Crystal River boasts some of the best inshore and back country saltwater fishing in the state of Florida. Our unspoiled coastline and vast marshes and mangrove islands provide the perfect habitat where fish can thrive. Along with our outstanding fishing come some outstanding fishing guides.

Below you will find a list of Captains that will ensure a memorable day on the water.

Whether you are targeting Redfish, Trout, Snook, Grouper, or that record Tarpon, here are some guides that can put you on the fish.

Captain Dan Clymer was born and raised on the Crystal River. He has been fishing the Citrus County waters his entire life. Some of Captain Dan's fishing specialties include offshore grouper, flats, back country and fly fishing. While offshore, grouper, snapper, cobia, and king mackerel are the Captains target species. He is a true master of shallow water grouper fishing and on most occasions catches his grouper limit within site of land. This shallow water grouper fishing is a unique characteristic for the Homosassa and Crystal Rivers. While fishing inshore, Captain Dan focuses on redfish, trout, and snook. He enjoys taking his charters throughout the vast back country and flats of Citrus County. Fly fishing is also available for all the inshore species and some offshore species. Captain Dan is always up to the challenge of putting an angler to the ultimate test of catching a fish on the fly.

Captain Dan will ensure a great day on the water. His boat can comfortably fish one to four anglers. All bait, tackle, and licenses are included with the charter. An angler only needs to bring their personal belongings along with food and drinks for the day. He looks forward to achieving the most memorable day of fishing Citrus County waters has to offer.

Hi! I'm Captain Mark Zorn (Capt "Z"). I'm a 7th generation Native Floridian, and have lived, and fished in Florida all of my life. For the past 27 years, I've been fortunate enough to live in Citrus County and enjoy the fantastic fishing that Crystal River and Homosassa have to offer. I'm a member of The Homosassa Fishing Guides Association, and am also privileged to fish for the Atlanta Fishing Club out of Homosassa.

Both Crystal River and the Homosassa River are situated in Citrus County, one of the favorite fishing hot-spots in North Central Florida. Each river is spring-fed and flows into the Gulf to Mexico, providing its own unique fishing experience.
