Stock Island has a fish with your name on it, so let It’s Time Sportfishing help you catch it! With Captain Jose at the helm, you’ll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.

Cobia, Amberjack, Yellowtail Snapper, Blackfin Tuna, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Black Grouper, Mangrove Snapper, Mutton Snapper, Red Grouper, and more inhabit these waters if you cast your line at the right time of year. On the day of your trip you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. For the more adventurous among you, there’s spearfishing.

It’s Time Sportfishing welcomes kids aboard, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Also remember to bring snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!

Your day begins aboard a 34’ Crusader sportfishing vessel that can carry up to 4 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter. Live bait is included, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It’s always wise to bring sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen (non-spray). There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks available on board.

Now and then the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. So make it happen, with It’s Time Sportfishing!
