He takes great pride in providing once-in-a-lifetime fishing experiences for anglers of all skill levels, and especially enjoys teaching young anglers and kids to have a great time catching fish.

Captain Jason will host your group aboard his new 30’ Sea Hunt center console boat, which offers a smooth, dry and fast ride to the offshore fishing spots. Powered by twin 300 HP Suzuki engines, and complete with a GPS, fishfinder, VHF, sonar, and radar, this spacious fishing vessel has it all.

The oversized T-top provides plenty of shade and rain protection, and the boat also has a restroom onboard.

Captain Jason uses high-quality Shimano and Avet reels, and Ugly Stik Tiger and custom hopper rods.

Captain Jason offers a variety of year-round fishing opportunities ranging from offshore deep sea charters to nearshore jetty fishing trips. Head offshore to target Red Snapper, Blackfin Tuna, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, Kingfish, Cobia, Ling, and Grouper, or stay nearshore at the jetties for Bull Redfish, Bull Black Drum, Sharks, Jack Crevalle, and more. For those looking to face off with Texas-sized Sharks, Captain Jason offers a trip specifically tailored towards Shark catching!

Our Captain Connor did a great job as our guide. We spent the majority of our trip on small rods catching several species of fish. We then switched to large reals in deeper water. The highlight of our trip was our son landing a 60 lb Blacktip Shark…….on his birthday. Connor was extremely attentive to all of our needs…..bating our lines, unhooking snags, and ensuring we had an enjoyable experience. ...

The final cherry on top was Connor filleting our catch so that we were able to bring some of our catch home.

Wish we could have caught some redfish and trout but captain kept saying the water was really dirty from the storm limiting that. But any trip you catch alot of fish is a good trip!
