Aside from the heat, awesome trip. Capt, had a canopy set up ok the front of the boat to get outta the sun which was huge for this Minnesotan! We got out on the troll first. Missed a half dozen as the sail fish brutalized our baits. Bottom fishing was good as the capt put us on the fish everytime until the sharks started claiming our prize. Then weโd move on to another spot. Friendly, educational. Capt Dan and his mate Dave put together awesome trip for us.. Theyโll be our team when we return in Nov!

Great to have Tim, his son Jake and nephew Wyatt on board for their first trip to Florida. Jake caught a solid 40-pound kingfish on a spinning reel and Wyatt tore up the bottom fish including cobia and snapper. The record heat didnโt deter the young bucks from fishing hard and keeping us busy. Look forward to having them back on the Meat Wagon this fall.
Dan is the man! Would highly recommend a trip with this captain whether you are a serious angler or just learning. He put us on the bite first line in the water and made sure we got our bag limit.
Along with being a highly experienced angler and great teacher, he was a top-notch host and shared a lot of industry knowledge. His boat was clean, comfortable, and offered plenty of shade. All the equipment was in great shape and he made sure we had plenty of bait.

It was great to have Will from Tampa and Rick from Orlando fish our two day snapper season and get to experience the incredible weather and bite we had this year. Time for some fish tacos!
Captain Dan took me and my buddy out to his best red snapper spot and it didnโt disappoint! Captain Dan is very knowledgeable and caring. I highly recommend his experience to first timers because he will not hesitate to show you the ropes or teach you anything! A great experience Iโm looking forward to booking again soon!!
Hey James, you definitely caught on to the circle hook bottom fishing technique and took advantage of every second we were on the water, loved your passion.ย I look forward to having you back on board again soon.ย Good Fishing! Capt. Dan
Captain Dan knows where to catch the fish and how, he knew my 14 yearold had never been off shore and he made sure he had a memory for a life time he was busy all day reeling them in and so was I. Best experience fishing in my 57 years
One of the best things about being a guide is creating and sharing experiences with young new anglers and family members. I enjoyed having Byron and his son William on board, letโs go again soon.
Great day to go fishing during red snapper season. Captain Dan knew the perfect spots to go to, and we also caught some other cool fish like a barracuda and a couple red groupers. Would definitely recommend fishing with Captain Dan.
Great to have Nathan on board for the very special two-day snapper season in the Atlantic. Iโm pleased you enjoyed the day on Meat Wagon II. Good Fishing! Capt. Dan
