Captain
David Wright

Member since February 2025 Stuart, United States
Background
Capt. David runs trips out of Stuart aboard 32' SeaCraft 32 Center console. This area is known for Wahoo, Vermilion Snapper and Gag Grouper and you'll get to catch them using bottom fishing, trolling, drifting, jigging, or other techniques. For special requests, such as kite fishing, message Capt. David. Capt. David decided to follow his lifelong dream of running a charter business in 2024 and sold his boat repair business to make that dream a reality. Captain David has 37 years experience fishing his home waters of Stuart, Fl.
Techniques
My personal favorote style of fishing is for large bottom fish such as mutton snapper, gag grouper and other snapper and grouper species. I also love to kite fish for large pelagics such as Tuna, Mahi, Sailfish and while waiting for a strike using a newer technique of fishing called slow pitch jigging which allows you to stay busy on a rod and reel while drifting live baits from a kite.
