 ABSOLUTE FANTASTIC ACTION Friday & Sunday.  As good as it gets both days.  Hi-hook in the 30+ range  with mainly Keeper size fish. We had plenty of bonus and overs in the mix too.  Flutter Spoons killed it but almost anything worked today. MONDAG IS REALLY THE ONLY NICE DAY THIS WEEK 


11/26/2022

AWESOME FANTASTIC ACTION CONTINUES! We are taking off Monday thru Wednesday and will be back at it Thursday to Sunday this week.  We will be fishing daily until Dec 18th weather permitting! 

 


11/25/2022

Friday was FANTASTIC! Stripers usually love the crappy weather and they did not disappoint this AM.  Capt Cole reported a early boat limit before 8:30am and tossed back many before heading in early today. Saturday weather looks good but Sunday is a blowout.  We are not sailing Sunday thru Wednesday. Hope to see ya Thursday thru the weekend next week 


11/24/2022

Thanksgiving Day was slower than it has been overall.  We read lots of fish all morning but they were hard to catch.  Hi-hook was Mark with 4, many had a fish but some did not.  


11/23/2022

We had the annual We Cool Toys charter aboard today.  The weather was unbelievable for late November and the fish cooperated well.  In the flat calm the fish were on top a good part of the morning.  Top-water plugs worked well along with the swim shads. 


11/22/2022

Last Marathon provided plenty of action wit the best late in the afternoon. Another full Boat Limit of Stripers keepers and bonus size with lots of short action to keep folks busy most of the day.  We are sold out Wednesday and have 12 open spots left for Thanksgiving Day.  Plenty of room still for Friday - Sunday.   


11/21/2022

Another nice day of Striper action!! Boat limit but took all day with quite a lot of shorts tossed back. Lots of action

11/06/2022

Today the streak of great action came to a screeching halt! First drift we bagged 2 nice Stripers giving us a hopeful start.  After that it was all downhill.  The wind came up hard and put the lights out.  Tomorrow is another day.  This week THURSDAY is the clear BEST DAY 


11/05/2022

Saturday provided some excellent action in the morning for mainly keeper size 32"-38" Stripers.  We did throw a handful of bass over 38" back and saw our first bonus size fish of the season(24" - 28") Weather this week looking like Monday & Thursday best 


11/04/2022

SPECTACULAR MORNING!  Mainly all keepers and lots of em.   7"-9" white Shad's best with fish caught on jigs, spoons and bait too.  Great Day! Weather looking good thru Monday, so get down before this summer like weather ends.

Another GREAT DAY!! First marathon trip with super weather all day. Good shots early, slow with bites mid day and the late bite is ON!! Great Day! Weather looking absolutely SUPER thru Monday. Forecast goes to shit after that. Fishing and weather is on now. Don't wait 7-14 days it may be 40 degrees and crappy fishing then. Come now when lots of action, sunshine and 70 degree temps.     


11/02/2022

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! The weather was perfect and the BASS WERE HUNGRY!  Super morning with the 7"-9" Shad's and a few on spoons.  We had Bass to 45 pounds and we were able to keep almost a bost limit this AM.  Calm conditions and mainly dry for Tuesday and the sun will be out by late morning.  NOW IS STRIPER TIME. Tons of room aboard 


10/30/2022

Very Nice Start  this morning! Half of what we catch are now keeper size the others still too big. Mainly all on 9" Shad's, white/Pearl the better color today 


10/29/2022

Fishing was good Thursday morning!  We did not sail Friday or Saturday.  


10/22/2022

Saturday wasn't another good day! Not as many bites as Friday. The 9" Shad's best today 

 

 

 


10/21/2022

Friday, only a few early but mid-morning the bite has turned on! Lots of Trophy Sized Bass again Turned out to be the best action of the season to date.  The Shad's worked well as did the bunker.  


10/20/2022

Very Nice Start! Good action mid- morning and all over by 11:30am.  Lots of Jumbo Stripers again today, live bait and some on the Shad's too.  Weather best Friday & Saturday.  Sunday looks very iffy and good chance it's a blowout :-(


10/19/2022

The lucky few that showed up today got a rare treat! There wasn't enough to sail this AM so we put em on the 31 Purple Jet and Capt Cole got them into some good live bait action. Jim Stieves & Terry Seligman had fun along with Cole, Erik and Brendan. All Jumbos and a few personal bests were had today.  


10/18/2022

Good Start with bites most of the morning! Some personal bests were attained today: former owner & Captain of Queen Mary JB,  Pat Kameen & Harrison Woodruff.  Fish were taken on 9" Shad's early and bait later in the morning.  Wednesday weather looks nice and the crowds light, so COME ON DOWN. 


10/16/2022

Sunday was slow overall for the Striper Fleet.  We mananaged a handful and lost a few others. Read lots in the bait but tough to get bites.  Dr Aron got a nice one today


10/15/2022

Saturday we had the Greener Corp private charter. The group wanted Porgy action, and the day was a great success. Lots of nice Porgy and ok keeper sea bass too
Sunday back to Stripers 

 


10/14/2022

Took a ittle while to find the bait pods this morning after yesterdays rough weather.  Once in the bait we were able to get some bites!  We are loosing well more than getting to the net.  Please folks check your drags and set them correctly. One guy this AM has busted off 5 himself and refuses to adjust his tight drag. After the first one lost you would figure he might listen? 


10/12/2022

Great Day! Very Nice Action until 9AM with the Jumbo Stripers on live bait.  After the bite was over we hiot a couple wrecks and had action with Seabass & Porgys.  


10/11/2022

Chuck Noona

10/09/2022

Our action was limited to before 9am.  We had a few hooked up early in the bait a couple on shads and some on live bunker.  Lost most of what was hooked. Nick from Manasquan had 4 bites and boated 2 Jumbo Striped Bass that has to go back.  The fish did bite well early way to the north and by us later in day after 3pm.  Tomorrow is another day. Weather looks great thru Wednesday then goes to shit again for Late week.  Hopefully we can build on today.

09/19/2022

NICE ACTION this morning for Bonito & Albys. Some Spanish Macks along with Chub & Frigate Macks too. The surprise was the 3 nice 40-60 pound Bluefin Tuna mixed in. George Hamway using a tiny 40g streaker boated 2.  We did loose a few others.  Check the schedule for the special trips. 


09/18/2022

Weekend Action was very good for cocktail to 3 pound Blues!  A few Spanish in the mix too.  


09/15/2022

Fast Start until the wind came up hard.  Albacore, some Bonito, a few Spanish Mackerel along with a bunch of small blues as the sun was rising.  When the sun popped up with had a blast of Albys. Then the wind came on! A handful of blues and few bones and Alby after for the rest of the day.  It was very rough and we had to retreat to the beach.

