  A fun and eventful fishing trip!

  4 Hour – Morning Tarpon Tripna jul 28, 2026 • 2 odraslih

  Jason was an exceptional captain and fishing guide! We enoyed his company and professional, easy-going attitude. He was very knowledgeable and he helped my son catch a huge Tarpon (his taget fish)!! it waa epic!! My son also reeled in a nice lemon shark and a few Nerf Sharks on this trip! We did the evening half-day trip and enjoyed the beautiful sunset and the nice new boat was comfortable and luxurious! Another thing worth noting was seeing another boat passing by at a fast speed and our captain waved his arms to get their attention and saved them feom running their boat into a huge sandbar area. That was very respecful and shows he cares to help others out, too! We will definitely come fishing in Islamorada with Jason again! :) I highly recommend Katz Charters for helping make our fishing trip a successful one! Great memories and good conversation between the tight lines!

  A wonderful experience on the water with Jason!

  4 Hour – Patch Reefna jul 2, 2026 • 2 odraslih

  What can I say about Captain Jason and the wonderful fishing experience he provides that hasn’t already been said here, in his 500+ five-star reviews? As a first-time fisherwoman taking her teenage son on a fishing trip in the Keys, I was in over my head (not literally, thankfully). I wanted to book a charter fishing experience that my son (who fishes regularly) would enjoy, but also one where I would feel completely comfortable putting our lives in a stranger’s hands. Before booking, I had questions for Jason. He responded promptly and put me at ease. And he definitely remembered me when we met at the dock. He took us about 5 miles out - a 20-minute ride past the lighthouse - and he knew all the tips & tricks to get the fish biting. We reeled in lots of fish - all yellowtail and mangrove snapper, I believe, and plenty enough to have that night for dinner at the Hungry Tarpon, the restaurant at Robbie’s Marina where Jason picked us up. And we were lucky enough to take our trip in Jason’s brand-new 20’ boat, which is gorgeous! But here’s where I shall digress. When booking an experience - any kind of experience - with a total stranger lasting 4-5 hours, you hope against hope that you like each other. That a certain camaraderie develops - and fast. Jason is funny and smart, tells great stories, and is easy to talk to. But here’s the best and most important thing - he’s a good person. I asked him about his worst experience/customers he has had as a charter captain, and the story he told me and the way he handled the situation reaffirmed my faith in the human race. I’m not going to tell his story here - you can ask him if you like. But just know this - Jason cares about people and doing the right thing, even when no one is watching. We should all have the same moral compass. Thank you, Jason, for everything.

  Wow, thank you so much for putting the effort into such a detailed review. The story you refer to is one of my proudest decisions that reflects values my family instilled that I am sure I do not always live up to, but try. I disagree with you on just one thing, I really am not particularly smart. You guys were terrific, thanks! Jason

  Tarpon Fishing

  4 Hour – Morning Tarpon Tripna maj 30, 2026 • 4 odraslih

  Captain Jason took us out from Robbie’s Marina for an evening Tarpon trip. He was ready on time with all the bait we needed pre-setup. We took off for maybe 10 minutes before we reached our first stop, where we caught a black tip shark and some nurse sharks. After not getting a Tarpon for the next two hours he recommended we move to another spot. Within 30 minutes we were hooked on a proper silver king. The fish fought for maybe a little under an hour before it got tangled it up beside a pier. Captain Jason did his very best to save the catch, passing the rod around piers and moving the boat around the marina to keep the line clear. Overall, amazing trip. Captain Jason walks you through what he is doing and takes time to teach you about the actual fishing. Would 100% recommend, and next time I am in Florida I will for sure re-book this charter!

  It was a very enjoyable time fishing with you guys. On a personal note, wonderfully unique time learning complex hisory and views on another region of the world from a group with perspectives I rarely am fortunate enough to hear. I was up until 4:00 am reading historical articles on the fascinating and important subject! Peace and love through Fishing. Thanks again. Jason

  Awesome fishing trip!

  4 Hour – Afternoon Tarpon Tripna maj 28, 2026 • 4 odraslih

  We had an amazing experience fishing for Tarpon with Captain Jason! Our group consisted of four people (three adults and one child), and from the very beginning Captain Jason was incredibly friendly, patient, and helpful. Since I was the only one who spoke English and the others only spoke Portuguese, we even mixed in some Spanish to communicate. Despite the language barrier, he took the time to explain everything about Tarpon fishing and made sure everyone understood what to do. After about a 10-minute ride from the marina, we reached our first fishing spot. Almost immediately after we cast our bait, we hooked into a huge Tarpon. The fight lasted close to an hour before the fish became tangled around a bridge and unfortunately escaped. Captain Jason did absolutely everything he could to save the fish, maneuvering the boat and guiding us through every possible option. Later, we caught a Lemon Shark and then hooked another Tarpon. Once again, we had an exciting battle, but the fish eventually wrapped itself around underwater structures and managed to escape. Even though we didn't land a Tarpon, the action, excitement, and adrenaline made the trip unforgettable. Captain Jason is a genuinely great guy, very knowledgeable, patient, and always in a good mood. He creates a fun atmosphere while also teaching you a lot about the fishery and the techniques involved. I highly recommend this charter to anyone visiting the Florida Keys. It was a true adventure from start to finish, and I would gladly book another trip with Captain Jason the next time I'm in Florida!

  That was a very exciting trip all around. The mix of cultural backgrounds was by far the most enjoyable from my perspective. An all around great group. See you next time.

  Bucket list experience

  4 Hour – Morning Tarpon Tripna maj 9, 2026 • 2 odraslih

  what an amazing time and experience. Jason was a great captain. Very friendly and knew the fishing areas and local history very well. i love the smaller boat experience you’ll get here. big boats feel like a process. this was fishing with great personal interactions among Jason and us. we hooked two 5’ black tips and my dream fish of catching a tarpon came true with a 5+ foot and 150lb tarpon. Jumped about 5 feet out of the water and made our hearts skip a beat. it was an hour fight right at the end of our trip and Jason never even thought about dropping the fish and heading home. we stayed on it until we landed it. what an awesome catch and trip. we highly recommend Jason. Ask about his travels… the stories and conversation is great. we will definitely head out with him again next time down in Isla !

  What a fun review and I appreciate the kind words. That fish was way above eye level when it just barely cleared the side of the boat. Crazy! See you guys next time. Thanks again.
