1st time inshore fishing
4 Hour Trip — Bay Fishing on May 27, 20262 adults
Despite the weather forcing us to change locations a few times we still were able to catch trout. Captain Daniel was awesome. We had a great time and brought several fish home.

Loved the trip with Captain Dan!
4 Hour Trip — Bay Fishing on June 30, 20254 adults
My wife and I took our two nephews fishing on our recent vacation in Destin. We all caught fish and had an all around great time! Captain Dan was very patient as several of us were novice fishermen. The boys loved the authentic nature of Captain Dan (he was born to be a charter boat operator in Florida!), and were talking about the trip for days. Will definitely do this again when we make it back to Destin.
