Member since June 2017 Ocean City, United States
Background
Captain Dave started fishing when he was 11 years old. Since then, he's been going back and forth from the Northeast to South Florida, spending an average of 200 days a year on the water. In his words, an hour on the water where the fish are is better than a full day anywhere else!
Techniques
I like to fish for just about everything, Sword fishing in Palm Beach is always a great challenge and a lot of fun.

Couldnโ€™t be more impressed with our day on the water. I have done multiple trips with multiple guides in many different locations...

Captain Dave and mate Austin were great, and Dock the dog was a nice addition to the crew. 10/10, would book again.
