Our family decided it would be fun to do a chartered fishing trip during our vacation to the Tampa area. We had a great time with Capt. Danny. He did a great job getting us set up to fish and we saw a shark, some dolphins, and some manatees on our trip as well. We had a great time and Capt. Danny’s boat was well equipped and he was so patient with us and helped load our lines and helped us every step of the way. If we get back to the Tampa area we will look him up again!

Captain Danny was great!  He asked us what we wanted to get out of the trip, and did exactly what was needed to get it done.    His boat was clean, perfectly equipped.  He made sure we had a comfortable ride and was very attentive.  He even took extra time at the end of the trip to try and target triple tail (one that was on the list of desired species I gave him) and it was a success.  He is genuinely good guy.  We will be booking with him again for sure.

We had an awesome time on our half-day charter! There were three adults and one very excited 9-year-old, and Danny made sure everyone had fun and felt comfortable. We caught a nice snapper, a couple of puffer fish, and a few other surprises along the way. The captain was patient, helpful, and great with kids. It was a perfect mix of learning, laughs, and reeling in fish. Highly recommend for families or anyone looking for an easygoing, enjoyable day on the water!

We originally booked a fishing trip with Captain Danny for our son’s 12th birthday on 8/23—his very first time fishing. Unfortunately, due to inclement weather, the trip had to be canceled. Thankfully, Captain Danny was incredibly helpful and communicative, working with us to reschedule for a later date that ended up working even better.

We’re beyond grateful to Captain Danny for turning what could have been a disappointment into an unforgettable birthday experience. Our son(s), their friend, and my husband all said it was one of the most incredible days they’ve ever had. Not only did they catch a ton of fish, but the highlight was reeling in a shark—something my son hasn’t stopped talking about since!

If you’re considering a fishing trip, I highly recommend booking with Captain Danny. He’s friendly, accommodating, and makes the experience accessible and enjoyable for everyone—whether you’re a seasoned fisher or a total beginner. He provides all the gear you need and ensures a memorable time on the water.

Thank you so much, Captain Danny! We can’t wait to book another trip with you in the future.

My family and I were visiting from Colorado and specifically my dad and I have always dreamt of catching fish out of the ocean. Captain Danny not only allowed that to happen for us, but he was extremely accommodating to the entire family, including our 3 month old who we were able to take along with us.

From the very first cast we were getting slammed with snapper. Within the first hour we had caught probably close to 12-15 snapper, including a puffer fish.

The highlight catches of the day came a bit later when I was able to pull up a baby blacktip shark and my dad got himself a red grouper.

At the end of the trip we had caught 25 snapper and 8 big enough to keep for dinner. 1 puffer fish, 1 blacktip shark, and a red grouper.

After we finished fishing and headed back to shore, despite us being out of time, Danny was kind enough to turn the boat around when we spotted some dolphins to give us a closer look.
Danny even filleted our fish for us when we got back to the dock.

Danny was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire experience and I would recommend him to anyone, new or experienced with finishing! We would absolutely book again with Danny in the future!
