Captain Dave is a true professional. Great equipment, knowledgeable in finding fish in changing weather conditions. Was a little worried about fishing after a cold front, but Captain put us on the fish. Very accommodating and courteous. Very good day and will be booking again

We had such an amazing experience fishing with Captain David Stump. We had along our two boys, 7 and 9, and Captain was so awesome and patient with helping them fish and showing them what to do. It was a windy day and he powered through it with us and made it so much fun! We would recommend Salty Day Fishing!

Highly recommend Capt-David Stump 🤗 We had an absolute blast today! Although we took a chance going today as it was predicted to be really windy, Gage Slater and I had our time already booked 😳 and well… he and I have an agenda to keep and this mama has to go back to work too soon 😂 Captain David said it was our choice, but he would make the best of it! I absolutely said my prayers and well what do ya know… it was a beautiful day and an amazing time! Thank you Lord ❤️🙏 We experienced much wildlife… a large sea turtle (which I thought was an otter at first glance 🙄), a manatee, beautiful birds, dolphins as well as caught a large variety of fish including speckled trout, sand trout, squirrel fish, lady fish, ramora, sea bass, mackerel, lots of catfish, jack, pin fish and some sea grass 😂 EVERYONE caught a baby shark too 🤗 Thank you Captain David for a VERY eventful day, taking great care of us and answering all the questions for an inquisitive fisherman Gage ❤️ We would love to book another charter soon!

⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing day with Captain Dave!! 🤩  We caught a ton of fish 🎣 saw a bald eagle 🦅 & lots of dolphins 🐬. Dave was so knowledgeable, great with our kids & extremely helpful the entire time. He cleaned our fish for us before we parted ways, we can’t wait to get back to GA to cook it all up. Thank you Captain Dave!!

We had a salty day with Capt. Dave! He put in the extra effort to make sure we had a great day fishing in challenging conditions. It was a windy day that kept us inshore. We caught Several Speckled Trout, Mackerel, a Flounder and a Black Drum. Fought a few Bonnet head sharks and ladyfish, fun to fight but not suitable for the menu. Also saw a variety of wildlife to include Manatees, Pelicans, Cormorants and an Eagle! Captain provided everything we needed and will definitely look him up for our next day out. Thanks again Captain.
