    Dunn Deal is the Reel Deal

    Offshore Gulfstream- Mahi,Tuna • 4 adults

    Captain Shaun and First Mate Clayton were incredible. The fish weren't really hitting for any of the Captains the day we went fishing. Captain Shaun and Clayton did EVERYTHING they could to make sure we caught a many fish as possible and we did. Only one boat beat us by 20lbs of fish, one boat only came in with three fish, we caught 27 and had an amazing day on the water. Captain Shaun and Clayton know the waters and how to get the fish. We are booking another trip next year and going for it again. Many THANKS to Captain Shaun and First Mate Clayton for an experience we will never forget and the upcoming new adventure!!! Book with Dunn Deal, you will NOT regret it.

    Reported catch:
    Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)

    Non Stop Catching

    Fall Live bait for tuna and kings • 6 adults

    Our day of fishing was fun, action packed and exceeded every expectation. Despite the wind, kind of rough water and a little sea sickness, we were beyond pleased with our trip. Captain Shaun and First Mate Matt really delivered. From the time the first bait hit the water we were hooked up, often times with 3-4 fish on at the same time. Shaun and Matt were absolute beasts, working like mad to keep the action coming. in short order our limit was a “Dunn Deal”. They were prepared and willing to keep us fishing for other species, but due to sore arms (from reeling in big fish) and a couple of sore stomachs, we chose to head back to land. We are so appreciative of their efforts and HIGHLY RECOMMEND Captain Shaun, Matt and Dunn Deal Sportfishing. The Lord is good and I hope he blesses us with the opportunity to fish with them again.

    Great Day Fishing!

    Offshore Gulfstream- Mahi,Tuna • 2 adults

    We be just got done with an off shore all day Trip with Dunn Deal Sport fishing and we couldn’t have asked for a better day on the water. Shaun suggested getting an earlier start and glad we did as we crushed the black fin tuna in the early hours. The boat was comfortable and well maintained. Clay was a fantastic first mate that helped us get the fish in the boat! We caught Black Fin Tuna, Sea Bass, Red Snapper, Sand Tiger Shark to name a few! Book with these guys and have a killer day!

    Reported catch:
    Blackfin Tuna

    Only been on 4 deep sea trips, by far this was the best even though the weather kinda sucked limited out on Mahi by 10:30. Continued to fish ended up catching a sailfish, and releasing, great day

    e had an amazing time on our fishing charter! Captain Dunn and the clay were friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. They made sure everyone felt comfortable, whether it was your first time fishing or not. The boat was clean and well-equipped, and the whole experience was well-organized from start to finish. Best of all, we caught fish! Everyone in our group reeled in something, and the crew made sure we had plenty of action and fun along the way. If you're looking for a fun, successful day on the water with a top-notch team, I highly recommend this charter. We'll definitely be booking again!
