Hardest Working Captain yields fun and...
By HILLARY - Apr 25, 2010

I have fished with Captain Dave for many years, mostly for striped bass. What makes this charter unique beyond the high catch rate - is that it is a hands on fishing with light tacke options. Captain Dave is also a great fisherman so if the action slows down - you will find him in the cockpit working extra hard to try different techniques or up on the bridge with binoculars, a cell phone and a chart to make sure we go back to the dock with fish and a great story. Captain Dave it the hardest working and focussed captain that I have ever been out with and I rely solely on him for my personal and business related fishing trips. If you give it a shot - be ready to fish! Richard Lindner.

I have not been disappointed on the two fishing trips I took on Purple Jet Fishing Charters! On my trip 5/20/10 I caught Stripers until I was TIRED of catching Stripers! Captain Dave & Captain John were nothing but helpful. We caught so many fish (legal size) we ended up releasing a number of them. It was an AMAZING day of fishing. I look forward to doing it again

Just wanted to thank you for an excellent trip yesterday. Our family truly enjoyed it and I'm sure we'll be talking about it for a long time! It was certainly everything we expected and more. I'm sure we will be seeing you again soon and we will be spreading the word as to how enjoyable our trip was.

Last summer, Capt Dave and his deckhand Rick, showed our family a wonderful time! We departed the Canyon River Club at 2:30pm for the Family Fishing Special. The boat was very clean and looked to be well maintained. My biggest worry about being on a boat for a few hours was the bathroom, but it was immaculate. Our family had never been deep sea fishing and my nephew Matt, 8 years old, was very excited. On our way out to the fishing grounds Rick went over all the fishing rods and gave instructions, just to make sure we had an idea of what to do. When we started to fishing, Capt Dave was on the deck helping us with the technique and Rick was busy netting fish and baiting our hooks. Matt's first fish was a Sea Robin, a funny looking fish with wing like side fins and pretty purple eyes. Capt Dave later told Matt he had to check on something and sure enough a keeper size fluke was on the line for Matt to reel in. He was all smiles from ear to ear. The trip was around 4 hours and we caught all sorts of fish:Fluke, Sea Bass, Sea Robins, Skates and even a few small Sand Sharks. My nephew thought that the Sharks were the best part of the trip! This was a great family outing! Thanks again for a fun time and our family is looking forward to this Summer's trip. Jenn Lynn
