DAVE WILLIAMS, NEW SKIPPER ON THE CHEROKEE GEISHA

Hatukazi · Jul-13-2007, 10:37 AM

EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY: Dave Williams is the new skipper on the CHEROKEE GEISHA. For those of you who have fished the tuna fleet out of San Diego, the name Dave Williams will bring a smile to your face. Dave spent 10 years as the skipper of the New Lo-an, where he was considered the hottest skipper in San Diego. For the past 7 years, Dave has been the second ticket on the Big Game 90. We invite Dave's old and new friends to join Dave and the crew on the CHEROKEE GEISHA, the open party boat out of H&M Landing.

Still wont fish that boat ever again! Unless maybe it gets new owner who cares about the operation.

Ethan, I am in the process of buying the vessel out of the partnership that has owned it since 1984. You can check my other operations to determine the quality of the operation I run. Check out the vessels INTERNATIONAL STAR and the SAMURAI and you will get glowing reports on both. I would like for u to tell me more of the problem u have, please email me at samuraifishing@sbcglobal.net. If I can, I will make the situation right for you and other anglers who might have had a similar experience. All we ask is to give us a chance, we do not guarantee you will catch fish but we do guarantee that we will run a quality operation.

Dave is an extremely talented Captain, he also ran the Holiday for a year or two. Fished with him many times.

Congrats Dave,
Hook up! Cory

I have only been in so. ca. for a short time this is my first Albie season. I am very concerned from what I have been told about the Cherokee Geisha, but if you are going to guarantee that it will be a class operation I will take you at your word. Myself and four others were going to cancel our res. and go to San Clemente instead. I hope you are not just talking. We will report back and let everybody know after Saturdays overnighter how it went. Looking forward to a class trip.

I have fished the Geisha 4 times in 5 years, got my first albie on the first one, the other three trips are not in my memory , I would try it again, why not ?? whats an overnight trip cost on the Geisha

Fished around the International Star on Wednesday. It was pretty cool. We gave her enough room to move and she didn't make any "I'm the big bad sporty" moves. Even when other boats that were hooked up drifted a little too close, she kept about the busness of catching fish and not making bullshit threats.

Good luck with your venture.
