Background
Captain David started fishing at the age of 4 and he’s been hooked ever since. Anything from pitching crickets next to the bank to bluewater fishing for pelagic species. Captain David started his charter fishing career while he was in high school at 15 years old and has been in it for a little over 18 years now. It has always been a passion of his being on the water and making a living doing something he truly enjoys, fishing! To him, there’s nothing more exciting than watching a first-timer reel in a fish of their dreams or having a kid cheesing with their catch. The whole purpose is to go out and have a great day on the water making memories that’ll last a lifetime! The captain looks forward to meeting y’all.
