Dalton was professional and great to be around all morning. We had limited availability in days to go fishing and Dalton accommodated our schedule on Father’s Day morning and put us on fish immediately! He was educational, informal, and engaged the entire trip. Dalton is a class act and runs a top notch fishing business. We highly recommend booking with Fish Tank Charters as we will in the future.

Great experience! Dalton took my uncle, little cousin and me out for the day and knew exactly where to find the fish. He is a great guy and can talk about anything! I will be booking future charters with him!

aptain Dalton was right on time and right on the fish. 2nd cast and we were hooked up with a great snook. He kept us on them all morning. If we caught a snag, he got another rod so we could be right back in the water while he re-rigged. It was a perfect morning. He knew right where the fish would be and he got ‘em on board. We also hit some nice trout as well. 4 hr trip and we hooked up 15-20 times May be an image of 1 person

Jon Fetter

Great Captain, caught a bunch of fish, and saw dolphins. Captain Jon kept us on the fish for me and kept the dolphins near which was more important to my wife than fishing. We moved around and always had tight lines. Of course my wife caught the biggest fish out of the 3 of us. My arms are sore from reeling in so many fish. Thanks Capt. Jon, we will return and will call again.
