Crystal River Fishing Charters & Homosassa Charters

Much better conditions today and "Uncle" Phil was in town from Pennsylvania. It's always a fun time when he's here and we had an awesome catch today. A pair of red fish started our day on an oyster bar and it was two cast's, two fish. Sheepshead were up next and we soon enough had a fine catch. We left the sheepshead and ran down some triple tail for our mid day in between tide changes - they are always a welcomed surprise. To end the day we jigged with MirrOlure Lil' Johns and a good catch of trout made their way on board. A fun 1st day buddy and I'll see you tomorrow... Capt. Dan

A stellar day with Lauren, Dan and Joe and the Villages team hit it out of the park. Our trip began on a quick offshore run before the wind picked up and the sheepshead bite was fast and furious as it could be. Soon as we dropped it was fish on and some beauty's at that. The seas picked up though and we moved around inshore out of the wind best we could and secured some fine trout on DOA jerk baits. You guys are so great to fish with and another fun day... Capt. Dan

A beautiful day with the Riley team and even though it was a pretty cold start to the day. it warmed up nicely. I picked up the team from the Plantation on Crystal River and we began dropping down on some sheepshead bottom. The bites weren't furious, but steady enough to keep us interested. We kept all we needed and added some trout to the mix on jigs. I thank you both and great job... Capt. Dan

A perfect trip today with Larry, Dean and Nathan - and the weather was fabulous too. The wind was down so that gave us the freedom to go anywhere we wanted. The gang and I spent the morning jigging up some really nice offshore trout on MirrOlure Lil Johns. Fifteen beauty's came on board and we spent the rest of the day picking up a couple surprise sheepshead, triple tail and red fish. I thank you all and always look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

A beautiful February Spring day with Mike, Bryan and Mike on board and these gentleman had an awesome day. On today's trip, I ran offshore a bit and we jigged our way to some real nice quality trout. Root beer colored Lil' Johns were the flavor of the day and we caught numerous grouper, sea bass and a mackerel as well. I made one more try for sheepshead, but we only caught two as I truly believe, unless we get a cold front - the season is over. A fun day with you all and great catch guys... Capt. Dan

The fog was thick as peanut butter offshore today, but my team and I was ready to push though it. Well, that's just what we did and Ed and Bill did a fine job on the sheepshead. I moved around in the 20ft range and we caught some beautiful sheepshead, but holy "COW" the grouper were on fire. On a conservative guess, we released over 50 grouper and it was a blast on light tackle. You guys were great and I look forward to next time... Capt. Dan

Always a fun time with Ron, Lauren and Jim and these guys had solid day. We began the trip dropping down shrimp on some ledges and did just fine with some good looking sheepshead. They were biting steady and so were the gags, as they kept us busy as well. As the tide came in, we swapped gears and finished up the day catching a few trout. We caught some real quality fish on jerk baits and I thank you guys as always for the fun time... Capt. Dan

As I cleaned the boat this morning, I saw the first signs of spring with lots of yellow pollen coming off. This means it's just about trout time and we sure found some today with the Sumner team. I had the guys for their last of the 4 day fishing adventure they've been on, and I had them the last two days. Good trout action for us with MirrOlure Lil Johns to get the day going and it was great to see some nice trout. The guys and I also ran offshore quite a ways and did pretty well on the sheepshead to finish up the day. A fun trip with you all, I thank you and you have plenty of goodies to take back home... Capt. Dan

A mix of trout and Sheepshead today with the Sumner team and we did OK; for the choppy and extremely foggy conditions. I met the gang at the Plantation on Crystal River and we were greeted to dense fog conditions. It might as well been raining for how wet we were, but we pushed through it. The guys jigged up a couple nice trout before we ran to sheepshead land on MirrOlure Lil Johns. The sheepshead were biting pretty good right away, but soon enough the winds picked up and the sea's got quite rough. We ran inshore some, picked up a couple more nice sheepshead and another great day on the big pond is in the books... Capt. Dan

What a day with Dave and Danny on board and these gentlemen caught some big ones. As you know from my previous reports, this Sheepshead season has been off a bit and I believe the harsh January winter is to blame. Today though, we ran offshore quite a ways and the sea's were absolutely perfect for doing so. We stayed just inside the 30ft range and the big whopper Sheepshead were there. I made a couple drops and by just after noon, we had a really nice catch. You both are always a blast to have on board and great job team... Capt. Dan
