Captain Dan
I have been fishing in Florida lakes for over 40 years. Moving to Florida at 16 years old so my parents could be closer to the "Big O". Fishing Okeechobee and catching several trophy bass with artificial baits and shiners and I was "hooked".
While continuing to fish, I spent over 30 years in public service with Emergency Services and the Sheriff's Office retiring in 2016. During that time I fished with several clubs, both BASS and FLW. I competed in many tournaments throughout Florida and fished several BASS tournaments on the amateur side.
I am a United States Coast Guard licensed Captain, and currently offers guide services on the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes as well as the Butler Chain in the Windermere area of Orlando and Lake Okeechobee.
I also guide in north Florida at Bienville Outdoors in White Springs, Florida. For additional information on Fishing at Bienville visit their website located at: bienville.com
