Hey there, fellow angler! Ready for a fishing adventure that'll light up your night? Our 4-hour night fishing trip in Jupiter, Florida is where the real action happens after dark. We kick off at 8 PM, just as the nocturnal fish start getting frisky. Trust me, there's nothing quite like feeling that tug on your line under a starry sky. We'll hit up all the local hotspots – bridges, dock lights, and passes – where the fish are practically lining up to bite. And the best part? No sunburn! Just cool breezes and hot fishing.
Listen up, because this ain't your average fishing trip. We're talking about stalking some serious night-feeders like Jack Crevalle, Snook, Tarpon, Mangrove Snapper, and Ladyfish. These guys come out to play when the sun goes down, and we'll be right there waiting for them. We've got all the gear and know-how to make sure you're in on the action, whether you're a seasoned pro or it's your first time casting a line. And let me tell you, there's nothing like the rush of reeling in a big one under the moonlight.
Alright, let's talk shop. On this trip, we're not just sticking to one playbook. We mix it up with bottom fishing, light tackle, fly fishing, and spinning. It's all about matching our approach to what the fish are in the mood for. One minute you might be delicately presenting a fly, the next you could be working a lure through the shadows. We'll show you the ropes, and before you know it, you'll be hauling in fish like a local. Just remember, in night fishing, sometimes it's what you feel rather than what you see that counts.
Don't just take my word for it. Here's what some of our recent guests had to say about their trips:

Let's break down the all-stars you'll be chasing on this nighttime adventure:
Largemouth Bass: These bruisers are the kings of freshwater, and at night, they come out to hunt. They love to ambush prey around structure, so we'll target them near submerged logs and vegetation edges. A big largemouth can easily top 8 pounds, and they fight like crazy. The thrill of a topwater strike in the dark is something you've got to experience.
Snook: Ah, the snook – the ninja of the night fishing world. These guys are smart, strong, and love to hang around lights and bridges. They've got a distinctive black lateral line and a bucket mouth perfect for inhaling baitfish. Snook are known for their acrobatic jumps and powerful runs. They're most active in the warmer months, making them a prime target for our night trips.
Tarpon: Now we're talking about the silver king. Tarpon are the stuff of fishing legends, growing up to 8 feet long and weighing over 200 pounds. They're prehistoric-looking beasts with scales the size of your palm. At night, they often roll at the surface, giving away their location. Hooking one is just the start – landing a tarpon is an accomplishment you'll never forget.
Ladyfish: Don't let their name fool you – these fish fight like champions. They're often called the "poor man's tarpon" because of their acrobatic leaps and fast runs. Ladyfish are great fun on light tackle and they school up, so when you find one, you've often found many. They're also excellent bait for bigger predators.
Great Barracuda: These toothy critters are the speed demons of the sea. With a mouthful of razor-sharp teeth and a bad attitude, barracuda are always exciting to catch. At night, they patrol around structures and reefs, ready to ambush anything that moves. The strike of a barracuda is lightning-fast, and their initial run can smoke your reel. Just be careful when you're bringing them in – those teeth are no joke!
Alright, folks, let's wrap this up. Our Jupiter, Florida night fishing trip is the real deal. We're talking about 4 hours of non-stop action, targeting some of the coolest fish that swim. Whether you're looking to scratch that fishing itch, want to try something new, or just love being on the water, this trip's got you covered. We provide all the gear, the know-how, and the hotspots – all you need to bring is your sense of adventure and maybe a snack or two.
Remember, we've only got room for 2 on the boat, so it's nice and personal. No crowds, no fuss, just you and the fish. And trust me, once you've felt the pull of a big snook or tarpon in the dark, you'll be hooked for life.
So what are you waiting for? The fish are out there, the night is young, and your spot on the boat is waiting. Give us a call, shoot us a message, or hop online to book your trip. Let's make some night fishing memories that'll have you grinning for weeks. See you on the water!

Great barracuda are the wolves of the reef. These toothy torpedoes average 2-4 feet but can reach 6 feet and over 100 pounds. You'll find them lurking around reefs, wrecks, and other structure from the shallows to offshore. Barracuda are ambush predators with incredible speed - they can hit 35 mph in short bursts. Anglers target them for their vicious strikes and powerful runs. Nothing gets your heart racing like a big 'cuda following your lure to the boat! They're also known for spectacular aerial displays when hooked. For best results, try trolling or casting tube lures, spoons, or topwater plugs. A local trick: when you see a barracuda following, speed up your retrieve to trigger a strike. Just mind those teeth when landing one!
Ladyfish may be small, but they're big on action. These skinny, silvery speedsters usually run 1-2 pounds but can reach 5-6 pounds. You'll find them in coastal waters, bays, and even up into freshwater rivers. They travel in schools, so where you catch one, there are usually more. Ladyfish feed aggressively near the surface, often skipping across the water as they chase bait. Anglers love them for their acrobatic jumps and blistering runs when hooked. They're great sport on light tackle. Try small jigs, spoons, or flies retrieved quickly. A local tip: look for diving birds to find feeding schools. Cast beyond the school and retrieve through it. Hang on tight - ladyfish hit hard and jump immediately!
Largemouth bass are the kings of freshwater fishing around here. These olive-green brutes typically run 1-4 pounds but can top 10. You'll find them lurking near structure in lakes, ponds, and slow rivers. They're ambush predators, so target areas with cover like fallen trees, docks, and weed beds. Spring and fall are prime seasons when bass move shallow to feed. Anglers love largemouth for their aggressive strikes and acrobatic fights. Nothing beats seeing a big bass explode on a topwater lure! To up your odds, try working a plastic worm slowly along the bottom near cover. Let it sit motionless, then give it a slight twitch - that often triggers a bite. Just be ready to set the hook hard when you feel that telltale "thump."
Snook are one of our most prized inshore gamefish. These silvery, streamlined predators average 1-2 feet but can reach over 4 feet and 30 pounds. You'll find them around mangroves, docks, bridges, and inlets. They love structure and moving water. Snook are ambush feeders, so work lures or bait near cover. Spring and fall are prime as fish migrate between inshore and nearshore waters. Anglers go nuts for snook because of their ghost-like ability to suddenly materialize and crush a bait. They also put on aerial shows when hooked. For best results, fish the outgoing tide at night around lighted docks. Use live bait like pilchards or pinfish, or try a white bucktail jig. Just watch those gill plates - they're razor sharp!
Tarpon are the silver kings of saltwater. These prehistoric beasts average 4-5 feet and 80 pounds but can top 8 feet and 280 pounds. You'll find them rolling and gulping air in coastal waters, inlets, and even upriver. They migrate through our area spring through fall. Anglers chase tarpon for their spectacular aerial acrobatics - these fish will launch completely out of the water when hooked. It's a battle you'll never forget. Live bait like mullet or crabs work well, but many prefer the challenge of fly fishing for tarpon. One local trick: chum with live bait to get a school fired up, then cast into the frenzy. Just be ready for an arm-wrenching strike and epic fight. Landing even a small tarpon is a real accomplishment.
