Truetolife Outdoors

Relax, fish, and take in the scenic beauty of Delaware’s rivers, canals, and bays with Truetolife Outdoors! Captain Dave Houser specializes in inshore and nearshore fishing for all levels of experience, from beginner to expert, and invites you to join him for a productive day of fishing.

You’ll be fishing the Lewes and Rehoboth Canal, Broadkill River, and the Rehoboth, Delaware, and Indian River Bays. Your main target species are Flounder, Striped Bass, Black Seabass, Bluefish, Weakfish, Spadefish, and more! Capt. Dave specializes in a wide range of techniques and will employ whatever is necessary to put you on fish.

On longer 8-hour trips, you’ll experience 2 full tides which increases your opportunities of catching some awesome species. The best time to fish is 2 hours prior to tide and Capt. Dave knows all the best spots to fish from during any time of day. In other words, you can count on him to put you in the right place at the right time! Shorter trips will most likely have you fishing one tide but there’s still a good chance you’ll be able to go home with something nice to grill up.

You’ll be fishing from a 20’ Pro-Line center console boat with state-of-the-art navigational and safety gear. The captain has 2 large live bait tanks and a smaller one for smaller fish. He has an icebox for you to store your catch and a cooler for you to keep snacks and drinks in.

You’ll be provided with top-of-the-line Tsunami rods and Daiwa reels. Live bait is prepared before the trip and is included in the price as well. Your fishing license is also covered.

Capt. Dave will take care of everything else so you can focus on what really matters, which is to experience the true beauty of nature in it’s most pristine form. Book your trip today, arrive 15–30 minutes early, and get ready for an unforgettable adventure with Truetolife Outdoors!

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
I've been fishing the Delaware waters since I was a teenager, as my parents had a place in DE. Every weekend we used to head to the Delaware Bay for fishing. Times have changed since then, and so have my fishing techniques! I've kept up with the changes. I also run sea duck hunts out of the same bay, so I am on the water almost all year.
