Highlights
- 1075 Yarborough St - The Blue Heron Fleet was established in 1955 by Capt. Harry Nagel. The fleet has been family owned and operated with the third generation currently at the helm. Blue Heron offers excellent year round fishing at a great price. The two vessels are the largest and most comfortable in the area. Vessels are custom built aluminum drift fishers that meet and exceed the United States Coast Guard regulations. The cabins offer cushioned seating, settees for catering, and clean men’s and ladies restrooms. The Vessels are equipped with state of the art navigation and fish finding equipment. Both our locations are minutes from prime fishing grounds 20-40 minutes away depending on which hot spot is producing fish catches. Productive reefs (natural and artificial) exist in 50 feet through 200 feet of water. The Gulf Stream comes to its closest point of land around the Palm Beach and Jupiter Inlets. All of our fishing ‘catching’ is done from rac{1}{4} mile to 3 miles from shore. Catches consist of Kingfish, Snapper, Grouper, Mahi-Mahi, Sailfish, Cobia, Barracuda, Sharks, False Albacore and Wahoo. The fare includes rod, reel, bait, tackle, and fishing license. Seasoned crew for a safe family experience.

Memories for a lifetime! - We are locals to West Palm Beach and probably our sixth or seventh time doing going out on Blue Heron charter boat. It’s awesome every time we go. Even when there is a lot of people it’s still rad and end up making friends with all the people on board. Captain and crew do all the work aside from reeling for you. They bate the hooks and re-bate, untangle and whatever you need. My son and I love going out and he asks me all the time to go back out. It’s the perfect amount of time on the water. We make sure to bring food and snacks and lots of drinks for every trip. Overall A+ service.

Great time on the blue heron - We had an amazing experience on the blue heron. Everyone caught fish and the crew members were super friendly and taught you everything you needed to know! I would definitely do this again next time we are back in Florida

The experience was absolutely with the money! - The staff were very attentive to everyone on board. We moved locations a few times to provide better opportunities to catch fish, which we did. The 300 lb. Shark was pretty cool to see, too.

Wonderful!! - We had a great time and the crew was so kind, patient with our kids and out of town visitors, and did everything they could to make our trip enjoyable. I grew up in Florida and have never been on a professional fishing boat but wish I had done this sooner. The price is great and it sure does take away the hassle of getting all the fishing gear together. I’d definitely recommend this to anyone- visitors or locals.

Worst experience ever! Don't do it! - Shoulder to shoulder fishing, lines continually tangling. Little help from crew who were catering to friends on the stern of the boat who were catching all the fish. They were extremely happy, and their smoking was unbearable. Probably the worst fishing experience my Friend and I ever had. I also thought the captain was obnoxious, and called me childish for complaining. Not recommended at all. Also they only used one side of a large boat. Just awful...

Terrible experience - Getting lines tangled with other guests. Do not go during spring break. It is not worth it. The captain should not pack so many people on the boat. It made for a very miserable experience.
