Fighting The King
Captain Orlando's Fishing Gear
fishing gear is important just as knowledge to find the fish and how to fight the fish to create the best fishing experience and results.
​
That's why I choose the best Fishing Gear I can put my hands on and maintain it like an expensive sports car. Yes, the boat is also Fishing Gear and you will see that "DORADO" has every single tool and gear available to make your day on the water.
