Crystal River Fishing Charters & Homosassa Charters

Another cold ride on the way to the grouper grounds, but the weather was quite better for us today. Jim, Bill and Roland were my guest and grouper was on the menu. We ran to one of my favorite areas and had a great day on the grouper. The shorts kept us busy until the tide got right, but the keepers started coming out soon after. We lost a couple good ones too; a terrific trip and I thank you... Capt. Dan

Well, the weather got us today and it was pretty cold and rough on the big pond. I had the Class family on board and grouper were are target. The seas were rolling pretty hard and limited us on where we could go. I was fortunate enough though, to put Sandra on her first grouper and it was a beauty. Unfortunately, there wasn't much action afterwards; so we called it a day hoping for better conditions next time. I thank you all and I'll see you in the future... Capt. Dan

Always a great day with Dan, Joe and Lauren on board and these gentlemen had a good one. We reached the gulf to absolute glass clam conditions and started the trip jigging up a fine catch of trout. Glow colored MirrOlure Lil' Johns were the bait of the day and they definitely kept the rods bent on the trout. Having the gulf so calm, we ran quite a bit offshore to the 30ft range and found a couple nice gags. The bite was slow and I hit several places before we found them, but we hung in there and it was a great day. I thank you guys and I look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

A couple days of down time for me as I hurt my back a bit on Wednesday. A couple days of rest, I'm feeling better and had a great day with Mike on board. Today was a beautiful day out of Crystal River and the trout and grouper action was good. The trout started our day along the rock bars and glow colored Lil' Johns did the trick. After a fine catch of trout, we covered some ground offshore and trolled up a pair of gags to wrap up the day. I had a great time Mike and great job my man... Capt. Dan

We hit the full moon blues today on the grouper with Pat and Mike, but the trout were on fire. I picked up the brother team at their house on the Crystal River and we headed west. The fog wasn't to bad today and it actually cleared nicely. The hot inshore trout action started our day and it was terrific.In short order we had a fine limit of trout and we then ran to grouperville. The grouper action was tough and we caught a few shorts, but managed a nice keeper for the afternoon. Always a great time with you both and we had a fine catch - I look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

Another stressful day behind the wheel, with the dense sea fog offshore. Dan, Joe and Lauren were with me for the day and we cautiously eased our way off Crystal River and began the day on some fantastic trout action. We eventually reached our location and put the jigs in the water. Well folks, the trout bite was absolutely as good as it gets. In minutes, we had a beautiful limit of trout; plus released a few others. Next up, we spent the rest of the day covering the grouper grounds and found five fine gags to top off the day - plus a bonus triple tail. A foggy day for sure, but we had a great time and I thank you... Capt. Dan

Well folks, today the fog was thick as peanut butter and it was a wet, chilly ride. The team of Karl, Tom and Stephan were game and we eased our way through it. We safely made our way to our trout destination and jigged up a fine limit of trout with MirrOlure Lil'l Johns. Stephen had a plane to catch in the afternoon, so I just had a little time to find some grouper. I made a run to some rock piles and the team picked up a pair of fine keepers. Not the prettiest day, but we had a great time, some good laughs and I look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

We broke in the new engine today and it was a fantastic day in grouper land with Mishel and Earl. The conditions were a little bumpy in the morning, but then calmed nicely. The grouper bite was really good around noon and we quickly brought in a limit of gags, plus released a few others. Rapala x-raps worked fantastic for us and Bunker was the flavor of the day. I always enjoy our days together and I thank you - until next time... Capt. Dan

We needed our seat-belts on today, as it was quite the rough one. Jason and Frank were game though, and we spent the day trolling up some gags. The water was pretty turned up from the conditions and the floating grass was an issue. However, we hung in there and picked up a couple nice grouper and released a couple shorts for the rough conditions. Always a great time with you both and I look forward to our next trip... Capt. Dan

A trout and grouper day once again and yesterdays passing front, did have an effect on the fish. Mike, Steve and Chris were my guests today and for the trout, you had to present the jig "sloooow". They did bite and the guys had a fine catch to show for it. Now the grouper action was off a bit, but mainly due to the dirty water from yesterday's winds. We caught a few shorts, but eventually we found a pair of nice keepers to wrap up the day. I thank you all and I always look forward to next time... Capt. Dan
