Jupiter, Florida - Saltwater Fishing Report
120' Jupiter Ledge
The kingfish schools were a little late in showing up this year; but they have flooded in here in a major way. The ledge in Jupiter (120')is absolutely stacked up with Kings in the 8-12lb range. Drifting triple hooked sardines with just a little lead to get it down a few feet does the trick. Be prepared to deal with the bonitas mixed in. If the drift isn't bad drop some of those sardines all the way to the bottom for the big mutton snappers hanging out b elow the kingfish schools.
Also- Make sure to give the commercial kingfish guys a little room. They work way to hard as it is, they deserve a little breathing room. Plenty of fish for all of us as long as everybody uses a little common sense.
Good Luck Guys and Thanks for reading!
