Captain Jason has loved fishing since he was a kid. Early on, he set three goals for himself: to become a Marine, to become a firefighter, and to become a charter boat captain. Now, he's accomplished all three, and even does double-duty as a captain on the fireboat!

From experienced sport fishermen to families, Captain Jason does it all, and absolutely loves every kind of client. His goal is to bring you a perfect fishing experience and great memories, whether it's a personal best or your first time on the water.

Jason was awesome! He got my daughters lines all hooked up and helped them every time they caught one. He did their bait and beings they didn’t wanna actually touch the fish he released the fish for them too. About half way through the girls needed a break so Jason n I hung out n fished and bs’d a bit. Definitely gonna be going back for another trip!!!

We had a fantastic time. Caught lots of fish and enjoyed talking to Jason. He put us on fish immediately and moved to another location if the fish stopped biting. Never had time to eat the snacks we brought. Will book with Jason the next time we go fishing
