Jupiter's Inshore Fishing Bonanza: 4-8 Hour Charter
Ready for some rod-bending action in Jupiter's inshore waters? Gettin Lucky Sportfishing's got you covered with our 4 to 8-hour charters. We're talking primo spots for Snook, Tarpon, and more, all within a quick run from the dock. Our seasoned crew knows these waters like the back of their hand, so you're in for a day of non-stop action. Whether you're a seasoned angler or it's your first time wetting a line, we've got the know-how to put you on the fish. So grab your buddies, pack some snacks, and let's hit the water!
What to Expect on the Water
Once we push off from Jupiter, it's game on. We'll cruise to the hotspots where the fish are biting, whether that's the inlets, bridges, or hidden backwater honey holes. Our boat's decked out with top-notch gear, so all you need to bring is your game face. We're targeting the inshore slam: Snook, Redfish, and Tarpon, but don't be surprised if a bruiser Jack Crevalle crashes the party. The best part? We'll clean and bag your catch at the end of the day, so you can focus on the fun part – reeling 'em in!
Techniques That Land Lunkers
On our charters, we mix it up to keep the fish guessing. We might start off sight casting to rolling Tarpon, then switch to live bait fishing around the docks for monster Snook. If the tide's right, we'll hit the flats and do some light tackle finesse fishing for tailing Redfish. Our crew's always got a few tricks up their sleeve, like using DOA shrimp under a popping cork or free-lining pilchards. We'll show you the ropes, and before you know it, you'll be working those lures like a pro.
Why Anglers Keep Coming Back
"Had a great time. Scott was really helpful. Would definitely charter his boat again." - Nels
Species You'll Want to Hook
Snook: These bad boys are the bread and butter of Jupiter's inshore fishing scene. Known as the "linesiders," Snook are ambush predators that love to hang around structure. They put up a heck of a fight and can grow over 40 inches long. The best time to target them is during the warmer months, especially around the new and full moons when they're spawning. Anglers love Snook for their explosive strikes and acrobatic jumps – it's like hooking into a miniature marlin!
Black Drum: Don't let their ugly mugs fool you; Black Drum are a blast to catch. These bottom-feeders can grow to over 100 pounds, though we usually target the "puppy drums" in the 5-30 pound range. They love hanging around bridges and docks, and they'll readily take a crab or shrimp bait. Black Drum are most active in the cooler months, and they're known for their powerful, dogged fights. Plus, they make for some mighty fine eating!
Tarpon: The "Silver King" is the ultimate gamefish for many anglers, and Jupiter's got some monsters. These prehistoric beasts can top 200 pounds and are famous for their gill-rattling jumps and blistering runs. Tarpon season peaks from late spring through summer, but we can find resident fish year-round. Landing a Tarpon is a true test of an angler's skill and endurance – it's not uncommon for fights to last over an hour. Remember, these giants are catch-and-release only, so bring your camera for the money shot!
Redfish: Also known as Red Drum, these copper-colored beauties are a staple of inshore fishing. They've got a distinctive black spot on their tail, which helps anglers spot them tailing in shallow water. Redfish are opportunistic feeders and will hit everything from live bait to artificial lures. The "slot" size (18-27 inches) makes for great eating, but the real thrill is hooking into an oversized "bull" red in the 30-40 inch range. These brutes will test your drag and your biceps!
Crevalle Jack: If you're looking for a pure, brutal fight, look no further than the Crevalle Jack. These musclebound thugs travel in schools and will attack just about anything that moves. Jacks in the 10-30 pound range are common, and they pull like a freight train. They're most active in the warmer months and love to blast topwater lures. While they're not known for their table fare, pound-for-pound, there's no tougher customer in these waters.

Learn more about the species
Black Drum
Black drum are the bulldogs of the flats. These chunky fighters can push 90 pounds, but the sweet spot for eating is 5-15 pounders. You'll find them rooting around oyster beds and mudflats in 3-6 feet of water. They love crustaceans, so fresh crab or shrimp on a circle hook is money. Spring's the prime time when they school up to spawn. Black drum aren't the prettiest fish, but man can they pull. Once hooked, they'll use that big tail to dig in and test your drag. The meat on smaller ones is excellent - firm and mild. Here's a local tip: listen for their distinctive grunting sound. Sometimes you can actually hear a school before you see them. Just remember to handle the big breeders gently if you're releasing them.
Crevalle Jack
Crevalle jacks are the bullies of the flats. These golden bruisers average 3-5 pounds but can hit 30+ offshore. You'll find them busting bait on the surface - just look for the birds diving. Jacks hunt in wolf packs, so when you find one, there's usually more. They'll hit just about anything that moves, from topwater plugs to jigs. Once hooked, they pull like a Mack truck. Spring and fall are best as they follow the bait migrations. Anglers love jacks for their sheer power and willingness to eat. They're not great table fare, but for pure rod-bending action, they're hard to beat. Pro tip: when you see them blitzing, cast beyond the school and rip your lure through fast. They can't resist the fleeing bait imitation.
Redfish
Redfish are the bread and butter of inshore fishing around here. These copper-colored beauties typically run 20-30 inches in the shallows, with bigger bulls lurking near the passes. You'll spot them tailing on the flats, often in water so skinny their backs are out. Spring and fall are prime, but you can catch them year-round. Reds are suckers for a well-placed artificial, but live shrimp or cut bait works too. They pull like freight trains and love to make blistering runs. The "spot on the tail" is their trademark - it's actually a false eye to confuse predators. For eating, nothing beats a slot-sized red on the half shell. Local secret: on hot days, look for them laid up under mangroves or docks to escape the heat.
Snook
Snook are the kings of inshore fishing here in Jupiter. These silver-sided bruisers typically run 20-40 inches and put up one heck of a fight. You'll find them lurking around mangroves, docks, and inlets - anywhere there's structure and bait. Spring and fall are prime seasons as water temps warm up. Anglers love targeting snook for their aggressive strikes and acrobatic leaps. Nothing beats seeing a big linesider explode on a topwater lure at dawn. If you're after a trophy, live bait like mullet or pinfish is the way to go. Just remember to work it slowly - snook aren't known for chasing down fast-moving prey. With the right presentation, you might just land the catch of a lifetime.
Tarpon
Tarpon are the rock stars of Florida fishing. These chrome-plated giants can top 150 pounds and put on an aerial show like no other. We find them rolling in the inlets and along the beaches from spring through fall. They're not the easiest to hook, but once you're connected, hold on tight. Tarpon will go airborne multiple times, shaking that big bucket mouth trying to throw the hook. Live mullet, crabs, or big swim baits all work well. Just be ready for the initial run - it's like hooking a freight train. Tarpon are strictly catch and release, but the memories of battling one last a lifetime. Pro tip: when they jump, bow to the silver king by lowering your rod. It'll help keep that precious hook set.

We had an incredible time with Scott! He put us right on the fish and helped us out with everything along the way. Couldn’t have had a better time out with Scott. 10 of 10 would go again!
