A fantastic day inshore with the Coleman team and Clell and Bob had quite the day. I had yesterday off due to truck maintenance, but we began today on the outside keys and free lined live shrimp to produce the red fish to get the day going. The guys brought close to thirty red fish to the boat and it was an hour plus of double rod hook ups and - non stop action. After a great red fish bite, we used DOA deadly combos and tackled some trout off the keys to wrap up the day. A really great day and I thank you both for the fun time... Capt. Dan

Today was one of those late 4th quarter and seconds left on the clock kind of days.....  I had Shane and Ted on board today and we covered some ground. I began the day in the back country in hopes of a snook, but no takers today. The tide was dumping out hard which is usually productive, and at the same time, we tried for some trout- no willing fish. The wind calmed some and I made a run to try and troll up a grouper or two. Well, the water is dirty from the storm and the floating grass made it impossible to do so. I checked the tide stage and the tide was about to start turning in decent around 2pm. I made a long run, staked out and the red fish cooperated nicely. We had a solid hour of non stop action and three were on at a time. The red fish saved the day and I thank you both for sticking with it and congratulations on some fine red fish... Capt. Dan

Good to be back at the "office" but still saddened by some of the storms aftermath around the river. Today I had the Novinger family on board and we had a nice inshore slam. The family caught a couple snook, trout, red fish and a black drum. We used a variety of baits from jerk baits, cork rigs and live shrimp. The wind was huffing steady out of the East and the water looks very good considering what we've recently experienced. I always enjoy having you all on board and I look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

I just finished up shooting a great inshore episode of Flats Class TV with C.a. Richardson. The show will air in a couple weeks on Destination America channel, and it will showcase some of the great back country fishing we have here in Citrus County... Capt. Dan

A fantastic day inshore with the Advanced Turbine Support group out of the Plantation on Crystal River. Myself and fellow Homosassa Guides Association captains did well on the red fish and trout. My team of Brett, Rod and Mike had a double limit day with some fine red fish and quality trout. Live shrimp produced the red fish, while MirrOlure Lil' Johns tackled the trout. Some nice catches were brought back to the dock and I thank you all for the great day... Capt. Dan

A beautiful Saturday on the big pond with Marilyn and Dave and the team had a great day red fishing; plus picking up a pair of gags. We began the day from the Plantation on Crystal River and made our way to a couple outer keys and jumped right on the red fish. Free lined live shrimp worked beautifully on the red fish and the wind was calming down enough to troll up a couple grouper. We used Rapala CD 14's and trolled up a couple shorts, plus a pair of nice keepers. I always enjoy the day with you both and I look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

A great time with Chuck on board out of Homosassa and did we ever have a red fish bite going on. Our first two stops were unbelievable and we must have caught over 30 red fish. A combination of live shrimp and MirrOlure Lil' John's, did the trick. Chuck had his red fish fill and we spent the rest of the breezy day, throwing cork rigs and catching seven nice keeper trout. Always a good time buddy and I look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

I wouldn't say today was a cold front, but it was definitely the first stiff NE breeze of the upcoming fall season. I had the pleasure of having the North team on board and it was just to bumpy to go off for grouper. So, we played the inshore game and did very well. Red fish on the keys, and trout on the flats with cork rigs-we had a fun day. Watermelon red/fleck Lil' johns were the top producer for the trout and we picked up a couple of macks too. Thank you guys and I look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

A deep run today out to close to 40ft with Brian, Brad and Robert and these gentlemen had a killer day. The gulf was absolutely flat calm and we hammered down offshore. Our first drop was very productive. Big mangrove snapper and a couple keeper gags greeted us right away, plus a couple mackerel too. We moved around a couple times, but no more keeper grouper - the big snapper kept us busy though. With a good catch, we ran inshore, stopped on a key and caught a fine red fish and snook to wrap up an outstanding day. Thank you all so much and I really look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

Well, today was the first day I gave trolling for grouper a try for the 2016 season. Ron, Dick and Larry were with me for the day and we did well. We started the day using Rapala x-rap 20's and immediately hooked up. The guys had a couple doubles and although most were on the short side, we did land a nice keeper gag. We left the grouper trolling, made a quick stop at a rock pile for some snapper and grunts; then finished the day inshore. Each of the guys caught a fine slot red fish, plus a couple shorties to wrap up the day. A fun time and I look forward to next time. Here's Dick with his first keeper gag grouper.. Capt. Dan
