    Half Day Trip with Captain Tony (was totally awesome)

    Half Day Trip – Nearshore • 3 adults

    When I booked this charter, I made it clear that we were three peeps looking for some fun times fishing with like-minded folk. Hailing from Lake of the Woods, MN, we are used to fresh water fights (i.e. walleye, pike, musky). This was on a completely different level! Captain Tony and his first mate (also a Captain) did not disappoint! From the moment we stepped on the boat to the last one out, we were having a blast! As a rather lively bunch, we were jamming to some amazing tunes...even the Capt was heard singing along. Overall, the day was great! Caught some kings and a shark. Learned a lot about the sport too (including just how tired your arm gets reeling in a doozy). It is without reservation that I recommend Capt Tony. I cannot wait to return for more fun!

    Making it Happen

    3/4 Day Trip – Nearshore • 4 adults

    Captain Tony went above and beyond to give my nephews the fishing experience of their lives, and the smiles on their faces say it all. I enjoyed the comaraderie almost more than the fishing. Captain Tony is a genuine captain, he knows his craft, and I know through conversation that he is in the business to provide the full fishing experience. I have been on many fishing trips, and I would absolutely recommend Captain Tony for his expertise and customer service. Thank you Captain Tony for showing my nephews how awesome florida fishing can be!

What's biting with Hooking Up Fishing Charters in Jupiter

The fishing action starts to heat up as the weather cools down. Expect to see the first Sailfish appearing as the water temperatures reach the high 70's or low 80's. Inshore, Redfish peaks as it gorges on migrating finger mullet.
