5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 100% will do this again and we will recommend this young man for your experience!!! Capt Jarrod is amazing!!!

December 26, 2024

We did an evening bow fishing charter with Jared my wife and I had two children with us, and he was very accommodating. Full of knowledge and respect for the children as well. A two-year-old and a six-year-old… We had a great time learning and experiencing bow fishing for the first time we highly recommend Carpe Noctum Outfitters to anyone who’s looking to have a good time on the water and learn new things. Thank you Jered, we will definitely be seeing you again in the future.

December 26, 2024

Jarod was such a great teacher and very patient with us on our first ever bow fishing trip. His trips are great for all ages. We had our kids with. Ages 7,8,13 and that is all they have been talking about. The kids ate our catch last night. Their favorites were ..1st place-stingray, 2nd place-mullet and 3rd place - Gar.. If you haven’t ever tried a fishing charter you should. His Airbnb was spotless and right on the canal. We had 6 kayaks to use and boy did we. We saw manatees every time we went out and the river was beautiful.

As avid fisherman, we were curious about bow fishing so we booked with Jared at Carpe Noctum. From the booking process to getting on the water and fishing Jared guided us through the entire process making sure everyone was confident using the bows and even had a left handed bow for my teenage daughter. He made us feel welcome and comfortable throughout the entire trip, I cannot thank him enough for the experience, and cannot wait to book another trip.

December 26, 2024

My brother and I had an awesome experience. Captain Jared was very welcoming and knowledgeable on bow fishing. He was familiar with the local waters and clearly knew where to get fish. Highly recommend going with Carpe Noctum Outfitters. You won't be disappointed.

Had an absolute blast with Jarrod. Learned a lot and shot some nice sized gar. It was a great night out on the water, highly recommend booking with Jarrod!
