“Capt. Dave Pecci knows the Kennebec and surrounding waters like  Bill Belichick knows football. He should; he’s the real McCoy, a native-born son who cut his angling teeth right where he’ll take you fishing. Besides that, he’s also known to serve up a killer blueberry muffin.” –Jerry Gibbs, Fishing Editor, Outdoor Life.

 "Capt Dave Pecci is a can-do master guide who has at least as much fun chasing stripers around the Kennebec River as his sports do. He may insist on running you downriver in the fast lane at dark thirty, but you’ll enjoy the ride and be among the first to find the fish. Capt. Pecci talks wicked good Maine, keeps his boats and fishing gear in tiptop condition, and knows every underwater ledge and skinny water sand flat in one of the most beautiful tidal river systems in North America." Duncan Barnes Field and Stream Editor (retired)

"My wife and I have traveled from New Jersey year after year to fish with Dave. What sticks out the most is Dave's dedication to the sport of fishing and his love of the fish and the environment of the Kennebec River system. His knowledge of the striper fishing is unsurpassed. What you will bring from your experience fishing with Dave Pecci is a fondness of the fish you pursue, a respect for the Kennebec River area and a friendship will be born. Most of all will be a desire to return." Fred and Sara Bogue Medford, New Jersey

"By the summer of aught-five my wayward life had brought the vengeance of the Lord down on my family and my farm. The livestock was all dyin’ and the topsoil was a blowin’ away. My wife and daughter was broke out in a pox so bad you couldn’t hardly see their tattoos. My dog had give up on me and left for good. Then I booked a trip on Obsession Charters with Captain Dave. Since that day, my life has been truly blessed. Our pickled blueberry and lobster chutney won third prize at the Pasadumqueg Fair this past Fall. Business has done picked up so that I got the wife a rebuilt carburetor for her garden tiller. My rash has cleared up so nearly that I can ride my John Deere again. Life is good, thanks to Captain Dave and Obsession Charters."  anonymous(don’t want my wife’s brother to hear about our prosperousness)

"If a day on the water was just about having fun and catching fish, you'd be thrilled to have a guide like Dave Pecci. But if you really want to learn about the Kennebec and the big striped bass and bluefish that live there, look no further: Pecci is your man."
