Jason was great to work with and was a conciencious of our family. He had clean language and was so positive and happy to help the kids (and adults) have a positive experience. He provided a cooler full of ice and water, which was wonderful to have on a warm day.
He put in so much effort to help make sure that we caught some fish. We were having an unlucky day, but he was persistent and we tried 4-5 places in the ocean with multiple fishing techniques. We managed to catch 6 different kinds of fish! They were small, so we didn’t bother keeping them for our dinner, but everyone was able to catch a fish and had a great time laying some basics about fishing. Jason was so patient to teach all of us and to continually support us in our attempts.
We all had a great time and enjoyed our experience.

Captain Jason knows his stuff. With some questionable weather he was very communicative and flexible making sure we went out in good conditions. He knew where to find the fish, what they would bite on, and got em on the boat! I took my 10 and 12 year old and he was amazing with them, giving them good instruction and TRUSTING them with his gear and leaving it to them to reel in the fish, even the barracuda my 10 year old daughter caught! He made sure that my son ended on a high note after that by trolling and getting another ‘cuda on the line but it got off last minute. Even though it was time for our trip to end he went to one more spot to make sure he could reel in a few before we went back to the docks. Will certainly be reaching out to him on our next trip, you should too!

This was our first time on a trip like this and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We booked a four hour afternoon trip and even with wind and pretty good chop to start the day Jason got us on fish right away, spent most of the time catching Yellow Tail, but caught a wide variety. Had an amazing experience with a Hammerhead shark that chased a fish around the boat and ended the day catching a couple of nice size Barracuda. We will be back and highly recommend Jason and Katz Charters.

We decided to go shark fishing after being a little disappointed with a party reef trip and booked Jason at short notice.  He arrived on time and prepared and took us a short distance to our fishing spot. After a short wait we both had good bites but in our excitement both did exactly what Jason told us not too and lost both fish. We then both managed to catch good sized black tip sharks with Jason expertly managing the boat to avoid tangled lines on the many crab pot boys. Both came home very happy after an excellent 3hrs fishing. Would highly recommend Jason for his skill and interesting conversation during the quiet time’s.

We did a quick two hour fish with our kids (9 and 11) for their first time fishing the ocean.  Jason knew right where to go, patiently baited and rebaited the hook (for all of us), and was great with the kids keeping them active and engaged.  He even kept us out there a little longer since we were into some snapper.  We caught a couple of dozen fish in the two hours… kept half of those for “hook and cook” at Robbie’s :)
