Captain Jason Stock has spent a lifetime on the water. With over 15 years of full-time professional experience, he’s become a standout in Florida’s fishing scene — placing in the FLW Redfish Tour, winning local kayak and billfishing tournaments, and appearing on the covers of top publications like Florida Sportsman, Saltwater Sportsman, Kayak Angler, and Louisiana Sportsman.
His journey began young, working at his family’s local kayak shop, Canoe Country Outfitters, where he fell in love with kayak fishing. The stealth of a kayak allowed him to access untouched waters and quietly pursue Snook, Redfish, Trout, and Tarpon. Over time, his passion turned into a profession, and today he runs guided charters out of his custom 26′ Yellowfin, focusing on offshore adventures along Florida’s Gulf Coast.
Captain Jason offers a range of experiences — from bottom fishing and offshore blue-water trolling to Bucketlist Charters targeting Tarpon, Goliath Grouper, Tuna, and African Pompano. His calm demeanor, deep knowledge, and enthusiasm make him the perfect guide for all skill levels.
Beyond the rods and reels, Jason is deeply rooted in his community. In the wake of Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton in fall 2024, he stepped up to help with relief efforts, donating his time, resources, and local knowledge to assist those in need. His commitment to giving back is just one of the many reasons locals and visitors alike trust him not just as a captain, but as a neighbor.
Clients often remark on the immersive experience Captain Jason offers — it’s not just about catching fish, it’s about learning, laughing, and creating lasting memories on the water. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or it’s your first time holding a rod, Captain Jason ensures an unforgettable trip.
To book a charter, call or text his wife Heather at (941) 253-6512. While he’s often on the water, they’ll help you start planning your ideal Florida fishing adventure — and maybe even land that once-in-a-lifetime catch.
