Fishing with Dave

The four of us had a great time and each of us got to bring  in multiple fish. The boat is clean and in great condition. The captain gave us several fish options  and locations. The friendly first mate was hard working and enjoyed what he was doing. We have no complaints and would do again 

Fun 6 hr 

We went out 7/28/24, the crew did a great job having a plan for getting us on fish! We were on a short trip, 4 hours , and  we got enough snapper to feed 15!! The crew was fun , knowledgeable , and took time to teach you the 101 of basic fishing ! There were 5 of us and we all had time to bring up the fish! 
If you are looking to book a trip and you are unsure which boat/crew/team to go with .....I can assure you THIS  boat and crew won't let you down !! BOOK IT TODAY AND HAVE FUN ! 

Snapping Good Time 

Caught several tunies and hooked an almost 4 foot barracuda and got him in the boat.
Sometimes you got to wana a.
I’ll be back to fish with these guys.

Hard Working 

We had a great time and caught some fish. It can be difficult to find outdoor activities that are accessible for my disabled son. These guys made sure he was involved and got in on the action. Thank you for a memorable trip!!

Great time!!

My son caught a 7ft hammerhead shark & I got a tasty Wahoo! 1st mate did an awesome job with rigging and getting the fish while the Captain Dave handled the boat during some really choppy waves. Definitely recommend booking, if your looking to catch fish! 

Great 3/4 day trip with Capt. Dave! 

Conditions weren’t the best but Capt Dave and his first mate Dave worked their asses off and we ended the day with 2 barracuda, 2 blackfin, and a 50” wahoo! Very informative guys and the boat was very nice would def recommend! 

3/4 day 

January may be Fort Lauderdale's coldest month, but the fishing is hot. Often, the worse the weather, the better the fishing. Windy conditions get Sailfish biting like crazy. Swordfishing can be very good.

February is the month of the Wahoo in Fort Lauderdale. This means fast trolling and faster action. Look out for Blackfin Tuna 'busting' schools of baitfish over reefs and make the most of the awesome Sailfish bite.

Spring is Fort Lauderdale's best fishing season. Troll, bottom fish over shipwrecks, fish over the reefs with live bait - everything is biting. Mahi Mahi arrive close to shore when the east winds blow. Kingfish and Amberjack are caught at the reefs.

The great spring bite continues, with wreck fishing getting better and better. Mahi Mahi are biting extremely well in relatively shallow water (200-300 ft). The rougher the weather, the better the fishing for this species.

Mahi Mahi continue to bite within a few miles of the coast, with Blackfin Tuna also red hot. Amberjacks are caught over wrecks in waters 200-300 ft deep. This is usually the beginning of the open Grouper season.

The reefs are the place to go at this time of year. Catch Kingfish and Tuna here as well as Bonito, which are migrating along the coastline. This is also one of the best times to catch Sharks in Fort Lauderdale.

The weather heats up, but that doesn't put a stop to the fishing. This is one of the best months for Snapper and Grouper fishing, particularly at night. Trolling for Bonito and Kingfish over the reefs is very successful.

The seas are calm and tranquil, with surface temperatures being very hot. This makes deep drop fishing offshore a very good choice, with deeper dwelling fish being less affected by the temperature change further up.

Temperatures usually start to cool by the end of the month, inviting a greater number of surface fish. Sailfish might start showing up, with Kingifsh still being active over the reefs. Tarpon is great inshore.

As the weather transitions to Fall, winds tend to pick up. This brings pelagics closer to shore, with fishing for Mahi Mahi and Sailfish being very good, and a great variety of pelagics biting over the reefs.

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.

Winter is not something that should put you off fishing in Fort Lauderdale. You can expect a good bite from Sailfish and Mahi Mahi nearshore, with Tuna, Wahoo, Cobia, and Amberjack around the reefs.
