Dolphin
Jupiter, Florida in Palm Beach County, is famous for all types of game fish as they migrate along the famed Sailfish Alley. Dolphin fishing on one of the Reel Candy Charter boats is easy since we can start fishing within three miles of the Jupiter Inlet where the Reel Candy is docked.

Kingfish
We can Kingfish year round off the Jupiter Beaches. Although November till April is the best time to target kingfish.

Swordfish
On the Reel Candy our swordfishing tactics off Jupiter, consist of drift fishing live or dead baits or a combination of live and dead baits. Although large carefully rigged dead squid is the preferred bait, we often use large blue runners, mackerel, or our sailfish favorite goggle eyes. Sometimes the wait is only a few minutes, other times the night drags into morning, but you stand an excellent chance of hooking or catching your swordfish on the Reel Candy on any given night of the year.

Tuna trips begin in April and we begin looking for the birds. Our tuna trips, commonly referred to as “Corner Trips” are a short 60 mile run as begin our early morning trek. These trips consist of one “long day” runs or the extended 3 fishing day weekend excursion. Yellowfin tuna normally are in the 30 to 50 pounds range, but we have caught some reaching 90 pounds.
