Great afternoon on the water fishing with young kids.
Was visiting Tampa with family and did a last minute 4h bay trip with Capt Jason. Got us in and worked around us for time of trip. Had my 8 yo daughter and 10 yo son. My daughter spent the day trying to set the live bait free (seriously), while my son and I fished. Lots of action all trip including a big Snook for my son which was amazing. Capt Jason was great with the fishing and the kids. We all had a blast. Next time down will do it again.

Two great charters in a week, bow fishing and inshore/snook/shark trip!
2 great trips with Captain Buck this week. Bow Fishing charter was great, plenty of shooting opportunities for rays and mullet, loads of fun! Inshore charter was also great. Buck had us on the fish as soon as we started, plenty of trout and ladyfish, then in shore to a Snook honey hole where we had 4 big snook within 10 minutes, great action. Spent the last hour having a go for a shark, no luck even when he blasted out the music from the movie ‘Jaws’, but worth a go!
Thanks again Buck, see you next year!

Best Charter around
Captain Jason is very knowledgeable about the area. He put me on a nice triple tail, I never caught one before so that was awesome. I would recommend everyone go out with him, he’s a great dude. Thank you for having us out, can’t wait to book our next charter.

When you don't fish for a living, bad day fishing is better than a good day at work, but this was a good day of fishing!
The most relaxing fishing day we've had! Fantastic day! Caught a lot of fish in 5 hours, more than a $hit load...(that'd be more than 14, way more! ). Captain Jason was laid back, personable and made the day so enjoyable! will definitely book with him again and will tell everyone we know headed this way!

Even your teenagers will have a great time
Capt. Jason's experience of the Tampa Bay waters was evident as he put us on the fish. My teenage son and my wife we were hooked up right away. He was great with my teenage daughter and helped her with her casting technique, which she picked up on quickly. He also showed us how to hook live pilchards and we became pretty self sufficient, which I like.
I was concerned that the cold front and high winds during the week would make it difficult to find fish, but he ran us to several fishing spots and we hooked up every time.
Our target species were Red Drums, Trout & Snook. We couldn't find the drums, but we did manage catching Sea Trout, Lady Fish and Snook.
I would recommend a trip with Capt. Jason and we look to book with him again, hopefully in the Keys!

So many fish!!
Awesome trip. Jason had us on fish right away, and kept us on fish until we were literally tired of catching fish. At one point I joked if he’d brought us to the state hatchery. Awesome guy and great trip. Thanks again!!
