Meet Destin Inshore Guides' Fly Fishing Captain

3/2/2019

1 Comment

 
Destin Inshore Guides is proud to announce and introduce our captain for our Destin fly fishing charters, Captain Royce Dahnke. 

Captain Royce is a True native, being born and raised right here in Destin, Florida.  Coming from a fishing heritage he is a 3rd Generation Fishing Captain in the Emerald Coast Area.  Growing up Captain Royce fished the back bay waters of Destin, Fl with his father for fun.  Throughout middle and high school he worked for his father as a deckhand doing offshore bottom fishing and trolling charters.  After graduating from high school captain Royce decided to continue pursuing his career in fishing and earned his captains license. Now a days he focuses primarily on fishing the super shallow waters of the panhandle from Navarre to Panama City sightfishing for redfish on fly or light spin tackle.  Captain Royce's biggest passion is fly fishing for redfish and tarpon, saying "he gets a big rush and great sense of pride watching a client hook up to a nice fish on fly." 

Captain Royce has been apart of the Destin Inshore Guides team since 2017, guiding Destin inshore bay charters and Destin near shore gulf charters.  Destin Inshore guides is  excited to be offering fly fishing charters for the 2019 Destin fishing season. Although captain Royce will be our designated fly captain on the skiff, he will continue to guide Inshore and near shore charters as well.  We look forward to seeing everyone for the 2019 fishing season.  Don't forget Spring Break and Summer Break are peak seasons in Destin, Florida.  If you plan on visiting during these months we do advise booking as early as possible, as we do book up solid during these months.  Email or call today to book your next Destin Fishing Adventure.

    Great news! The rental ban has been lifted and summer is here.  Fishing has been great over the past couple weeks and we are booking up fast.  Make sure to call asap to get on the books. Check out below what we have been catching.

    Here lately on our inshore bay fishing charters we have been catching a variety of species.  The redfish continue to be a target as these fish are a year around fishery for the Destin, Florida area.  We are catching there around structure as well as on grass flats.  The Spanish mackerel and bluefish bite has been red hot trolling artificial lures, casting jigs, and using live baits when we are able to find good sized ones.  With the fin baits starting to show up on the grass flats, the grass flats fishing is starting to happen with speckled trout, redfish, spanish mackerel, and bluefish mixed. 

    On our inshore gulf fishing charters the bite has been good as well.  While trolling we have been targeting king mackerel, spanish mackerel, and amberjacks.   Amberjacks are still in season untile June 1st.  While bottom fishing we are targeting a mix bag of  snappers including white snapper, mingo snapper, and mangrove snappers along with triggerfish and redsnappers. 

    Red snappers and trigger fish are out of season but still make for great time to perform "CPR" (Catch, Photograph, and Release)

    Summer break 2020 is here and we are happy to be fishing every day again.  Give us a call to get out fishing while visiting  Destin, Fl. this year.
