Have been fishing since I was a kid in Ohio. Moved to Florida in 1985. Worked in tournament fishing. Started taking people out and fell in love with that! It's a real joy to take people fishing and enjoy the outdoors. Lots of smiles and laughs makes for a beautiful day!

    The Best Day!!!!!

    3/4 Day Trip • 4 adults

    If you’re looking for the best fishing guide, Dave is your guy—hands down. We caught soooo many fish it almost didn’t feel real. From the moment we got on the water, he knew exactly where to go and what to do. Super knowledgeable, easygoing, and made the whole experience fun whether you’re a beginner or seasoned angler. He kept us on fish the entire trip, helped with baiting, casting, and made sure everyone was reeling something in. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does, and it shows in the results. Highly recommend booking with Dave if you want an amazing day and a boat full of fish. We’ll definitely be back! 🎣

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 4 adults • 1 child

    There is no words to describe such an awesome experience! Captain Dave is a very experienced, knowledgeable, respected, and well rounded guy with a great sense of humor. The moment I shook his hand I could tell that he thoroughly enjoyed doing what he does and was looking forward to getting us on some fish. The three boys and I landed over 30 fish of 7 different species in roughly 2 hours of casting. Dave was kind, patient, and willing to share his knowledge (and even some good stories)! The boat was nice, clean, well equipped, and spacious enough for the 5 of us in total. We will absolutely be booking again with Captain Dave.

    Dave was great! The first rule of Dave’s boat, only Dave drives the boat! Other than that, just about anything goes, so makes it easy and fun. He knows the area well, knows whete the fish are, and has goid gear. Cant go wrong!

    my wife and I spent a lovely afternoon with Captain Dave on Halloween. It was a real treat, catching 15 fish, including a number of largemouth bass and a number of peacock bass. We also hooked a few exotic fish and even caught a gar. Captain Dave was accommodating, fun to spend the afternoon with, and extremely knowledgeable of the fishing area and the fish we caught. Would highly recommend captain Dave to anyone who wanted to have a great afternoon Fishing

What's biting with Bass Fishing Musician in Fort Lauderdale

Sailfish start to settle in earnest nearshore, chasing schools of mullet through Fort Lauderdale's famous 'Sailfish Alley'. Bottom fishing for Snapper and Grouper is excellent, with a host of species crowding the reefs.
