Raymond Dehn, Captain at Salty Vets Fishing Charters
I, the founder of Salty Vets, am a Veteran with deep roots in the water. Growing up in Crystal River, Florida, I had my first boat at the age of 10 and spent every day on the water. After high school, I worked at a power plant in the nuclear division for two years. In 2006, I decided to join the military, where I served in Air Defense Artillery, working with ground-to-air missiles. During my time in service, I deployed twice to South Korea and once to Afghanistan.
In 2013, I transitioned out of active duty and continued my service in the reserves as a wrecker mechanic until 2017. That year, I pursued my passion for the water and earned my Captain's License, launching Salty Vets to offer inshore and offshore fishing charters and private captain services. I served clients from Crystal River to Tampa Bay and the surrounding areas.
In 2024, I relocated to Boynton Beach, Florida, where I now run my business for private boat owners, continuing to provide top-tier maritime services.
As your Captain, my goal is to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone aboard. I want my guests to create lasting memories, share plenty of laughs, and have an unforgettable time. I feel truly fortunate to turn my passion into my career.

It didnt take too long for us to reach out limit of Scallops which meant more time for guests to hang out on the boat and relax! The scalloping has been really great so far this year.

Come join us for a scalloping tour in Crystal River its been an awesome season so far and its only getting better!

Ratings & Reviews Summary
July 18, 2025
Spent a whole day fishing with Captain Ray. We had a great time and Captain Ray worked hard all day long to put us on fish. He was ready for multiple types of fishing (Lures and different bats) Based on what the fish wanted. We caught several different species (Reds, Snook, Trout, Mangrove Snapper) throughout the day. First time to Crystal River for me and the water and habitat was beautiful. We will definitely be fishing with Captain Raymond again!

We came down from SC on vacation and I booked a fishing charter for me and my 2 daughters. This was their first time fishing on a charter and they loved it. Captain Ray was patient and made sure they had a great time. Amazing fishing guide who is very customer focussed. We will definitely Use Salty Vets for future vacations!

Thanks Captain Ray for a great outing! A successful day and a learning experience too. We missed some good ones but we caught others once Captain Ray gave a some advice and pointers. We absolutely recommend him for your next guide!
