Proud US Navy sailor…
218 customer reviews and over 25 years of fishing the everglades both Chokoloskee and Flamingo. Join Captain DJ for a variety of trips on the beautiful waters of Everglades National Park and find out what ARF Charters LLC is all about. Capt. DJ is a US Navy veteran with an honest attitude towards his business and his life in general. He’s also great with kids – so bring the whole family for a day to remember. He tailors each trip to the client at hand and will never stop on the hunt for great fish.

And there is plenty of fish to go after. Your trip could see you reeling in Redfish, Trout, Snook, Tarpon, Black Drum, Tripletail, and more. With such a variety of species, you will need a mix of quality equipment to get the most out of your day. That’s exactly what you get, with the option to spin, jig, pop, drift fish, and bottom fish – you can even bring your fly rod along if you want to!

Capt. DJ’s 23’ C-Hawk boat was born to dominate these shallow waters. Fresh off the line in 2021, the boat can carry four guests out in comfort and at speed. With twin power poles 10’, 2 GPS, and a state-of-the-art, new spot lock 36 V trolling motor, the hawk is up to date with the latest technology and innovations available in the marine industry.

The tackle provided consist of BGs 3000 Daiwa reels along with 7’ Bullsbay light tackle rods made in the USA.

ARF Charters LLC has trips to fit any schedule or budget, with 4, 6, and 8-hour charters at starting times to suit you. Children of all ages are welcome on board, and life vests will be provided for them.

All rods, reels, lures, and licenses are included, as is the cleaning and filleting of all your fish.

Capt DJ will also take you to your favorite camping island and pick you up if camping is your passion.
Capt. Kent Daniels partners with ARF and is the only capt that DJ works due to his local knowledge.