Very Good on jigs for Blues to 5 pounds today! The Wednesday Gang all had their limits plus.  Very nice for a change.  


08/30/2022

MAHI BEAT DOWN!  


08/28/2022

Sunday was Awesome compared to Saturday.  Lots of 2-4 pound Blues on bait and some on jigs.  The easterly flow raised the water temps, and the action was back. Many limits were had today.  Only had a few Bonito in the mix today.  Weather looks outstanding again most of this week! Monday, Wednesday & Thursday all have plenty of room.  Tuesday we are offshore and Friday is Sold Out already.  


08/27/2022

Saturday sucked! Hard Southerly winds blew late Friday afternoon and all night driving water temps down almost 8 degrees.  Typical for the action to be way off with that drastic a temp change.  Hopefully Sunday is better. 


08/26/2022

Friday was a bit slower for the Bonito and Alby but we did have a few good cracks at em.  We did have blues and sea bass as well. Nice Day overall 


08/25/2022

08/24/2022

Wednesday started off Bonito, Alby & Spanish Mackerel! Good action  with 1-4 pound blues the rest of the day.  Jigging was the hot ticket today. Smaller stuff best for the exotics. 


08/21/2022

FUN DAY! Limit of Blues to 2.5 pounds early then found limits of QUALITY Sea Bass!  Some BONITO, LING & a few whiting in the mix too.  Very nice mixed bag.  Weather looks great Tuesday - Friday so COME ON DOWN 


08/20/2022

FRIDAY & Saturday was lots of Macks with blues mixed in. Sunday late the bigger Blues popped up and we got a bunch to 7 pounds on poppers 


08/18/2022

Thursday provided VERY GOOD ACTION FOR Blues after the Wednesday Mack Attack! Now that the sea had calmed enough we could get back in where the Bigger Blues have been hanging. The tailed jigs were best and a boat limit was attained before 11am. 


08/15/2022

Both Sunday & Monday provided a nice pick at Blues in the 3-8 pound class on Jigs! Gary and Jake Rossnagel combined for close to 20 blues Sunday. Monday was good all morning. Ken and Marian combined for 14 to 7 pounds.  George had 12. Wednesday Gang all had fun.  


08/13/2022

Blues cooperated on jigs for a little while late in the day. Slow most of the morning but around 11am. We started to pick some each drift then it built to 10-12 a drift the last hour.  Frank Young and crew actually had a nice day capturing quite a few all on jigs p


08/12/2022

The up & down that has been the 2022 season was in-between yesterday.  We picked and plucked and the better fishermen did well on Poppers.  Those who could not cast struggled.  George has 12+ Pat Kameen with 7 and other es had 3-5 fish.  Many of the folks who did not put in max effort had 0-2.  The fish are there but they are not jumping in the boat many days this season. Those who have know how and work hard generally get rewarded.  


08/10/2022

Picked slower today at the larger Blues.  One Good Friday and picked some on others in the morning.  Worked back towards the inlet and found the cocktail to 2pound blues to end the day with some decent action. Overall not a bad day 


08/09/2022

After a tough Monday, Tuesday was back to GOOD ACTION! We had larger Blues today, 3-7 pound Blues. Poppers and swim plugs worked best.  Weather looking nice Wednesday, Friday & the weekend 


08/07/2022

Sunday provided Very Good Action for cocktail to 3 pound Blues. A early boat limit of Bluefish before 9:30am.   We finished the day with a limit of Sea Bass!  Great Day 


08/05/2022

SUPER DAY! LIMITS OF BLUES 1-3 pounds before 9am.  Nice pick of Sea Bass the remainder of the day! 

There is a video of the action on Facebook and Instagram 


08/04/2022

Good Action early and again 10:30-12:30! Nice mixed bag of fish.  Blues, Sea Bass, Macks & a nice Bonito! Colin in the red shirt handing with his buddy Landon both 12 years old had a great day as you can see.  They told me they released 30+ Mackerel too!  Colin was the lucky Pool winner today with a Blue about 4pounds.  


08/03/2022

Ok action for Blues today.  limits of blues to 5 pounds with hi-hook 10+ 


08/03/2022

Ok action for Blues today.  limits of blues to 5 pounds with hi-hook 10+ 


08/02/2022

Tuesday was the best showing of Bluefish in almost 2 weeks! Lets hope it's the beginning of something good and not a flash in the pan.  We picked at larger Blues 4-8 pounds on poppers first couple hours. George Hamway and Dan Cota both had their limits + before 9am.  When that slowed a move  produces smaller 1-4 pound blues mainly on jigs. Hi- hook had over 30 blues and many folks had their limits. Tons of room tomorrow, Wednesday come on down


07/31/2022

Overall fishing is on the slower side and is a mixed bag past couple days.  Some Blues, Sea Bass, Fluke and Ling. Every catches a few of something but it's no ball of fire.  The weather has finally started to cooperate in that many of the past 10 days has been on the calmer side. So the days have been enjoyable while picking at a carriers of species. We are doing what we can to create a catch until something really picks up.  Pics are from past couple days 


07/29/2022

US Tank  Painters chartered the vessel today.  We having a nice day enjoying the calm conditions ans pick and pluck at Sea Bass and Fluke 


07/27/2022

Picked at the Blues early and then some sea bass! Ok action 


07/24/2022

Went looking offshore out to 25 miles and came up empty.  The bonus to this was the SUPER QUALITY we found on the wrecks out that way.  Picked very nice sized Sea Bass to 21" pool winner.  Some ling spiced the catch too. 


07/23/2022

TOUGH DAY FOR BLUES AGAIN! We did kinda pick as Rick and George each had their 5 Bluefish limit. We switched it up around 10am and picke away at Sea Bass with some nice keeprs and a few ling mixed in


07/21/2022

Today, Thursday we had a private event.   We put Lindsey Klein's famiky and crew into lots of action.  Mainly Sea Bass with a few ling.  The ratio is getting tough for keepers but it was about action with the families and  kids.  Tomorrow Friday we will back on the hunt for Blues 


07/20/2022

Wednesday was a tough day! Pretty much stunk.  First real clunker in a while.  The best fishermen had some but the rental rod folks struggled mightily.  Read a lot in a few spots but catching was another story.  Jim Steel was Hi-hook with 5 blues and Jim Gillespie has 3 Blues. We did pick some sea bass towards the end of the day to get folks some sort of action.  


