A life long fisherman and surfer, Captain David J Luther has been charter fishing for over 10 years. Originally from South Florida, Captain Dave has traveled all over Central America and has planted roots in Popoyo, Nicaragua, his favorite corner of the ocean. Dave’s professional experience includes trolling the Gulf Stream off the coast of St. Augustine, FL as well as chasing giant tuna down the coast of Baja California. Passionate about pushing the limits of light tackle and pursuing trophy gamefish, Captain Dave is very excited to be one of only a few captains exploring the potential of this new fishery. With his many years of experience with anglers of all skill levels, Captain Dave can help ordinary anglers become extraordinary fishermen.
Due to its remote location, the waters outside of Astillero Bay are best accessed by a panga. A tough and seaworthy fiberglass hull, these pangas can be easily hauled up the beach. Our boat, is a traditional panga that has been rigged for sport fishing and has a hard top providing plenty of shade. It is powered by a 75 hp Yamaha outboard and cruises comfortably at 15 knots. Outfitted with VHF Radio and GPS it is ready to get you to and from the fishing grounds in style. A complete set of Shimano TLD reels and of course plenty of casting and bottom fishing gear is provided.
