<p>Captain Omar Goff is deeply rooted in Cayman Islands fishing traditions. Raised on Grand Cayman, he comes from a long line of local fishermen who relied on the sea for survival. His grandfather fished for turtles in a very different era, and his father and uncles continued the tradition with rod and reel. Captain Omar grew up immersed in this way of life, learning firsthand how to read the water, understand the seasons, and fish responsibly. It’s more than a profession—it’s a legacy passed down through generations.</p><p><br></p><p>As a young boy, Omar—also known as “Burgz” by those who know him—learned to fish by watching and working alongside his family. He recalls days spent on the water absorbing every technique, from anchoring over reefs for snapper to trolling for offshore species like wahoo and tuna. Fishing isn’t just something he does—it’s who he is. His experience is more than just years; it’s a lifetime shaped by the tides, the weather, and the traditions of the Cayman Islands.</p><p><br></p><p>Captain Omar’s style is calm, knowledgeable, and quietly confident. He’s approachable and easy to talk to, whether you're a seasoned angler or new to deep sea fishing. What sets him apart is his ability to adapt each trip to the needs and goals of his guests. He knows where the fish are biting, what bait they’re chasing, and the best times to hit specific areas like the 12-Mile Bank, Pickle Bank, or further afield to Little Cayman and Cayman Brac. With Omar at the helm, you’re not guessing—you’re learning from someone who’s spent his entire life on these waters.</p><p><br></p><h2>The Boat – Morning Spirit</h2><p>Morning Spirit is a 34′ Crusader built for one purpose—fishing. With a wide beam and plenty of deck space, it comfortably accommodates up to six anglers. While the boat skips a few modern luxuries, it more than makes up for it with functionality and performance. Outfitted with outriggers, a downrigger, electric reels, and a fighting chair, Morning Spirit is ready to troll six lines at once and chase down big game fish. It’s a serious fishing platform, helmed by someone who knows how to use every inch of it.</p>