07/18/2022

Monday provided some excellent action!  Close to the inlet we found lots of cocktail sized Blues to 2 pounds. We didn't stay with it long and many folks had 2-5 blues early.  We found the larger fish about a hour later and the popper bite was hot until noon.  Chris Long was hi-hook with over 25 and had the 2 Blues on one popper 


07/18/2022

Monday provided some excellent action!  Close to the inlet we found lots of cocktail sized Blues to 2 pounds. We didn't stay with it long and many folks had 2-5 blues early.  We found the larger fish about a hour later and the popper bite was hot until noon.  Chris Long was hi-hook with over 25 and had the 2 Blues on one popper 


07/17/2022

Very Good on Poppers this weekend!  Monday & Wednesday look best with Tuesday being canceled.  Wednesday Is forecast calmest of week  


07/15/2022

Friday VERY GOOD ACTION on poppers early. The fish on poppers were mainly all gaffers 5-10 pounds.  Later we found fish in deeper water that wanted jigs.  We picked at mixed sized Blues to 5 pounds until 11ish. When the tide stopped so did tbe bite.  Picked maybe 18-20 blues after 11am.  

 

 


07/14/2022

Thursday saw good action on mainly Topwater poppers early before finding fish in deeper water that wanted the jigs.  Good action until 11am before I took the small crowd for Sea Bass to end the day


07/13/2022

Ok day! Weather was Superb and the action good to start but when the tide ended so did the action. We made a 25 minute move and we picked and plucked some more blues along with a dozen or so macks before switching over to Sea Bass for the last 1.5 hours of the day.  


07/11/2022

Better action with the Blues Monday morning.  We picked at blues better on jigs today until 10am.  From 10-11 we picked at Sea Bass and some Ling until the wind came up too hard. After 11:30 it sucked.  We are canceled Tuesday. Wednesday - Friday are forecast NICE! Hope to see ya aboard


07/10/2022

Nice day aboard!  Weather was very nice and the Sea Bass action was good. The blues again were tough early. We did manage to fight the Gillnetter for a spot a few times and boated some.  Topwater and jigs got em but it just wasn’t fast enough, so we went for sea Bass around 9:30am.  Lots of action  and many got some keepers for the table.  Monday & Wednesday weather looks GREAT! Come on Down


07/09/2022

Slow overall yesterday.  We did have a couple guys with their limit of 5 Blues to 8 pounds. Most had 1-3 fish on jigs and poppers. Nothing was really better than the other as Bert had 5, 3 on red tail jig and 2 on top-water and lost a few others as well.  Read fish all day but tough to catch


07/08/2022

ANOTHER NICE MORNING OF TOPWATER ACTION! 


07/06/2022

Another nice day aboard the Queen!  We picked and plucked all day with a couple of decent shots earlier in the day.  Again, topwater poppers and swim plugs best.  Jigs did catch but the topwater is the way to go if you know how to do it.  Billy from Philly was hi-hook with 15 blues.  The kids Tyler & Joey pictured below with Grandpa Rocco,  showed the older folks how to pop the blues.  They had a blast and boated close to their limit.  We had a surprise keeper Striper today mixed in with the blues too. Thursday is a no sail and Friday looks calm.  See ya aboard!!


07/05/2022

What a different day compared to yesterday. This AM the Blues popped up and we followed them for miles until 11am.  Topwater best but the jigs caught well today too. Lots of limits of Blues before 9:30am.  We spent the last hour picking at Sea bass and a few ling.  Wednesday now looks very nice forecast and Thursday is falling apart.  Come on down Wednesday! Sunny 80 and calm.


07/04/2022

Happy 4th everyone!  GORGEOUS WEATHER! Blues were tough early and the weather perfect for drifting Sea Bass so we didn’t wait it out. Lots of families so we left for the Sea Bass at 10am.  Steady action with some ling and keepers mixed in with lots of short sea bass.  Nice day.  We have plenty of room aboard for Tuesday.we will hope the Blues bounce back tomorrow.  The scheduled Tuna trip is pushed back another week.  See ya aboard


07/03/2022

Very Good top-water action! Andrew Sokal had over 25 on poppers.  Chris Long fishing along size Andrew had 20+ too.  Jigs did catch but the top water was far superior. Lannie used a SP minnow to bag close to 15 and won the pool with a 10 pounder.  


07/01/2022

Friday's Very Good early till 10am then we picked at Sea Bass and ling to end the day. Topwater plugs and poppers were HOT along with jigs.  
 

 


06/30/2022

Capt Cole at the helm and he got a few real good shots of Blues up to 10 pounds early.  A couple old school drifts mid-morning cappped the day!  Many limits of Blues with George Hamway hooking over 30 today.  When the bite was on, top-water action was the way to go.  Jigs worked too but those who could work a popper had fun watching them get blasted and time after time.  Weather looks great for Friday & Monday. Saturday is iffy and Sunday should be calm, cloudy and mainly dry.  We have plenty of room aboard Sunday & Monday.  


06/29/2022

Nice weather and some solid action today!! The action took awhile to come together but in the end the best day since Friday. Tom Ford came out for some mental therapy and had his limit of blues before the good action even started. Red-Tail A-27’s best today. When the action became consistent the top-water plugs killed it!  If you have poppers make sure you have em ready if the fish pop up.  Tomorrow, Thursday we have a light crowd so grab your gear and head on down.  Friday, weather looking very nice too. See ya aboard


06/26/2022

Sunday made Saturday seem great.  In a word, terrible, about sums it up.  We did have some bluefish to 6 pounds before 10. One decent drift gave us all hope but it was short lived.  We switched up for Fluke but that was even worse. Monday we are canceled due to rain and sea conditions.  Tuesday and Wednesday look nice! Hope to see ya aboard 


06/25/2022

Saturday started out ok but fizzled by 9:30. We picked 1-3 a drift the rest of the day. Slower overall  A few surprise Cod in the mix


06/24/2022

FANTASTIC MORNING! Capt Cole at the helm put the Wed Gang and crew on the MEAT!! Early boat limit of Blues with many in the 4-6 pound range today!  It's a nice mix from 2-8 pounders!  Boat limit at 10am now headed for some Fluke to end the day 

 

 


06/23/2022

Good Start, slow middle and ended with a BANG!  Overall another fine day with the Blues to 8 pounds!  George Hamway was hi-hook with over 20 Blues to 8 pounds and was also the pool winner!  Many limits all on jigs with A-17's & 27's working best!! 


06/21/2022

LIMITS OF 2-4 pound Blues early this AM. We switched up once the boat had a full Bluefish limit. The second half of the day we picked well at Fluke.  Lots of action with some nice keepers in the mix!  Pictured below this gentleman had both a bluefish & a Fluke limit!   

 


06/20/2022

Was a fun morning.  Many early limits of Blues to 4 pounds.   These 3 combined for their 15 bluefish limit (5 per person) before 8:15am.  They tossed back over 50 more!! Tuesday looks calm and boat is very light patronage on weekdays this time of year. COME ON DOWN!!


