Gotcha

Captain David Jensen

Catch a lot of fish and have fun in the process. Hello, I’m Captain David Jensen and I operate the charter boat GOTCHA out of the world-renowned Hawks Cay Resort. I’m a born-and-raised, second generation Keys charter boat captain. I started mating on my dad’s boat on the weekends, summers and school breaks when I was twelve years old. I have had my USCG Master’s License for over 30 years, and I’m a proud father of three great children.

I thoroughly enjoy fishing with children and families, as well as advanced anglers. There’s no place that I would rather fish that here in the beautiful Florida Keys, and I hope you will join me aboard the GOTCHA.
