GoldenRod Fishing Charters, LLC. is owned and managed by Captain Jason Whitfield and his wife, Kimberly Davis Whitfield. Both Jason and Kim are third generation members of families entrenched in the fishing industry. Jason grew up commercial fishing with his dad, Capt. Mike Whitfield, and Kim grew up fishing when she could on Captain Davis Queen Fleet headboats owned by her dad, Grover Davis, and his brothers, "Duck," and Joe Ed. One of our family traditions is private artificial reef building. The Davis brothers started reef building in the 1950s and Jason has been continuing the tradition for over two decades now. As for Capt. Matthew Lewis, over the last 15 years his enthusiasm for fishing has landed him onboard most every Whitfield fishing trip. We know where and how to fish!
