Captain
David Spahr
Member since February 2021
Hilton Head Island, United States
- Background
- Captain David used to work for a ferry boat operation with a captain who also ran fishing charters part-time and who asked him to mate with him on those fishing charters. Captain David accepted and they started running full-day charters to the “Snapper banks”. So, about 40 miles offshore, he learned to bottom fish. It was a fast and furious way to learn but he loved it. He knew that fishing would be a way of life for him from then on. After a couple of years working there, he did a tour in the USCG. Returning to the area, he found myself back doing fishing charters as a mate. After a couple of years on deck, Captain David obtained his captain’s license and began running charters.
- Techniques
- At anchor or drifting using live bait or chunk bait. Sight casting with spinning gear to surfacing fish. The surprise of a fish hitting a bait and stretching the line is always exciting!
