Captain Tim worked hard to find the fish on a tough weekend. He traversed the bay and found them, putting fish on the boat for us. Tim and his mate know the waters well, and I would highly recommend them because they care about giving you a successful day and a one-of-a-kind experience.

Big thanks to Captain Tim and David for a great morning of catching striped bass! These guys knew what they were doing and put us on fish all morning long. My 8 year old son and I had an amazing time reeling in big bass. Crew couldn’t have been more accomodating and were always looking to get us on fish. Highly recommend!

Even though the wind and waves werent the most ideal, Captain TJ worked vigorously to put us on fish. He put us on a whole lot of different species from blackfish to strippers. Dave was the hidden gem of the charter. The most attentive first deck hand ive seen. He was working overtime to ensure all six lines were good to go at all time and fish got in the bucket. These two as a combo is just an amazing experience i dont think anyone should miss out! Thanks Capt. TJ and Dave for the trip.

Trip - Fishing Charters NJ | 6 Guest Bottom Fishing Adventure on August 14, 2025

7:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Tim and Jack were excellent. We chose the 7 AM slot to get some of the early morning fish before it got too warm. The 4 hour boat trip included 3 different fishing experiences. We started off doing some bottom fishing for black sea bass, followed by trolling for bluefish, and ended with fluke fishing. It was a very successful fishing day. At the end, Tim filleted all the fish for us. We cooked the seabass and bluefish that night with lemon, garlic and herbs. Delicious! Highly recommended!

Arranged an afternoon striper fishing trip with Captain Tim. The boat was well-maintained and in excellent shape. Captain Tim is both friendly and highly informed. He went out of his way to ensure we had a fantastic experience. We concluded our outing with a generous catch of fish to bring home. I strongly endorse him to anyone interested in fishing. Eagerly looking forward to our next trip on your boat in the coming season. Many thanks, Captain Tim!

Enjoyed an excellent trip, the captain was wonderful to fish with and ensured that I caught some good fish and was satisfied with our journey before we returned for the day. We landed several stripers and a large bluefish. I had a great time and will definitely be returning for another trip.
