A message from your Captain
"Hi, I'm Captain Daniel Medina. As a native Floridian, I've been a Charter Fishing Guide in South Florida specializing in both deep sea offshore and back bay inshore fishing for the majority of my adult life. I take pride in regularly putting people on trophy quality fish. Nothing brings me more joy than watching my clients battle and land their fish of a lifetime."
As a full-time charter captain, I spend anywhere from 200-300 days a year on the water chasing a variety of different species. From fishing inshore flats and mangroves, to 100 miles offshore, this gives me a tremendous advantage when its time to put you on the fish.
Whether it's your first time fishing, or your a seasoned veteran, I welcome the opportunity to show you the fantastic deep sea fishing we have off the coast of Fort Myers, Naples, Sanibel, Cape Coral, Boca Grande and the surrounding areas of Southwest Florida. I look forward to putting you on the fish!

The Salty Beast
Our vessel, " The Salty Beast" is a World Cat 33TE, Tournament Edition catamaran that has an overall length of over 37 feet with a generous 10 ft 6-inch beam that carries the full length of the boat. She roars to life with the twin 300 horsepower Yamaha 4 Stroke outboards! What this means for you is a large, wide and stable boat with lots of space. She has plenty of storage along with multiple fish boxes to keep your catch fresh on ice, two sizeable live well's, A large T-top for shade, a toilet in the forward cabin area, and some of the most modern fish finding electronics on the market.
The Salty Beast is the ultimate fishing boat for the Gulf of Mexico. Her catamaran (twin hull) design offers THE SMOOTHEST Ride to and from the fishing grounds.
She has a proven track record of catching some BIG Fish.
She also floats relatively shallow for her size, so she is equally capable fishing the inshore grass flats comfortably in just about any weather conditions. This is great for families with small children and the ladies, as they have a bathroom, shade to get out of the elements, and a super comfortable ride! They say once you go Cat, you wont go back!

See What Some of Our Past Guests are saying about us...
...The captain was well prepared and his boat was in top Shape, Highly recommend !!! I will re-booked for next year, Fishing was Excellent..." As a lifelong city boy this was my first time out fishing in the ocean. Captain Dan couldn’t of made the trip any easier than he did. We had 6 people in our group. Ages 9 to 45. The way Captain Dan manuvered though all 6 people preparing poles, prepping bait, hooking on the bait, taking the tough fish off the hooks was amazing. He did it all that as he constantly gave great advice on how to fish better. You can tell Captain Dan was born on the seas. Great experience I’ll never forget." -Bill Holland Great time! Dan was amazing helping out our 3 boys, ages 15, 13 and 12 with their first salt water fishing trip. They had the time of their life on the trip!" -Stephanie Shriver Great times even better fishing good captain and he knows his fish ......" Patrick Denino Our Captain was great! He was very knowledgeable about the fish, bait we used and the area we were fishing. Our experience was as we had hoped it would be... Would recommend this fishing charter to everyone!!!" -Chris Doyle This was our second trip with Captain Dan. We booked a 3/4 day and it was plenty of time to target what we wanted and then play with the grouper on the way in. Captain Dan is extremely knowledgeable and informative of why and how things are done. It was awesome. I would definitely recommend Captain Dan to anyone in the Fort Myers area for a fishing charter in the future. He will put you on the fish!" -Corey Anderson |
