Captain Ali Hussainy
30+ years on the water — from Southern California to fisheries around the world.
Ali is the host of Local Knowledge and President of BD Outdoors, one of the largest fishing communities in the world.
Ali has been fortunate to fish with many of the best captains around the world and has brought that experience to his own “backyard”. This broad perspective on sportfishing has helped Ali become one of the most respected captains on the West Coast.
His approach is simple:
Understand the system. Apply proven techniques. Fish with purpose.
Education Focus
This is where Brass Monkey separates itself.
We don’t just take you fishing — we show you how it’s done.
From kite fishing with flying fish to advanced tuna systems, every trip includes real-time instruction designed to elevate your skill level.
You’ll leave with more than just fish — you’ll leave with knowledge.
