It's time to head to Jupiter, Florida, for an awesome day of fishing with Lucky Chip Charters. Owned and operated by Captain Chip himself, he has over 4 decades of fishing experience in the area. He knows the best places to take you for the most productive day out. He enjoys helping his customers have a top day, especially if this is your first time fishing.

Step on board his 19' flats boat, perfect for groups of 2 anglers to fish from. This boat will get you into those hard to reach areas so you can fish right on top of the fish.

Some of the species you'll be able to target include Snook, Pompano, Jack Crevalle, Ladyfish, Tarpon, Mangrove Snapper, Bull Shark, and plenty more. Whatever your skill level, there is a fish out here with your name on it.

Children of all ages are welcome on board. They'll love reeling in their first fish and will have a great story to tell their friends back at school. There are life vests on board for them.

The captain will provide top quality rods and reels from Shimano, Penn, and Star. There's also a fly fishing rod that he can bring along, but you'll need to give him prior notice.

Depending on the season, you'll either catch live bait at the beginning of the trip or need to buy it at the marina before you begin. After the trip, the captain can clean your catch for you – remember to have a cooler with ice in the car ready to take your catch home in.

You'll need to bring food and drinks along with you on the trip. There's a cooler on board that you can put them in. The captain also offers flexible departure times on his 4-hour trips.

    Great Sunday Morning Fishing Trip

    3/4 Day Trip on July 5, 2026 • 2 adults

    Chip is an excellent and professional guide. He is freindly, knowledgeable, experienced, and cares about the service he delivers. My target was Snook. I also like catching new species. He keyed in on that and put me on some various ones including Blue Runners. I had a blast catching many of each along with Jack Crevalle and Mangrove Snappers. Easy going and hard working is a great combination to have in a guide. I recommend him and will add that the Burt Reynolds Park Marina is among the cleanest and best maintained I have seen around the nation-nice, secure and functional. If you are in Florida on the east coast, book with Chip.

    Best Charter

    Half Day Trip (PM) on November 4, 2025 • 2 adults

    Chip was a good communicator from booking to the meet up. We did a half-day afternoon trip with him. He went out in the morning to catch our bait, more bait than we could use! He was a fantastic teacher and knew where the fish would be. My husband and I caught so many jacks, several snooks and snappers. I lost track of how many fish i caught. Chip was extremely knowledgeable and so easy to chat with while we were out on the water. We would HIGHLY recommend his services for your fishing trip.

    chip has luck!

    Half Day Trip (PM) on July 29, 2026 • 2 adults

    Chip was amazing! Local, born and raised! Made sure we hit the hot spots but challenged our fishing skills in the best way! Never picked up a rod and I can say "he taught me how to fish" (and every fish is different). If you want the reel deal, Captain Chip is your guy!

    College road trip

    3/4 Day Trip on August 18, 2025 • 2 adults

    Taking my son to College in Florida, we fished our way down to Jupiter from Maryland. 4 charters over 6 days to experience the best for last. All of the charters were wonderful, but fished with Captain Chip, a local gentleman who has fished the east coast was exceptional. He put us on 7 varieties of fish,both large and aggressive in the clear Florida waters, and finished the day with a tarpon hook up flurry (4) in a brief span. My son is a good fishermen, I’m not as good, but we both hooked up until we were exhausted. Fishing with Chip is a must do while you’re in south east Florida! We will be back every time we can, don’t miss a chance at an amazing fishing experience

    Great outing!

    Half Day Trip (AM) on April 1, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

    What a great morning with “Lucky Chip”. Captain Chip dropped us into a number of different locations to catch a variety of fish. All of the fish were really fun to catch, and being from Philadelphia I have never caught these fish before. My dad and I caught a number of Snook, Catfish, Jacks, Mangrove Snapper and a Barracuda. Chip taught me how to cast accurately for the Snook and gave me other recommendations on how to reel some of these monsters in. He was a good teacher and we had a lot of fun learning new things. We will be coming back again. Keegan (13), Jeff (Dad)

    Great Guide, Great Time!

    Half Day Trip (AM) on April 18, 2025 • 2 adults

    Chip put us on fish at the first location we hit, my wife and I caught our first snook and we hit at all locations we stopped - even when the wind started kicking up and clouds rolled in unexpectedly. Chip is knowledgeable, helpful (my wife is a novice angler), and friendly - not only to us, but to the folks we ran into at the locations we hit including a couple of kids we saw and he chatted up. Good guy and a great ambassador on the water to the spot we love. Thanks again, Chip! We'll be seeing you again!

Best two days of fishing ever
3/4 Day Trip on October 7, 2026 • 1 adult

Cap Chip Matthews is a highly skilled and knowledgeable captain of the Waters around Jupiter Florida put me on fish right away the first day never caught a snook before and it was a bucket list of mine to go snook fishing caught like eight or nine snook a nice flounder that was unexpectedand my personal best which is not saying much for me since I had never caught a snook before the biggest was about 38 inches It’ll be my personal best until I go again. I would recommend lucky Chip Matthews to anybody that would like to fish with him.

Amazing Time!
Half Day Trip (AM) on August 8, 2026 • 2 adults

I can't say enough about Cpt. Chip and our time on the water. I've chartered a few captains but never met such a passionate, patient, knowledgeable captain and fisherman. My son (13 years -old) and I had an incredible day! When you look for a guide, I strongly recommend that you find someone who really cares about the region, environment, the fisheries. Chip took the time to instruct and really tailored a perfect experience to enrich and deepen mine and my son's love for fishing. We caught snook, tarpon, jack, snapper and a few kitty cats, of course. Thank you, Cpt. Chip, for a perfect day!

Quickie on November 6, 2025 • 2 adults

I highly recommend lucky chip charters for anyone that wants to be put on a variety of diffrent fish. Im am visiting from Connecticut and never have caught Florida species of fish, captain Chip changed that for me. Chip put me and my buddy on many diffrent species of fish and it was a blast, so many first time catches for the both of us! we caught snook,catfish,jacks, moon fish,mangrove snapper and a flonder. Captain chip was awesome and was very helpful and knowledgeable. It was a 10/10 trip, book lucky chip charters if you wanna get some tightlines!
