Join boat owner/Captain of 16 years Jason Katsikas on board his 20’ center console with the SHADE of a T-top. Not a skiff. She is quite spacious due to her design and allows anglers to fish in comfort. He has been fishing Islamorada waters since a kid.  25 years!

Capt. Jason targets many species. Tarpon, Barracuda, and sharks for sport fishing or chasing Snapper, Porgy, Hogfish, various Mackerel, Grouper, and other species for dinner! No matter your skill level or preference, you will be in good hands. Capt. Jason is an avid angler who takes pride in being a great teacher.

You will fish the patch reefs of Islamorada on family and for dinner trips. There is no minimum age for kids. Departure times are flexible, so feel free to contact me directly and arrange a starting time that will suit you best.

If you are ready to battle a trophy Tarpon or go after some tasty dinner, you are ready for Katz Charters!
