My son and I booked an 8-hour fishing trip with Lock it up Charters. The day before the weather looked liked it could be an issue. Capt. Jay called the day before our trip and game planned for the next day. We pushed back the time to allow for the weather to clear. Jay was very knowledgable about the best places to and tried his best to accomodate my son’s interest in catching a certain fish. Jay put us on the fish all day long and my son caught the fish he has been trying to catch for years. Great time and looking forward to our next trip with Lock it up Charters. The 5 star reviews are real.

We went on a 6 hr trip to look for Mahi but as it became clear they were not around Jason took us to another spot and we caught a load of Yellow Snapper, Mullet Snapper and Bluefin Jack.

It was great fun trying to get them onto the boat without them being taken by bulk shark, barracuda and a giant grouper, they didn’t all make it.

Jason is an ex-commercial fisherman so knows exactly what to do to get you back with plenty of fish. His expertise was exactly what we needed today. We will be coming back and fishing with him again.

He made us feel very welcome.

Captain Jason was so knowledgeable, so humorous, so the ocean guru story teller, and humble in all of his courteous ways to make his clients feel like they have the charter venture they are paying for and then some…. seriously.  My son n l caught about a half dozen species of fish. Saw a sea turtle…. and battled 2… 5ft+ nurse sharks and like 9 3-4ft Atlantic reef sharks….Then while fileting fish fed the scraps to dinosaur size tarpon.. overoverall…. insanely awesome experience! Thanks Captain J!!!!

Booked a 2 hour trip with Captain Jason. It’s not much time but Jason was able to get to productive fishing area in 15 minutes or so. We caught fish right away: Mangrove Snapper, Yellow Jack, and Barracuda. Jason makes the trip enjoyable, productive and entertaining (Capt Jason talks to the fish near the boat). Capt Jason is a great guide and I will try to book him again when I am back in the Keys. I recommend you check his availability if you are interested in fishing the Key Largo area.

Great Day! Caught so many fish , started to catch and release , couldn’t eat that many . Jason knows the waters well and found the fish fast. He is amazing in that he can carry a conversation and do several things at once. Great role model when it comes to being environmentally friendly and safety of his charter and other boaters sharing the water ways. He seemed to be able to read the fish and make changes that allowed us to catch more. The fish seemed to know him also .When we returned and he cleaned our catch , he even had Tarpon eating out of his hand. Next time I am in the keys and go fishing , he will get my business ! One minor thing. I caught the biggest fish of my entire life . A huge grouper ! Amazing !
