Background
Capt. Dave runs trips out of Kailua-Kona aboard a 30’ Precision offshore sport fishing vessel. These waters are known for Marlin and Mahi Mahi and he will show you how to catch them. With extensive knowledge of the area, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