06/19/2022

HAPPY Fathers Day!
Much better action today!  What a difference a day can make! We picked at Blues until 9:45. Once the tide turned and the action backed off we headed off the beach for Sea Bass. With a little less wind than predicted we were able to get off the beach 6-7 miles and pick away. That was ok action with lots of recycling but we did manage to pick keepers too. Monday is the BEST OF THE WEEK WEATHER. Hope
to see ya aboard.


06/18/2022

Tough Day, in fact it absolutely stunk!  The folks who follow the Queen Mary posts know we tell it like it is.  The game plan : A, catch some blues first and then, plan B, Sea Bass later went out the window early.  When the forecast NW 15-20 winds ratcheted up to steady 25+ with gusts from the N-NW., we were stuck on the beach all day.  The blues never cooperated as the boat ended up with a whopping 8 for the day.  The folks who fish here know the deal.  Those who don’t are probably gonna think we stink and don’t give  a Rats Ass.  These are the folks, who will write a bad review and that don’t realize I burned more fuel today vs and day all season riding around looking and hoping to find a patch of fish to make the day.  The Sea Bass action wasn’t much better and I really didn’t want to catch almost nothing and get 25+% of the boat sea sick to catch the same crap. Well tomorrow is another day maybe it will produce a bit better.  Those who are booked tomorrow, if you are flexible, come Monday or another date. If not we will see ya in the AM


06/17/2022

Nice first showing of Bluefish today!! 


06/16/2022

Pick some nicer SeaBass here and there but the keeper ratio is getting tougher by the day.  It was slow early and lots of action late.  The afternoon was forecast calm but the weatherman fibbed. Turned into E-SE 20+ by 6pm.  Lots of current due to the Giant Full Moon the past few nights.Folks had to use 10-12 ounce weights to hold bottom.  Usually a recipe for disaster and it was for the afternoon trip.  Some ling and Sea Bass were boated by slow & uncomfortable overall. 


06/13/2022

Slower overall but we did pick some quality Sea Bass and some fat ling.  George Won the pool with a 20" Sea Bass and had his limit plus. 


06/12/2022

This weekend the action wasn't all that hot but we picked and plucked and had lots of nice quality size Sea Bass! 


06/10/2022

Great Weather and OK action but lots of quality keeper Sea Bass!  
 


06/07/2022

Tuesday overall was tough! We could not get off to where we had great fishing yesterday. The hard South wind  came up early and is now forecast to blow into Thursday.  We did have plenty of action most of the morning.  The keeper ratio was poor.  Once it got a bit too squirlly we came in early.  Too bad the folks couldnt come Monday for the perect weather forecast I pushed all weekend.  We are canceled until Friday.  Next trip with openings is Sunday AM &PM trip.  Hope to see ya aboard 

 


06/06/2022

WHAT A DAY!! Perfect weather and a Full Boat Limit! We saw signs of top water species for the first time this season on our way out this AM.  Hopefully this is a sign of things to come.  The Sea Bass action picked up steadily after 10am. The last hour was very good.  FULL BOAT LIMIT!  


06/05/2022

The weekend produced spectacular weather and the fishing at times was just as good.  Saturday, was slow early but very handy after 10am.  The afternoon trip was action packed.  Sunday was the opposite.  Better early and slowed up late. The afternoon again was good.  Monday is best bet this week! 


06/03/2022


06/02/2022

MUCH BETTER WEATHER AND GOOD ACTION CONTINUES!  Tomorrow will be nice after 9am, light crowds good action COME ON DOWN! 


06/01/2022

Some Phenominal Weather for the Memorial Day Holiday weekend!   The good action overall prevailed thru Monday but was tough Tuesday AM until 11am when the tide switched we started picking away. Today, Wednesday, we had Peiffer Machine aboard for their annual charter.  We departed late as the NE wind was honking early.  Long slow ride paid off and we banged away with lots of action. The keeper ratio is getting harder but we still manage to get plenty of keepers. The boat is very light Thursday and Friday. Hope to see ya aboard! 


05/26/2022

Capt Cole had the boat Thursday.  The weather turned out to be as nice as the fishing.  Early boat limit! Steady action with good jigging and fish on bait as well.  Weather looks OK Saturday and SUPER for Sunday & Monday. 


05/23/2022

Sunday and Monday produced nice action with many limits of Sea Bass.  Stoney and Jack were the hot anglers  Monday. Jack jigged all day keeping his limit quickly. Stoney was on bait and kept pace with some real quality in the mix 


05/21/2022

Saturday was slower overall! We picked and plucked most of the day. The quality wasn't there today.  Lots of recycling. Tomorrow I'm gonna look a different direction.  We are very light with reservations Subday.  COME ON DOWN!!


05/20/2022

Thursday was a no sail too nasty!

Friday we had Jose Angeles Painting group aboard and they were treated to some Hot Action!   Early Boat limit and the jig bite was SAVAGE the first 2 hours DC


05/17/2022

11/20/2021

FABULOUS ACTION 

After a couple tough days the action bounced back and we had a fun day and lots of action and fish.  Shads 9" still best with 6-7" shads a close second white or chartreuse best 


11/15/2021

Slow start NICE FINISH!!


11/14/2021

A pick most of the day with a bunch of Jumbo Blues in the mix today.  A few limits and read tons of fish but they were difficult to catch.  


11/13/2021

Capt Cole at the helm! He picked and plucked fish till mid morning when the wind came up so hard the drift was just too fast.  Went in early to avoid the big storm front that came thru just before 2pm. 


11/12/2021

Too rough NO SAIL 


11/11/2021

BEST ACTION FOR BASS so far this season. Lots of limits and hi hook had 12+. Bass to 40" 


11/10/2021

VERY NICE DAY!! Mainly JUMBOS  we did manage a dozen to keep while tossing lots back!! 


11/09/2021

A typical Striper kinda Day. Action early then pick and pluck the rest of the day.  We had keepers and over early then all overs after 9:30am.  Shads best again 


11/09/2021

A typical Striper kinda Day. Action early then pick and pluck the rest of the day.  We had keepers and over early then all overs after 9:30am.  Shads best again 


11/06/2021

Saturday, a bit better overall today. Had a couple decent drifts early then picked and plucked here and there rest of the day.  Most were Keepers with 5 too large up to 45" the 9" Shads(white or chartreuse)  still best  make sure you bring some shads 


11/05/2021

Friday the fish were not as cooperative.  We picked some early and struggled the rest of the day.  Fish were there but too close to beach for me to get in that shallow   Tomorrow is another day!


