Captain Dan Utley is a 30-year veteran fishing the near shore and inshore waters surrounding Hilton Head Island, and is a licensed Coast Guard Captain.
Redfish are his specialty, but during the correct season the Fishin Coach loves to pursue Cobia, Tarpon and other large predatory species (Sharks).
Fishing techniques range from using dead or live baits on spinning and conventional tackle to artificials and sight fishing with Fly Gear. Techniques vary with the season, tides and weather.
Trips are planned ahead of time combining the knowledge and experience of Captain Dan and the interest of clients.
Inshore Fishing is done out of a 22ft Century Bay Boat with a wrap-around deck that makes for easy maneuvering for several people. Offshore fishing is done from the 28ft Pursuit which can handle 6 persons being fully equipped with the latest electronics, full stand up head, and all Coast Guard safety gear.
Having spent almost 30 years teaching and coaching, Captain Dan has plenty of patience to Coach Up the beginning angler, and lots of savvy to challenge the experienced angler.
