Expert-Guided Jupiter Inshore Fishing Charters

Jupiter's Full-Day Inshore Fishing Adventure

Ready for a day of non-stop action on Jupiter's inshore waters? Blue Tail Fishing Charters has you covered with our full-day trip that'll have you casting for some of Florida's most sought-after game fish. Whether you're a seasoned angler or new to the sport, our experienced guides will put you on the fish and make sure you have a blast doing it. We're talking Tarpon, Snook, Redfish, and more – all right in our backyard. So grab your hat and sunscreen, and let's hit the water!

What to Expect on the Water

Our full-day charter kicks off bright and early at the Jupiter Inlet. We'll load up the boat with everything you need – rods, reels, bait, and tackle are all provided. No need to sweat the small stuff; we've got you covered. As we cruise out, your guide will fill you in on the day's game plan. We'll hit all the local hotspots, from mangrove-lined shorelines to grass flats and oyster bars. The beauty of inshore fishing is the variety – one minute you might be sight-casting to tailing Redfish, the next you could be battling a massive Tarpon. It's all about reading the water and adapting to what the fish are doing. And don't worry if you're new to this – our guides are patient teachers who love nothing more than seeing clients hook into their personal best.

Techniques You'll Master

On this trip, you'll get hands-on experience with a range of inshore fishing techniques. We'll likely start with some live bait fishing, using pilchards or mullet to entice those big Snook hiding under the docks. As the day heats up, we might switch to artificial lures – topwater plugs for explosive strikes or soft plastics for a more finesse approach. If the Tarpon are rolling, get ready for some serious action. We'll use heavy tackle and live bait to target these silver kings. The fight of a lifetime could be just a cast away. Throughout the day, your guide will be right there, coaching you on everything from perfecting your cast to setting the hook at just the right moment. By the time we head back to the dock, you'll have a whole new set of skills under your belt.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Snook: These hard-fighting linesiders are the crown jewels of inshore fishing in Jupiter. Known for their explosive strikes and acrobatic leaps, Snook will test your skills and your gear. They love to hang around structure, so we'll be targeting mangroves, docks, and bridge pilings. The biggest ones, affectionately called "gator trout" by locals, can top 40 inches and put up a fight you won't soon forget. Snook fishing is hot year-round in Jupiter, but the summer months can be particularly productive.

Tarpon: The "Silver King" is the ultimate bucket list fish for many anglers, and Jupiter's waters are prime Tarpon territory. These prehistoric beasts can grow well over 100 pounds, and when they're hooked, they put on an aerial display that's second to none. We target Tarpon primarily in the late spring and summer when they migrate through our waters. The sight of a massive Tarpon clearing the water by several feet is something that'll stick with you for life. Be prepared for a battle – these fish don't give up easily!

Redfish: Also known as Red Drum, these copper-colored beauties are a staple of inshore fishing in Jupiter. They're known for their distinctive spot near the tail and their willingness to eat just about anything. We'll often find them tailing in shallow water, presenting a perfect opportunity for sight fishing. Redfish put up a stubborn fight, using their broad sides to leverage against your rod. The "bull" Reds, which can exceed 40 inches, are a true trophy and are most common in the fall months.

Sea Trout: While often overlooked in favor of their flashier cousins, Spotted Sea Trout are a blast to catch and great eating too. These speckled predators hunt in schools over grass flats and can be caught on a variety of lures and live baits. The bigger ones, called "gator" trout, can top 5 pounds and put up a respectable fight on light tackle. Sea Trout are available year-round in Jupiter, but the cooler months often produce the biggest fish.

Permit: Last but certainly not least, we have the elusive Permit. These members of the jack family are prized for their finicky nature and blistering runs when hooked. Permit fishing is a game of patience and precision – they have excellent eyesight and can be easily spooked. We typically target them on the flats or around structure using crabs or small jigs. Landing a big Permit is a true accomplishment for any angler, and Jupiter's waters give you a solid shot at these coveted gamefish.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

There's something special about fishing the inshore waters of Jupiter that keeps folks coming back year after year. Maybe it's the thrill of sight-casting to a tailing Redfish in crystal clear water. Or the heart-stopping moment when a massive Snook explodes on your topwater lure. Perhaps it's the camaraderie that develops over a day on the water, swapping stories and sharing laughs. Whatever it is, our full-day charters offer a chance to experience it all. And let's not forget the potential for dinner – while we practice catch-and-release for many species, you're welcome to keep a few fish for the table (within regulations, of course). There's nothing quite like grilling up the day's catch while reliving the best moments of your trip.
