Capt Jacks is all about fishing the stunning waters of Delray Beach. With Captain Jack at the helm, you’ll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.
Species like Peacock Bass, Largemouth Bass, Snakehead, Clown Knife Fish, and more are in the cards. You’ll target your catch with light tackle and live bait, artificials are always an option!
Young ones are welcome, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. And, you can’t go wrong with snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!
Your adventure begins aboard a 21’ Triton bass boat that holds up to 3 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but catching live shad (like any fishing) cannot always be garunteed. My suggestion is to ask ahead of time about purchasing shiners as a back up.
You will need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.
Don’t forget to bring sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Fishing since a very young age. I've always had a passion for fishing. Whether it was largemouth bass or marlin. I also have a passion for teaching people more about diffrent fisheries and how to catch more fish. So when I had the opportunity to take people on my own boat and catch crazy exoctic species .... I gladly took it. come join me on one of the fastest and most comfortable boats on the lake, and lets put some fish in the boat ! tight lines ?
Lake Fishing
Lake ida, lake osbourne and its canal system.

Live Bait Well

Ice Box

Live Bait
Although live bait can be provided, catching fresh live bait from the lake cannot be a garuntee like any style of fishing. My suggestion is to ask for a few dozen shiners ahead of time to be on the safe side
