    Captain Dave Made Our Honeymoon Fishing Trip Extra Special

    4 Hour Trip – Bass Fishing (AM) • 2 adults

    My wife and I had an amazing fishing trip with Captain Dave during our honeymoon. He showed up on time, was very professional, and clearly knew the area well. He was extremely knowledgeable about the different fish species and wildlife, and he took us to several great spots throughout the trip. We ended up catching over a dozen largemouth bass and even a longnose gar, which made the day really exciting. Captain Dave was very attentive the entire time, making sure we always had bait on the line and that the boat was positioned in the right direction. He also had a really cool fish finder/radar system that showed where the fish were and what the bottom of the water looked like, which added a fun and interesting element to the experience. We even got to see an alligator from a safe distance, which was a memorable bonus. Overall, we really enjoyed Captain Dave’s company, and he did a wonderful job as captain of the boat. He made our honeymoon extra special, and we would absolutely recommend booking a trip with him!

    Amazing morning with family!

    2hr Bass Fishing • 3 adults • 1 child

    We had such an amazing morning on the water! Our family had a blast catching bass, and we landed eight in the boat with plenty of action the whole trip. We even had a huge one get right to the boat before breaking off, which made for an unforgettable story. It was fun, exciting, and such a great family experience. We would absolutely recommend this trip to anyone looking for a memorable day of fishing!

    Amazing Experience

    2hr Bass Fishing • 3 adults • 2 children

    Captain David was fantastic! He took me and my 7- and 9-year-old sons out for a 2-hour trip, and we had an amazing time. He was great with the kids, handled everything, and made the whole experience fun and stress-free. Best of all, this was the first time my boys ever caught bass in Florida! The only complaint they had was wishing they could have stayed out even longer. Highly recommend!

    Reported catch:
    Largemouth Bass
    Response from Captain

    Thanks Robert had a great time with the boys.

    Exactly what i was looking for!!

    3 Hour Bass Fishing am • 2 adults

    Wanted to take my husband bass fishing without the hassle of getting our own rods and bait and this was PERFECT!! Capt Dave was easygoing, comfortable to chat with, knew ALL the good spots, and i appreciate him recommending the morning trip, because even though we got up early it was WORTH IT! We caught sooo many fish the first half of the trip bright and early! He took us all over and took our pictures. It was awesome! We had such a great, comfortable time. Highly recommend this experience!!
