Real Testimonials from Burial at Sea Families
Here’s what families are saying about their experience with Captain Dave and Wild Rover III Burial at Sea services
“Captain Dave and Adam were awesome. Put 32 Spanish mackerel in the boat. Great time. Highly recommend this charter.”
Kevin Grindstaff“Great time with these guys!! Highly recommend!”
- HENDRIX“Captain Dave and first mate Blake gave us a great afternoon of fishing. Caught lots of Spanish mackerel. Blake did a great job cleaning and bagging them after the trip. They did a great job entertaining our 9 year old. He even got to drive the boat. The 9 year-old got to reel in the downriggers because we weren't sure he could reel in the actual poles, which was perfect!”