11/04/2021

Thursday Striper Marathon was another successful day! Lots of overs with most able to keep one today.  Hi hook had 4 to 47"

Davin & Colin both 12 years old, from Pt Pleasant Beach. They had lots of fun catching bass and are the pic of the day  

9" WHITE SHADS worked BEST make sure you have them.  


11/03/2021

Wednesday even better!  Lots of overs to 52" along with quite a few keepers on live bait and 9" Shads. It's STRIPER TIME

The fish are here now! Dont wait 2 weeks get your ass down now while it's good and weather is cooperating 


11/02/2021

Tuesday , SOLID STRIPER ACTION!! Lots of bites and many boated. Most were too large up to 47"and had to go back.  We did boat a few keeper size fish  mainly all live bait. Get your snags and 9/0 circle hooks ans come on down!! 


10/18/2021

Picked at Sea Bass.  Only 1/2 pounds blues with a couple of micro Bonito in the mix jigging this AM 


10/17/2021

Lots of wind and slow fishing picked some tiny Blues 


10/15/2021

Very nice day for a change!  We ventured offshore to wrecks 25-30 miles and did keep some quality Sea Bass and about 100 jumbo porgy too!  

 


10/02/2021

FABULOUS DAY
All the Blues you could want to 10 pounds along with a nice showing of Alby. Tons of room and weather can't be better tomorrow and Monday. HOPE TO SEE YA ABOARD 


09/30/2021

BEST EXOTIC ACTION OF THE SEASON!!

With basically no Bonito or Alby all season today we got lucky and found some Bonito, Alby & Spanish Mack action.  Lots of tiny to 2 pounds Blues along with tons of 10-13" weakfish too.  The action was early & late but we picked and for 2021 season that was great.  Ended up with 40+ Bonito, 15 Alby, 10 big Spanish and lots of small Blues and weaks. 


09/26/2021

Saturday Sept 26 

MACK attack!!  Small Blues early them LOTS OF MACKS the rest of the day

 

 


09/18/2021

BEST SHOWING OF ALBY TO DATES:

Saturday we picked at the blues early then some fish popped up and we found a large area of Alby & Blues splashing.  Good Action with both to end the Day! Hi hook had 5 Alby the expoxy jigs and streaker style was best for Alby. 


09/16/2021

Well the Flat calm prediction was NE 15-20 so I really could not venture to the areas I really wanted to after 8:30am.  it just was getting too sloppy to make all the rounds as I had planned.  Pot hopping was out! We settled for some Blues after 11:30 to catch something.  This just may be a complete dud of a exotic season.  The offshore reef was covered with nets and I could not even fish there.  Monsters Ledge zero bites and I never rea a thing in the Mud Hole at all.  The Southern Lumps were all looked over a couple days before with little sucess a few days earlier.  Maybe Next week we will find what should show up.  

 


09/13/2021

Monday started inshore with Blues in the 3- 5 pound class.  It was a pick with the better fisherman catching the majority of the action.  I made a move offshore and found an area of smaller Blues 1.5 - 3 pounds. These bit their head off and most had their limit after the first drift.  It was Fast Action on the Plain diamond jigs, with the A-17 size the best. Dan Cota & Brendan not had over 30 using a small epoxy type lure.  Jack Schocklin, Jim Stieves & Mike Payne all had great days as well  

 


09/11/2021

We didn't fish most of the week. Got some needed TLC done and we were back at it today, Saturday!  Started off tight to the beach with some smaller weakfish early along with some small blues mixed in.  Around 8am the bigger blues popped up and we had FAST PACED Action all morning till the tide slacked around 11am.  Ken & Marian combined for over 30 and most had limits+ of Blues to 9 pounds.  We are sold out Sunday but weather looks great Monday and we are light crowds on the weekdays now  hope to see ya aboard! 

 


09/06/2021

The clouds broke on our way up the beach this AM.  The seas were calm, the sun came out and best of all the Blues cooperated!  The best action in over a week!  Many Limits and all the rentals rods were able to pick at them.  The average size weaks larger with many 5-7 pounders mixed in.  


09/05/2021

The South Wind came roaring up quick this AM!  In short order it was not nice.  We had to anchor up and we caught the mackerel well.  We only had a dozen or so Blues mixed in with lots of macks.  


09/04/2021

Saturday fishing was a notch better!  The more experienced anglers had their limit +   The rental rod folks were able to get a few.  


09/03/2021

We did not fish Wednesday or Thursday.  Friday we found lots of fish sometimes on top splashing and I read massive amount of fish. Getting them to bite was a challenge!  We did have some with limits. Including Alex Lin who along with his 8 year old son combined for a limit. The last hours was best so let's hope that's a good sign for tomorrow.  Weather looks calm right thru Monday.  So come on down and enjoy perfect temps and calm sea conditions  


08/29/2021

Too Rough to fish this weekend 


08/27/2021

Great Day Aboard for the JMG Realty  trip. Wonderful weather, limits of quality Sea Bass! A good time had by all.  


08/26/2021

Thursday's first inshore exotics trips covered the sign but it was far from good. 1 big Mahi, handful of Alby and one Bonito. We did have a bunch of sea Bass limits as we fished some structure throughout the day.  Some Chubb and frigate mackerel too.  Lots of looking and vert little life found overall 


08/25/2021

OVERALL BLUES HAVE BEEN PRODUCING WELL! Most days high hook has been over 20 with many folks getting their limits plus.  Today, was excellent fron 9-11 slow before and just a pick after.  The Wednesday gang all had 20+ Blues up to 7 pounds.  A-27 plain jigs best most of the summer. 


08/19/2021

Ben Gilkey's group enjoyed some EXCELLENT ACTION with blues in the 3-5 pound class most of the day! 


08/18/2021

Great Day for most! Those who could did very well. Those who couldn't not nearly as much. The Wednesday Gang all had 25+ bluefish each.  Many of the novices picked up what we were teaching and had their limit of Blues.  Some who just could not get it or just not trying hard had a 1-3. You must feel the diamond jigs very fast to get a bite. They are chasing small fast bait. If the lure is reeled half speed or less NO BITES.  GOTTA REEL FOR A MEAL


08/17/2021

Very Nice Day on the tuna grounds! Tough start early for us, but mid-day to late afternoon we picked away making many drifts picking 1-3 a drift and in the end had a very nice day! Tony lost a fish early on bait then around 10:30am hooked a monster on 40lb leader.  Took over an hour  with Erik on it for a while.  I had to chase the fish down in the process.  Big Yellowfin over 130 pounds.  Jig and bait both produced. Pics to be added later 


08/16/2021

Offshore Whale & Dolphin watching trip was a huge success!  Lots of Finbacks & Minke Whales and tons of common porpoise to delight the folks.  We even spotted a Humpback on our way back home.  Great Trip 


08/15/2021

Sunday was Horrible


08/14/2021

Saturday was much better, the best Bluefish action of the week.  We had Swing Kingdom charter aboard. The crew listned well and learned fast. Theye put the effort in and caught nearly a boat limit of 150+ Blues to 7 pounds before asking to switch it up for Sea Bass.  The Sea Bass action was abit slower but we still had a nice bnusel basket of Keepers by trips end.  Very NIce Day


08/13/2021

Friday was better than the rest of the week so far.  Some Blues but hard to catch.  The Sea Bass action was very good! 


