Hey there, fellow anglers! Ready for a killer day on the water? I'm your captain for this 4-hour inshore fishing trip right here in beautiful Jensen Beach. Whether you're a total newbie or a seasoned pro, we're gonna have a blast exploring the inner coastal waterways. It's just you and a buddy (or bring the family - we can fit up to 4), so you'll get my full attention and all the local knowledge I've picked up over the years. We'll hit up my secret spots where the fish are always biting, and I'll make sure you're rigged up right with top-notch gear. Trust me, once you feel that first tug on the line, you'll be hooked!
Alright, let's talk tactics. We'll be doing a mix of light tackle fishing and maybe some sight fishing if conditions are right. I'll show you how to work a jig, finess a live bait, or walk the dog with a topwater - whatever's working best that day. We'll be targeting the inshore honey holes: grass flats, mangrove shorelines, and maybe even some dock fishing if the tide's right. The boat's comfortable and stable, perfect for casting all day without getting beat up. And don't worry if you're new to this - I'll break it down step by step, from tying knots to setting the hook. By the end of the trip, you'll be casting like a pro and hopefully holding up some nice fish for the camera!
Look, I could go on all day about the fishing, but it's more than just that. It's about the whole experience, you know? The way the sun comes up over the water, turning everything golden. The osprey diving for their breakfast. The manatees cruising by, checking us out. And yeah, the excitement when a big snook blasts your lure right next to the boat - that never gets old. But what really makes it special is the stories we'll share, the laughs we'll have, and the memories you'll take home. That's why folks keep coming back year after year. It's not just a fishing trip, it's a slice of paradise.
Snook: These bad boys are the rockstars of inshore fishing around here. They're smart, they're strong, and they put up one heck of a fight. Snook love to hang out around structure - docks, mangroves, you name it. When they hit, hold on tight! Spring and fall are prime time for snook, but we catch 'em year-round. There's nothing like the rush of a big snook exploding on a topwater lure at dawn.
Tarpon: If you're looking for the fight of your life, tarpon are your ticket. These silver kings can push 100 pounds or more, and when they go airborne, it's a sight you'll never forget. They're seasonal visitors, with the best action from late spring through summer. Watching a tarpon roll on the surface, deciding whether to take your bait - man, that'll get your heart racing every time.
Summer Flounder: Don't let their flat looks fool you - these guys are ambush predators with serious attitude. We call 'em "doormats" when they get big, and for good reason. They're masters of camouflage, blending in with the sandy bottom. But when you drift a bait past their nose, they pounce. Flounder fishing is all about finesse and patience, and the reward is some of the tastiest fillets you'll ever have.
Redfish: Ah, good old red drum. These copper-colored beauties are a staple of inshore fishing, and for good reason. They're tough fighters, they're not too picky about bait, and they're just plain fun to catch. Look for their tails sticking up out of the water as they root around in shallow flats - that's the ultimate sight fishing challenge. Fall is redfish prime time, but we catch 'em year-round.
Crevalle Jack: Want a fish that pulls like a freight train? Meet the jack crevalle. These guys are pure muscle, and when they school up, it's like a bar brawl breaks out under your boat. Jacks will test your stamina and your tackle, no doubt about it. They're not known for being great on the table, but for pure, adrenaline-pumping action, you can't beat 'em. When we spot a school busting bait on the surface, hang on - it's about to get wild!
Alright, folks, let's make this happen! You've got the inside scoop on what makes our Jensen Beach inshore trips so dang special. Whether you're dreaming of battling a big snook, want to cross a tarpon off your bucket list, or just want to spend a perfect morning on the water with family, I've got you covered. Remember, this is a private trip for up to 4 people, so grab your fishing buddies or bring the kids along. Don't worry about gear or know-how - I'll take care of all that. All you need to bring is your sense of adventure (and maybe a cooler for your catch). So what are you waiting for? The fish are biting, the weather's perfect, and your spot on the boat is waiting. Let's get out there and make some memories! Book now, and I'll see you at the dock!
Crevalle jacks are the bullies of our inshore waters. These hard-fighting fish average 3-5 pounds but can top 30. You'll find them busting bait schools in our inlets and beaches year-round. Jacks aren't known for their eating quality, but pound-for-pound they're some of the strongest fighters out there. When you see birds diving, there's a good chance jacks are pushing bait to the surface. Cast a topwater plug or spoon into the frenzy and hold on tight. These guys hit like a freight train and don't quit. For a real challenge, try them on light tackle - just be prepared for a long battle. A local tip: when jacks are around, have a heavy rod ready. You never know when a 20-pounder might crash the party.

Redfish are one of our most popular inshore species here in Jensen Beach. These copper-colored beauties average 20-30 inches but can grow over 40. You'll find them tailing in shallow flats or prowling near oyster bars and mangroves. Fall is prime time as they school up to spawn. Redfish are known for their strong runs and delicious flesh. To catch them, look for their distinctive tail waving above the surface as they root for crabs. Cast ahead of them and slowly retrieve a gold spoon or soft plastic. When sight fishing, accuracy is key - get your bait within a foot or two without spooking them. Once hooked, these bulldogs will test your drag system. It's an addictive pursuit that keeps anglers coming back for more.

Snook are a prized inshore species here in Jensen Beach. These sleek, powerful fish typically run 15-30 inches but can reach over 4 feet. You'll find them lurking around mangroves, docks, and other structure in our coastal waters. Spring and fall are prime seasons as snook move between inshore and offshore haunts. Anglers love snook for their aggressive strikes and acrobatic fights - they'll leap clear out of the water when hooked. Their firm white meat is delicious too, though highly regulated. To up your odds, try live bait like mullet or pinfish near structure during incoming tides. Cast parallel to mangrove edges and work your bait slowly. When a snook hits, set the hook hard and hang on for an exciting battle.

Summer flounder, or fluke, are masters of camouflage in our sandy bottoms. These flatfish average 15-20 inches but can reach over 20 pounds. Look for them in sandy areas near structures like reefs or wrecks. Summer and early fall are peak seasons as they move inshore to spawn. Flounder are ambush predators, lying in wait to snatch passing baitfish. Anglers love their delicate, mild flavor. To target them, try drifting or slow-trolling with live bait or soft plastics near the bottom. When you feel a bite, resist the urge to set the hook immediately. Give the flounder a few seconds to fully take the bait, then reel down and sweep the rod to set. It's a delicate dance, but the reward is well worth it.

Tarpon are the silver kings of our local waters. These prehistoric beasts can top 200 pounds and put on an aerial show like no other. You'll find them rolling in our inlets and beaches from spring through fall. Tarpon migrate through, following bait schools and warming waters. They're not the best eating, but the sheer thrill of hooking one keeps anglers coming back. When you see a school of tarpon, cast a live crab or mullet upwind and let it drift naturally. Once hooked, bow to the king when it jumps to avoid breaking off. Landing a tarpon is a true feat - many anglers fish for years before bringing one boatside. It's an experience you won't soon forget.
