Hello everyone I know it has been a while but I wanted to check in and say hello. It's been a rough road for me recovering from my last treatments especially the radiation I had done. My strength is slowly getting better and that's been my biggest issue. That radiation really hits on you and takes quite a while to recover. I'm making progress and...

Great action for today's morning trip with the Platz team. I fish this great family every year around this time and we've been going strong for about 10yrs now. Josh Piper and Rick were my team today and they turned some nice ones. No break offs pulled hooks etc... they were 100% on their game. We fished in the 10ft to 12ft range and all the gags...

A nice day out of Crystal River with Chuck and Tim and these guys had a fine day. We pulled our bait traps and went to grouper digging. The gags were biting pretty darn good and we had a couple even get the best of us by taking us in the rocks. Chuck and Tim soon enough turned four nice ones and just around noon we called it a day. Great job and I...

Another great morning trip with Larry and Todd on board and it was pretty much just like yesterdays trip. Some fast grouper action kept us busy and by 10am the guys had their limit of good ones. We totaled probably 25 grouper for the morning and beat the heat being back at the dock before noon. Awesome morning and I thank you... Capt. Dan

Some quality gags for Mark and Craig and these guys did awesome. We dropped on a couple different ledges and right out of the gate it was on. We had a double digit morning and turned some nice fish that gave a great tug of war. I thank you both and great job... Capt. Dan

A great trip with Sabrina and Eric and this was Eric's birthday present to catch some Crystal River grouper. Well I didn't disappoint him and the team turned some really nice gags. Before 10am they secured a fine limit and we called it a day to beat the storms and heat. You both did awesome and happy birthday Eric.... Capt. Dan

A hot grouper bite for the Millennium Metals team from the East coast and they sure did well. The bait traps were loaded today and we had an awesome trip. Nothing to fancy just dropping live pin fish on some ledges and "wham" grouper on. The guys turned all their fish and six fine gags came on board. Great job and I thank you all... Capt. Dan

Another hot one but a good one with Terry and Jamie on board. These guys were ready to go and did awesome. We turned four really nice gags for a limit and released several others too Live baits on bottom rigs were the deal for us and I thank you both for a really fun day... Capt. Dan

Well vacation's over and it's back to work time. I'm easing my way back into trips and today Dan Lauren and Big Fish Bob were up first. We had a good trip caught four really nice grouper and had a couple get the best of us. Dropping live baits on the ledges did the trick and we wrapped it up around noon. With the oppressive heat right now I'm just...

A great time in the Rocky Mountains with Becky and some great friends. We caught some really nice trout and saw some new beautiful country. We've been going out there now for 12 years and this trip we even did some more exploring. Some of the new streams paid off great and some not so much but they will definitely produce in the future when they h...

Jeff and I Don't get to spend to much time together and he's been asking me forever to experience a tarpon fight. Well today was his day and he did great. He made a perfect presentation and soon enough launched one in the air. He had about a...

Another successful day with the tarpon and Jim and I had our good friend Chris from down South join us for the day. We set up again and patiently waited for the fish to come through. Soon enough we had a little window of activity and we were in fish. Chris was up and he did a terrific job feeding a whopper of a tarpon. He hooked up and about 40 mi...
