My name is Daniel. I worked as a deckhand from 2018-2022 on the Outrider and then the Endeavor in ventura. I got my Captains license in 2022 and began working as a 2nd captain for a year before getting the opportunity to run the island Spirit. I ran the island spirit and occasionally the Endeavor from 2023-2025. I am now at Hooks Landing in Oxnard as of 2026. I primarily run half day trips where I prioritize customer service and do whatever it takes to put you on fish!

I Grew up in Newport Beach. I attribute my connection to the ocean, to my Father Mario Fernandez. He introduced me to it at a very young age. I have enjoyed fishing for as long as I can remember. Fishing Southern California is a Blessing that I enjoy year round. I run my own charter out of Mission Bay (Fernandez Charters). I also run Ironclad Sportfishing (In memory of Frank Pitetti). I’m a certified USCG 100 Ton Master. Let’s fish!