08/12/2021

Better morning with the Blues before we switched over to Sea Bass for the last hour or so.  Lots of nice quality Sea Bass today

 


08/07/2021

FABULOUS FAST PACED BLUEFISH ACTION! As good as it gets from 7:40 to 10:30am. We picked at Sea Bass to finish the day. We left the Blues biting once folks were tired of releasing fish to 10 pounds.  


08/05/2021

Another VERY GOOD DAY for jigging Blues to 10 pounds.  


08/04/2021

Good Action with Blues to 11 pounds today!  We are seeing larger and more frequent numbers of the larger  blues in the mix this week


08/03/2021

Well 2 gorgeous weather Tuna Trips in a row  didn't equal 2 with big yellowfin. Worst tuna trip in 2 seasons. We did manage one 50 pound Tuna.  We fought a bunch of big Southern Rays during the day in different spots.  Fish are there, life is there but we didn't catch em.  Some boats got a handful.  Others stroked it ljke us. Can't get em all the time, so let's hope the next one is an up trip!  


08/02/2021

WILD WILD BLUEFISH ACTION! Best day in 10 years! 


08/01/2021

Past few days Been very good! Today, Sunday, started off very well petered out by 930. Midday stunk and we picked at them late


07/28/2021

Another VERY NICE day of Blues to 10 pounds all on jigs! Hi-hook Gary had over 30 today.  


07/27/2021

QUALITY YELLOWFIN!  Went 4 for 5 up to 90 pounds!   Not enough bites but read plenty and weather was spectacular 


07/26/2021

OPPOSITE OF THE WEEKEND! Slow start with a good finish! After 10 we picked away with Blues in the 4-10 pound range!  Pictures is Ava with a nice one! 


07/25/2021

ROUGH was the word this AM!  The Blues though were not phased by it.  We picked away most of the morning with many limits before 10am  mixed size fish to 7 pounds.  


07/24/2021

Very Good Start this AM with Blues 2-7 pounds.   FIRST HOUR was the best! After 10 it was slow and by 10:30 it was over. We picked some Sea Bass to end the day.  Weather looks bouncy for Sunday. Monday & Wednesday looking nice and CALM


07/23/2021

Picked at Sea Bass all morning but the action was not fast at all.  The Blues we picked at slowly towards end of day.   Ok day at best 


07/22/2021

VERY GOOD SEA BASS ACTION with a early boat limit with quality sea bass!  The blues were no good Thursday


07/17/2021

BETTER ACTION vs Friday!  Picked better at the Blues with 2-8 fish a drift until 10am when we switched up and went for Sea Bass the second half of the day.  Sea Bass provided nice action with lots of keepers 


07/16/2021

No way to say it except SUCKED! I read fish most of the day and caught one every once in a while.  Maybe, they are ready to spawn or it was just an off day.  After 5 weeks of consistent action with Blues we were bound to have a off day.  Lets hope it doesnt last long.


07/14/2021

Nice Pick of Blues today! The Size class was a bit nicer with many 4-6 pounders and some 7 pounders in the mix today. Pool winners was close to 9 pounds.  Plain or tailed A-27's diamond jigs working best.  Many had Limits plus with Hi-hook close to 25 Weather looks good Thursday & Friday. Hope to see you aboard. 
 

 

 

 


07/13/2021

Very Good Action from grey light to 9am.  Lots of bites many released, and some surprise catches too! The bites started quick, less than 5 minutes in we had a fish on. We held 2-4 on for a little on our first drift. All Bluefins up to 50 pounds all on jigs!  A few boated 2 and many got one and lost others.  Excellent Trip!! 


07/11/2021

Better Action overall today! LOTS OF BLUES the first couple of hours.  10am to 11am the action was just a pick and after 11AM it was slow.  Good Day over all.  We got to witness a wonderful Whale Show to excite most.  Tuna Tuesday I have high hopes as there have been lots of fish being caught since the NE blow a week ago.  We do have one open spot left for this Tuesday.  Look to Wednesday thru Friday as weather looking BEST mid to late week. Offshore Whale is canceled for MOnday 


07/10/2021

Another nice day aboard! We had to work at it to put a decent catch of Blues together today.  Hopped and looked and found after the Tropical Storm moved things around. We had a few nice Dusky Sharks and a mako mixed in too! See ya aboard. Weather looks SUPER SUNDAY and there is lots of room 


07/08/2021

Very Similar to Wednesday! Pick & Pluck most of the day with the better fisherman getting many and the rental rod folks working at it all day to manage a limit or close to it.  The Blues are still 3-5 pounds with pool winner clost to 9 pounds most days.  Sunday BEST this coming weekend.  Monday looks good for the offshore whale watching trip.  Tuesday Tuna still has 2 open spots and weather from here looks promising 


07/07/2021

Good Action most of the Day many limits and hi hook was close to 25 up to 8 pounds.  Very nice bluefish action continues all on jigs. Weather looks great for tomorrow mornings trip, crowds are light come on down. Never know what this storm on Friday will do to the fishing get it while it's hot 


07/05/2021

Weekend was AWESOME Fishng!  Lots of Blues to 10 pound pool winner both Sunday & Monday 


07/01/2021

WE did not have enough participation today 


06/30/2021

Very Good Bluefish Action Sunday & Monday! 


06/29/2021

The first tuna trip had more action than expected after the reports the prior few days were mostly slow.  We had 2 Bluefin Tuna a bunch of Albys and before sun-up 45 minutes of Awesome Jigginf for true Jumbo Bluefish most were 10-16 pounds.  We drove away from the Bluefish to start tuna fishing shortlyh before sunrise.  Conditions were very sloppy and fog all day.  


06/26/2021

Very Good early and picky late today.  Early  Boat Limit with many folks tossing back over a couple dozen by days end.  Pool winner was Ken Fuchs with a sold 7.5 pound Blue


06/24/2021

Wednesday & Thursday end up Very Good with jig action for Blues to 8 pounds. Today was super calm and the last hour the Top-water action was the best of the year! 
8:30am COOLER CHECK 

Nice Top Water Action today 


06/21/2021

A very nice start with jigging Blues to 7 pounds!  Lots of action until 10am.  We switch to sea bass but the wind came up and had to anchor up. We picked Sea Bass but the pace was slower than I would have liked. Good day overall 


06/20/2021

Fathers Day was excellent! Fast paced action for Blues early then a very nice pick of Sea Bass the last couple of hours.  Greg Mallet won the pool with a 8 pounder.  
The afternoon southerly came up hard and made it tough for the afternoon trip.  


