Jason Choplin

Member since August 2022 Port Canaveral, United States
Background
I was born and raised in Florida my entire life with most of that time being in Orlando/cape canaveral. At the age of 5 my dad started taking me offshore with him and I have never looked back since! By the time I was 16, I was taking the boat out by myself and coming back with loads of fish! Since then I have spent countless hours researching and trying new ways to put fish in the boat consistently. There is nothing I enjoy more then watching people catch fish and sharing my true passion with them. I may not be able guarantee boat loads of fish every trip but I can guarantee that I will do everything in my power to make sure that everyone on the boat has a good time!
