Captain Dan took us out on a fishing charter a few weeks ago during our vacation at Tybee Island and it was the highlight of our trip, hands down. He is an expert in all aspects - the morning of, he contacted us to tell us rain was coming in and graciously moved our trip an hour up to get the best fishing weather. When we got out to the estuary, he explained how the weather could be to our advantage and where we would anchor because of that. We didn’t get any initial bites so He moved us literally a few inches, and that’s when we started catching them one after the other! My boyfriend had fished before but I had never done this, and Captain Dan was patient, knowledgeable, and so excited for me when I cast, reeled and caught my own!! We needed up catching a whopping 25 or so Red Drums. Although this was obviously thrilling, what made the trip so wonderful was the company. He is a terrific fishing instructor and person. We cannot thank you enough for the wonderful incredible day spent on Tybee waters. Back at the dock, he also processed the fish and sent us home with ice and cooking advice. If you’re wondering if you should book with Dan - DO IT! You’ll have the best day ever.

Captain Daniel was very knowledgeable and a all around great guide. Helped with fishing techniques not used back home in Indiana. Very personable experience. We missed our original date due to weather and he immediately rescheduled us for the next day. Didn’t disappoint. Next time we are thru we will definitely look him up again!

We booked the 3 hour kids trip for my niece who is turning 15. She wanted to catch a shark and Capt Dan did not disappoint! She ended up catching THREE sharks, a massive stingray and a nice size gator trout! He filleted the trout which we brought home! We also got to see a school of dolphins on the way back in, it was the perfect trip! Capt Dan was very friendly, knowledgeable and patient while teaching Aisleigh how to cast and reel. We will definitely book again!

Wind was a factor, but Capitan Dan used his extensive knowledge of the local waters to our advantage. I have had catching a Bull Redfish on my bucket list, and I hooked into one on our trip. It ran over an oyster bed and cut the line, but it was fun for a couple of minutes! I fully enjoyed our trip, and I recommend Hook and Cook highly. I will definitely use his services again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

I don’t k ow if any other human alive has the ability to say they’ve spent more hours on a vessel fishing with Captain Daniel than I have. He is a true one of a kind human being, and an amazing guide and angler. No one i know, has the wealth of knowledge of our local waterways as this man does. And his level of care about the people on his boat is unparalleled. He truly will give his all to share our resource with you and see to it, that you get the chance to love it as much as he does. You will never go wrong chosing this guy as your guide!