06/19/2021

Hopes were high early as the early boats were catching well.  About 10 minutes before we arrived on scene the Dolphin arrived.  The  increased presence of dolphin in our waters is a double edged sword. Yes, it's great for folks to see them. The downside is they love to eat tasty Blues!  The first couple hours were tough but with bouncy conditions further off the beach I stuck it out where it was comfortable for the customers.   As the morning grew long he blues began to gather back up   Around 11am the bites were  consistent.  By noon it was old fashioned Bluefish action.  So a tough day turned very fruitful with a very good last hour of Fast Bluefish action 


06/18/2021

Fabulous day for Mike DeSena's group aboard for a Fishing Bachelor Party.  The Blues cooperates very well to 7 pounds and once they had enough we hit the sea bass grounds  the surprise of the day was the nice Striper on a jig! 


06/17/2021

06/06/2021

Savage Jig Bite Tuesday!! Boat Limit with lots of action and quality.  A-27 jig with a teaser 18" above was killer.  Hi hook had well over 30 keeper size fish with many shorts tossed back. 


05/31/2021

AWESOME ACTION after the Storm
I had very low expectations after a 3 day NE blow heading out this AM.  We start drifting and jigging Sea Bass ok with those who knew how to jig well getting an easy early limit.  After 10:30 we anchored up and many switched to bait and we headed home early with a boat limit of quality Sea Bass.  I heard the charter guys talking about lots of Stripers they read and saw. They did troll some but the readings were very impressive. I will look for Stripers and Blues first the next few mornings if it sounds like the bite is on.  Weather really looks nice this week.  Bookings are slow so come on down. Enjoy nice weather, good action and an empty boat. Pic is of Brian Welch ans his daughter Autumn  they combined for their limit of Sea Bass 


05/28/2021

Fabulous Action & Weather Thursday! Savita entertained some clients yesterday and the gods must have been smiling on her.  The weather was perfect, calm seas, sunshine along with perfect temp.  The fishing may have been better than the weather! Constant action with nice quality size sea bass. We had some Ling and a handful of whiting too.  Bait as well as jigs worked well. Monday is next fishable day. Tuesday looks to be the best day of the week 


05/23/2021

Sunday produced Blues with Sea Bass!   Big Swell from the Tropical System off Bermuda definitly hurt the action & made it tough to fish for the blues witht the rolling conditions.  

We are canceled Tuesday  May 25 due    Wednesday AM & Thursday PM look best this week 


05/22/2021

Another Fine Day! Lots of Blues and Sea Bass. Lonnie won the pool with a surprise Cod

11/29/2020

Sunday concluded one of the nicest Thanksgiving weekends ever aboard the Queen Mary! Awesome weather, calm seas, warm temps and very good fishing all combined to make it an epic end to an amazing November of Striper Action.  Capt JB was aboard to fish with some of the Wednesday Gang who were aboard Sunday.  Jim Stieves had 9 Stripers and a few Blues.  Capt JB boated a nice 33" Striper early.  Bob Gieson had a well deserved smile on his face from the multiple Stripers and a couple Jumbo Blues he battled.  Stoney fishing in his corner quietly boated a bunch of Bass and a few Blues as well.  Sergio and his father Lor-eto fished the pulpit and kept busy most of the morning.  Action was very good early with Bass and lots of Big Blues.  9-11 we picked lots of Bass with some Blues and after 11am it slowed to a pick and to a crawl after noon.  Over all another fine day aboard 


11/28/2020

Super Action Again today! 
Lots of Stripers to 36" with most 25"-32" jigs again best.  Lots of Blues to 14 pounds too 


11/27/2020

Fantastic Action this morning!! 


11/25/2020

Very Good Action today after a slow day yesterday!  
Lots of 22-28" fish on jigs with a bunch 28-33" in the mix. Big Fish was 41" caught by Christian Misdary. Hi hook was over 20 fish.  We had plenty of Blues to 10 pounds in the mix as well. Have a happy Thanksgiving and see ya over the weekend.  We have walk up room Friday - Sunday 


11/24/2020

First Drift the sky was black with birds.  As I slide the boat into the rolling Stripers the readings were unbelievable.  Fish On! Unfortunately, the best drift of the day was the first one. Second drift,  we picked a few more. Then only scratched a fish here and there the rest of the day.  We found a few different area of fish but were all very hard to catch. The yo-yo continues let’s hope it’s going up tomorrow


11/23/2020

Did not fish bad forecast 


11/22/2020

Rough weather, no boat traffic and Bass were back to chewing a bit this AM.  We have walk up room all week! 6:30am departure time except Thanksgiving Day Bass Special 6am to 12noon.  See ya aboard


11/21/2020

Friday was Very Good but Saturday stunk! We did get some Bass & Blues but not nearly enough.  A few decent drifts was all we could manage.  Pic is  Brody Riback & Gino Simonetti both 11 with their catch 


11/19/2020

Thursday, very slow for the jigging fleet.  Fish everywhere rolling & splashing but not too many bites.  Some Bass & Blues but not nearly enough.  Dave Millroy with a 38" Striper to win pool.  The charter boats all switched to trolling and caught well.  Plenty of fish around just tough to catch today

Wednesday was rough as winds were North not West as predicted! We picked at Bass & Blues to 40+ inches.  Overall an ok day


11/17/2020

Basstastic today!

Early Boat Limit 

We released many Stripers over 40" today and hi-hook was over 15 bass and 8 blues. Great Action continues. Plenty of open spots for tomorrow Wednesday Nov 18. 

 


11/16/2020

Very Good early this AM!  We did very well until 9am.  We picked at Bass to 40+" until 11:30 then it was completely over.  We were a couple fish short of a full boat limit and tossed back lots of bonus size fish. 


11/14/2020

Slower today! We had a few ok drifts early then it stunk the rest of the day.  George had 8 for hi -hook but most had 2 or less.  Tough day. Sunday Nov 15 we will not sail due to rough conditions! 

 

 


11/13/2020

Steady Jig Action continues Tuesday thru Friday! Lots of mixed size Stripers to 40+"  red tube jigs seem best overall. 


11/11/2020

Another good Day! Best early for us and then a pick the rest of the day! 

