He'll help you reel in something exciting, no matter the species or your skill level. Join him in Marathon, Florida and take home a catch to remember.
Step aboard a 26' Parker powered by a 250 HP Yamaha engine. With a maximum cruising speed of 35 knots, this vessel will get you to the fishing grounds in no time. She comes equipped with GPS, fishfinder, and a live bait well. An onboard toilet caters to your comfort. There's room for up to four passengers on board and children are welcome.
Weather permitting, Capt. Dan will take you five to six miles from shore, where you can fish the reefs for Triggerfish and various kinds of Snapper and Grouper. These are some of the most delicious species in the sea, and you're welcome to take a few home to try for yourself! You are likely to catch many other fish while casting lines near the reefs, including sharks, Mackerel, Jacks, and more. In winter, you can also kite fish for Sailfish and King Mackerel.

We had an amazing trip with him! if you want an experienced captain that knows his stuff please book with him! Ge is also great with kids! We caught 17 yellow tail snappers! sharks were eating the groupers.. not captains fault! very nice man.. came home with about 10 pounds of fish that he fillet for us! we will definitely book with him again when we come back! highly recommend!!
Thoroughly enjoyed an afternoon spent with my wife Bonnie, Captain Dan, and First Mate Jamie fishing in the Keys. Great company and weather. Greeted at the dock by a manatee and several large tarpon feasting on the snapper scraps. Star of the day was Boo Boo (ref. Yogi the Bear 😂), Jamie’s Maltipoo, a real sea dawg and cute as they come. Enjoyed Bonnie’s fresh caught mangrove snapper with huachaningo ala veracruzana sauce following the trip. Five Stars all around!
Capt Dan was great. He’s very experienced, knowledgeable, and friendly. He put us in the right spot to limit out on yellow tail and grouper. Follow his advice and you’ll have your best chance at catching the most fish. He took care of everything, all we had to do was show up and fish. Highly recommend him.
captain Dan has a lot of experience and showed us how to fish for various types of fish ! The finale at his house with him fileting the catch is also a very cool time !
thank you, I enjoyed it also
We had a great day with Captain Dan. At first the trip was canceled due to the possibility of bad weather. But, after an updated weather forecast, we trudged forward. While we didn't have great luck catching keeper fish, we had a fabulous day with Captain Dan. He taught us about fishing that only an experienced fisherman knew about. He took his time teaching my teenage son and daughter Riverhow to fish. I highly recommend Shark Charters.
