Captain Dorvan went above and beyond to ensure my 13-year-old grandson had a wonderful first fishing experience. He took us to his favorite spots and taught Elijah how to cast, bait the hook, reel in fish, and be patient. Although the fish were not very cooperative, we still caught several catfish and a stingray. Captain Dorvan was patient, kind, and encouraging throughout the trip. We will definitely book with him again when we return!

Capt D is a great guy, & guide! Caught a 27" Redfish (my first ever) within the first 10 minutes! Caught fish off & on all day, even though the water temperature was exceeding 90°! He is not a clock watcher, & just wants you to have a great experience. Highly recommend his service!!

We had a good trip and caught some fish, though the bite was slow. After all, that’s why it’s called fishing and not catching.

An outstanding company to book with and an excellent charter experience overall. Captain Daniel’s knowledge of the local waters is second to none—he knows every oyster bar, reef, shallow flat, and drop-off in the area. His boat is comfortable, well maintained, and perfectly suited for inshore fishing. Throughout the day, we fished multiple productive spots and landed Speckled Sea Trout, Black Drum, and other species. While the bite slowed at times due to cooler water temperatures, Captain Daniel kept things moving with his expertise and put us back on the fish. The gear provided was top-notch, with quality Penn equipment and a wide variety of lures and tackle available. From start to finish, it was a fun, successful day on the water, and I highly recommend Captain Daniel’s charter to anyone looking for a memorable fishing trip.
