Had an awesome Solomon guided fishing trip with Dave the captain of Ocean Obsession this morning he has a positive outlook and great attitude. When most guides would not go out because it was possibly to windy he said not to worry he knows the waters and we would be good. Dave is very professional and a great fisherman with him lots of experience in this area we caught two great Solomon and they were the biggest of the day. Even when we were told by other people that Solomon were really slow. If you are thinking about fishing for Solomon Dave is the Gide for your trip. I would not hesitate to book another trip with him again
