Crystal River Fishing Charters & Homosassa Charters

After yesterday's very successful day of grouper prospecting, I was anxious to have Joe and Joanne on board and head to the grouper grounds. Today was great and the weather, equally well. The grouper action was good, except for the usually dead hour in between tide changes. The husband and wife team fished with me several times this fall season.I'm very grateful to you both and we've made several great memories. I look forward to seeing you in the spring and enjoy all the fillets... Capt. Dan

I don't get many days during grouper season to go exploring, but today my good long time friend Jason joined me to go "looking" and tackle some gags. We left the dock at 9am and headed offshore. On just about every charter I run, I'm constantly looking for new good bottom and marking such places. Today was recon day and the various marks I've made, paid off. He and I found a handful of good little spots and we were rewarded with a limit of fine gags. A very fun day for me and I really enjoyed it bud... Capt. Dan

I was fortunate to have Joe, Deanna and Rich on board today and also put them on their first groupers. The weather was perfect for grouper and we did well. The bite was a bit later today, but when it turned on it was good. We Caught grouper on every drop for almost and hour and turned some fine fish. The team brought in four fine gags and we stopped on the keys for three slot red fish on the way home. A great day and I thank you all for the fun time... Capt. Dan

What a pleasure to have Casey on board today, the owner of Sodium fishing gear here in Crystal River and we had a ball. The days plan was to grab a couple gags and we did just that. Casey brought in a pair of heavy weight grouper and one was topping 18lbs. With two fine grouper on ice, we made a quick drift for some trout and caught a couple nice ones and we called it a day. A great morning and I thank you my man... Capt. Dan

It wasn't chilly on the big pond today - it was "COLD". From fog, light drizzle and overcast skies, this was a cold one on the water. Joe and Joanne were with me again and we had a nice little mix. We trolled up some grouper and had some excellent red fish action on the afternoon incoming tide. The red fish were really the stars today as the action was excellent with close to twenty slot fish in just two stops. A great day and I'll see you soon... Capt. Dan

Wow!!! What a day offshore. Mishel and Earl were with me for day two for a Sunday fun day and the grouper were on. I truly believe this super moon has driven some really large grouper inshore, as we caught some in the 17lb to 20lb class today. They're not feeding all day, but if you know when and what stage of the tide to be on your favorite spot; it's pretty incredible. I thank you both for a fantastic couple days and here's Mr. Earl with a monster Gag... Capt. Dan

The weekend of the super moon and the big gags are definitely on the feed. Mishel, Earl and Jason were with me for the day and they turned some good ones. I covered some ground and when the seas calmed some, the grouper turned on. I always like a good chop on the water, but not to rough; for ideal grouper conditions. The team brought some beautiful fish home and here's Mishel with the big one of the day... Capt. Dan

Glass calm conditions today for Rick, Larry and Mark and these gentlemen tackled some fine grouper. With the gulf being so nice, we made the long run West. I fished some areas I haven't been to in quite sometime and it definitely paid off. The team was able to turn some fine grouper and we released several shorts for the day. I thank you all for the great day and I look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

An absolute beautiful day out of Crystal River with Joe and Joanne and the red fish really got our day going. The tide was coming in nicely when I reached the outer keys and live shrimp on the rocky points gave us some great red fish action. We had a double digit day on one point and then we tried our luck for grouper. We moved around rock to rock catching several small grouper, but eventually a couple nice keeper gags came on board - plus one got eaten by a jewfish on the way in. A fun time with you both as always and I'll see you soon... Capt. Dan

The wind backed off for us today and allowed the tide to come in for us this morning, and Pat and Laura Lou caught some red fish to start our day. The red fish were running tight in the mullet schools and the action was good. A live shrimp in the mullet action produced the reds and we caught a good bakers dozen of slot fish before we tried our luck for grouper. The grouper action was slow again, but we were able to pick up a pair of keepers before we called it a day. I thank you both for the fun time and here's one of today's gags from our trip... Capt. Dan
