    Last Minute Decision which turned out great

    sunday funday on July 19, 2026 • 3 adults

    Our plans changed and we had a last minute thought about a fishing charter. Jane came through and was able to get us a charter in just a few hours. Captain Zach was very laid back and made sure we had everything we needed in being successful in catching fish, and catching fish was exactly what we accomplished. For us it wasn’t about catching fish to keep we just wanted the fun of a good catch and release day. woukd highly recommend this fishing charter.

    Fishing with Jane

    Full Day Trip on March 7, 2024 • 2 adults

    We caught fish, too bad some were not keepers or we would have had one big haul. Nate was great ! Got us on fish and when it slowed down he moved to catch more. Would love to fish again with Nate, or Jane. Hopefully again soon. Thanks for the memories!!!!

    Greg was the best captain

    Full Day Trip on July 30, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 child

    We had a great experience. Boat was very comfortable for fishing or just lounging. Greg had us on lots of great fishing spots. Also had snorkeling equipment on the boat and took us to some reefs so we could jump in and cool off while snorkeling. Would definitely book with them again. Also great communication from the owners before and after the trip with pictures providing directions and follow up texts regarding our experience.

Captain Nate and Captain Jane run trips out of Stock Island aboard a 21' NauticStar. These waters are known for Amberjack and Snappers and they will show you how to catch them, whether you're bottom fishing or spinning. With great knowledge of the area, they have a trick or two up their sleeves, and the only way to learn is to join one of them out on the water! This will surely be the highlight of your vacation!
