What Makes This CAPTAIN unique?
Captain Dan
I am the owner and only operator of fish further charters. I do not hire out any captains to run my boat for me and I have built this business from the ground up. Many other captains and companies own multiple boats and have multiple captains running trips for them on boats that they do not own. Families, friends and kids are always welcome. I specialize in taking kids out for an experience of a lifetime that will get them hooked forever. I am also a marine mechanic and do all of my own maintenance and electrical work on my boat, Making sure that my boat Is always in top-notch shape and ready for the open sea.
As a
100-Ton Masters Captain with years of experience on 6-pack and larger sport boats, Dan knows the fishery here well and loves to put guests on fish.
Whether it be inshore or offshore, he thrives to give you the best possible experience on the water.

San Diego is a great place to fish for multiple species throughout the year.

Working the bottom is also great throughout the entire year for rock, fish, halibut, white fish, sheep head, bass, shark, sculpin, yellowtail, and many other species. With great weather year-round and is always a good time to get out on the water. Storms are almost never a factor we have to worry about for our charters.
What makes CAPTAIN DAN get up every morning for another day ON THE WATER?
I have been a captain here in San Diego for about 20 years and in other parts of the country, all my life. I live and breathe to fish, and I love teaching and taking people out who share the passion of being on The ocean, catching fish and seeing the wildlife. It is rewarding for me to see the looks on peoples faces as they are reeling in their catch And pulling fish over the side Of the boat.
What is your favorite type of fishing out of all the tYPES AND aREAS...And why?
Personally, my favorite type is offshore. It’s all about the hunt. There can be a lot of down time while we are searching for the fish, but it's worth it. I keep my eyes glued through my binoculars in my tower, and do my very best to hunt the fish down and get on them. Something as simple as a single bird through the binoculars can put you on the school of a lifetime.
What should be an anglers realistic expectation for ANY day on the water WITH OUR CHARTER with you?
Guests should expect to have a memorable day on the water whether we catch 20 fish or just one. It’s all about the personable experience and spending time together on the water.
In YOUR mind, what is the reason for all the 5-star reviews?
I’m very personable and great with people as well as kids in general. I do this because I love it and people realize that. I give 100% always, no matter how tough the day can be. There are always back up plans to make sure we put some fish in the boat on any type of charter trip. My positive attitude and optimism goes a long way and creating a memorable and exciting experience, no matter the day.
