Weather turned on us but the Captain was great. When confronted with potential storm and rough seas, he cared enough to ask if that was our only day to fish. That told me all I needed to know, this Captain cared about his customer more than his time and fuel for vestment. He managed the boat well and tried to keep us on fish despite the conditions. We didn’t fill the cooler but had a great time and took home enough for some delicious tacos. I would fish with this guy again. Captain…thanks for a great sunrise fishing trip!
Thank y’all so much! It was a pleasure having y’all 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Captain Jason and his first mate were an awesome crew. We caught red grouper, vermillion, amber jack, trigger fish, and several others. We would definitely book with Time Off Fishing again!
Thank you so much 🙏🏼 We enjoyed having yall today!
Capt Jason, and Deckhand Garrison did a great job helping us all at our varied experience and abilities. They made sure we were successful, and were super happy for is when we landed a fish.
Thank yall so much 🙏🏼 It was a pleasure having yall on board!
Our family loved our fishing trip with Captain Jay and Garrison! Captain Jay was great about communicating with us to make sure we had a fun experience for our family and he was great with our kids too! Garrison took care of our poles and cleaned our fish! We highly recommend taking a fishing trip with them. We can't for our next one!
Thank yall so much! We really enjoyed having yall!
Captain Jason really knows his stuff! Between my four buddies and me, we caught and kept 24 fish, including three grouper, one snapper, and 20 mingo!!! He was so good at finding fish that we caught another 20 or so red snappers we had to throw back because they were out of season, and another 20 random fish we had to throw back for being too small. I highly recommend Captain Jason’s guide services!!!
thank you very much! it was our pleasure having y’all on board!

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
Captain Jason was born and raised in a military family. When they moved to the Florida Panhandle in 1993, he met some friends who were into fishing and from then he was hooked! The captain's been an avid fisherman since and he purchased his first boat in 2010. From there he has mainly fished the Gulf to this day. Captain Jason loves taking people out to fish and enjoys friends and family catching more than himself. At that point, he decided to go to Sea School and get his captain's license. Now, he's here doing what he's always wanted to do and that's fish for a living.
