The Captain was very nice and accomedating he went put of his way to make sure we caught fish. we caught sailfish Marlin and skipjack.
Couldn't ask more from Cpt. Dave! He communicated with us prior to the trip very well and the setup was very quick. We met early in the morning and it was clear he has a passion for fishing, which was awesome. The entire time he made it feel like my son and I were friends out on the water, not clients. We ended up have some great catches and even hooked up with a marlin which ensued a long battle to reel him in. Ultimately ended up coming off the hook within the last 50', but amazing. My 9 year old son is now hooked on fishing and we will definitely use Cpt. Dave again!
We had the greatest time! Dave was awesome and so helpful. We were 4.5 hours into the trip and no fish, but then my husband caught a shortbill spear fish, and a short time later my son caught one! Captain Dave was very helpful through it all. We came home with enough fish to get us through the last two nights here on Hawaii. Loved the snacks and water, nice restroom on board too. We would definitely recommend!
We had the best day! The captain was chill 😎 and helped us through the entire experience. First time deep sea fishing and now we have a new found love! We caught 5 tuna (17-25lbs) and hooked 7. We didn't catch the elusive blue marlin but we did see another crew catch one in the distance so we had the chance to marvel in its magnificence. You can tell that Captain Dave loves what he does. He experiences the same joy as his customers when we celebrate each catch. Couldn't recommend him enough. 10/10
The trip surpassed my expectations by miles. My daughter caught a marlin, an ono and a tuna. Will definitely fish with capt Dave if I ever come back to Hawaii. 1000% recommend
Dave is a great guy, he has that down to earth, dry sense of humor that all great captains have. when the fish is on, dave is all business. he jumps into quarterback mode and uses the boat to help you get that fish in; it worked out great for us as we pulled in a 140 lb blue marlin within 20 minutes of the day starting.
