Offshore Shopping....

What a day to go offshore. Phil and Joe had quite the trip and we loaded up on the mango's. I pushed on out to 35ft of water and freelined live shrimp on the rocks. Loads of sheepshead were released and just kept a few. A great day and I thank you.... Capt. Dan

1/2 day Mix....

A nice 1/2 day mix with the Barlow team for their second trip of the week. I had just done treatment Tuesday, but was feeling good enough to get a 1/2 day trip in. We did a little bit of rock hopping inshore and then jigged up a couple trout. A fun momring, caught a few fish and I thank you both... Capt. Dan

More Fog and good Mix...

More fun offshore and pretty much the same conditions as yesterday. A dense sea fog was brutal for the ride offshore and it was slow going. However, we reached or spot and the rods stayed bent. All the offshore species kept us busy and a lot of hog fish today. Most were under sized, but a couple keepers made their way home. A great ride home as the fog cleared and I thank you all... Capt. Dan

Foggy Mix....

Super foggy out on the big pond today folks, but the bite was great. We pushed offshore to the 30ft range and had non stop action with grunts, gags, hog fish, snapper, etc.... Live shrimp on knocker rigs was our technique to get the bites and Dan, Lauren and Joe stayed busy. Joe caught big sheepshead of the season with it close to 13lbs and we took a couple pictures and watched her swim away. You guys were great and I thank you all.... Capt. Dan

Offshore Goodies....

What a gorgeous day to go offshore and Mark and Craig had an awesome trip. I pushed on out to 40ft of water today and the snapper bite was great. The team secured a beautiful limit of keeper mangos, plus some hefty sheepshead as well. We used close to 300 shrimp and it was a busy day of catching. I thank you both and terrific job... Capt. Dan

Cold, Cold, Cold....

My goodness, probably the coldest I've been on the water in sometime; but we made it happen. It's been tough to make it out lately between the weather and my treatments I've been doing. Today though, was definitely doable, just the cold to contend with and we did well. I had the boys on board and we stayed busy offshore with grunts, snapper, grouper and sheepshead. A busy day catching and live shrimp was our bait of choice... Capt. Dan

Wow... Some big dogs on today's trip with the Swain team and once again we pushed offshore quite a bit. The seas were a bit bumpy, but doable with a good ground swell that made you have your sea legs. Jim and Jimmy did a really nice job turning some big ones and a whopper at around 20lbs topped off our day. Just dropping down pin fish did the trick and a couple mangos were added as well. I thank you both and I'll see you next time... Capt. Dan

Crystal River Mango's....

The Hill family was on board with me today and we sure had the weather to go offshore. I loaded the box with 300 shrimp and we headed West. I pulled up to one of the pieces of bottom that was holding fish a couple weeks ago and it was one stop shopping. The team just about put a limit of 30 mango's on ice, plus lots of action with grouper, grunts and hogfish. The kids were great and I thank you all for the super day... Capt. Dan

Offshore Fun Day Three...

Day three with Uncle Phil and not to sound like a broken record, but really good fishing and absolutely beautiful weather. The big difference today was my goodness, the sheepshead were fired up. They were almost on the surface in a ball behind the boat eating the shrimp we were using. We just kept a couple and released close to 40 I bet. Lots of quality gags as well were released and the grouper season is looking VERY VERY good. Great job as always.... Capt. Dan

More Crystal River Offshore...

The picture perfect weather continues and Phil and I had a blast for his day two. We pretty much stayed offshore for the day bouncing around and catching a mixed offshore assortment. You really can't beat the action and for rod bending fun, it's definitely where its at - plus the fish are tasty. A great time and I'll see you tomorrow... Capt. Dan