 


11/10/2020

Another Good Day of Striper action! Today we had some Blues to 10 pounds mixed in with the Stripers to 42".  We had some limits today and many bass in the boat and released.  Red-tail jigs still seem to work the best over the past 10 days.  Hope to see ya aboard 

 


11/09/2020

Spectacular Action until noon today! A few fish short of a true boat limit of keeper and bonus size fish.  George Hamway & Ben both had 9 fir Hi-hook. We released a number of bonus size bass as well has some too large to retain.  Red-Tail diamonds still overall the best.  We are sold out except for Thursday this week.  


11/08/2020

Sunday, again spectacular weather treated the folks with warm temps and calm seas. Again lots of fish all over most of the day for customers to see rolling on the surface.  Most of the morning we were able to pick at the Stripers.  Ryan was hi hook with 5 


11/07/2020

Overall a slow day! Similar but better than Thursday with lots of fish all over.  Swirling, rolling and jumping made it frustrating for me and the customers.  Many did have a Striper and a few had 2 or 3 fish. Great day with wonderful weather and very nice folks aboard 


11/06/2020

Better Action Friday with Stripers to 46" and hi hook had 5. Jigs again best wirh A27 & 47 red-tail best 


11/05/2020

Tough day! Lots of fish around, rolling, splashing but not eating. We did manage to get a bunch but it was a grind 


11/04/2020

In a word, FANTASTIC!


11/04/2020

Simply Awesome again today! Epic Striper Jigging past few trips. Hi hook over a dozen and 49" was the pool winner 


11/01/2020

Fabulous couple of hours before the wind came up hard from the South. Pocono Dave Millroy was hi-hook with 6 fish to 42.5"Ken & Eric had 3 each, Little Colin,10 years old, had a 36" fish.  Michele boated a whopper. Frank Vivino with a bonus & keeper Bass limit.  Lots of fish all on jigs with red tail A-47's best today. Monday is canceled, hopefully we will be out Tuesday for the Marathon trip. Remember we are limited to low 30's so the boat is NEVER CROWED! Book online if you have a group you can call and leave a deposit to hold spots.   


10/31/2020

Nice Action on jigs this morning! After 2 days of Rain and Hard NE winds to 40MPH we usually catch very little.  The ocean calmed quickly and life was abundant early.  The boat traffic made it diffucult to maintain any momentum.  The many boats would trample the fish right away.  We got lucky a couple times as the fish were up close and I was able to get there before the mass of boats.  Other times, I read the fish away from the fleet and we had a nice drift.  We were never able to repeat a drift though.  A couple boats see our nets moving and BAM we were swarmed! We had quite a few larger fish and kept a handful of keepers all in jigs.  Again, red-tailed 27 or 47's worked best.  We had bites until 11am then it was all over.  We are getting booked up with the limited passenger counts so please book online.  Click the schedule page to see what is avaiable.  Hope to see ya aboard 


10/28/2020

SIMPLY A GREAT DAY! All Jumbo Stripers to 47" with the majority 36" to 46" caught on jigs.  Red Tail A-27 & 47's were the jig of choice today! The folks who caught the best were reeling medium/slow steady pace.  Richie "1000" was hi-hook with 11 Stripers to 46.5"  Jack Schocklin had 6 and Pete Z had 7 to 46 Stoney had 5+".  Best news of the day was the return of Bob Gieson who had been sidlined with a injury.  Bob G caught a few including the one almost 45".  Many had multiple Stripers but those who were lazy and bounced their jigs on the bottom all day had fun with the many dogfish paved along the bottom.  The Bass were rolling on top chasing sandeels and the readings were mid water.  I never understand why some folks insist on bouncing the bottom when clearly they were not on the bottom on this day?  We did have a dozen or so Bluefish mixed in today as well as a few keeper sea bass and one keeper blackfish. 


10/27/2020

Striper Time! 

Very Good today for Stripers up to 47" First real good action of the season.  Let's hope it's not a flash in the pan.  Jim Steel with 8 was hi hook and a few others boated and released 3-5 fish each.  Most were too big and had to be released but we did manage to keep a bunch.  


10/25/2020

Canceled on the dock this AM. Forecast for 10-15 was 20+ early this AM from the North.  That is maybe the worst sea we get. Rough and close together, Monday is canceled with more wind. Tuesday is Sold Out. Wednesday looks best 


10/24/2020

Tough day! Weather was great warm and calm but the bass were a no-show and then a hour run for blues only produced a handful. Terrible day of fishing 


10/23/2020

Did not sail Thursday or Friday 


10/21/2020

GREAT WAY TO END THE 2020 TUNA SEASON! 

Limit + of Bluefin Tuna to 44" and Yellowfin to 85 pounds. Hi -hook was Pete Ziemba jigged all day and ended up with 6 Bluefin to 42" and 1 nicer Yellowfin.  Caroline had a Bluefin and a Yellowfin and fought others.  Picked atthe Bluefin early and then 10:30 - 1pm we held fish with flat line bait fishing producing best.  Fun way to end it! 


10/20/2020

Striper Time! Today was our first Striper trip of the fall 2020 season and we found a few.  Fish on jigs and shads to 49".  Jack Schockling started us off with a 39" fish and shortly therafter Richie"1000" missed one.  A few casts later he was hooked up with a 44" fish.  A  few got away before a couple more to 49" realeased.  All big fish on jigs a better than expected start! 


10/19/2020

Awesome Offshore Whale & Dolphin Wathcing trip! Whales everywhere for over 3 hours Humpback, Minke & Fin whales rolling, slapping, even a full breach! Great Trip 


10/18/2020

Lots of action with Sea Bass but now getting tough to get keepers 


10/17/2020

Lots of West wind had us looking along the beach early. We saw life but all Albys and couldn't catch em.  About 11am the wind back off a bit and we anchored up and picked at Sea Bass and some Porgy.  Ok end to the day


10/15/2020

Stunk settled for some sea bass and porgy. The inshore tuna fishery was good early but terrible since Late Sept.  Offshore 60-70 mile area still doing well


10/14/2020

Very Nice Sea Bass Action!! Many had their limit of 10 today plus a few porgy in the mix 


10/13/2020

cancelled Monday & Tueday due to big storm 


10/11/2020

Best day of the season for larger Blues to pool winning 11 pounder. Many gaffers today, with fish averaging 5/8 pounds.  Hope to see ya aboard Wednesday!  Monday very Rough and Tuesday calming. Wednesday looks nice! 


10/10/2020

lots of South wind kept us in tight where there was enough west in the 20-30 that is was comfortabe enough to fish.  We picked at small weakfish getting some keepers along with tiny Blues and some small Bonito.  When you are given lemons you make lemonade! Sunday I hope to be able to get off the beach again before the Easterly kicks in.  Monday is a NO GO and Tuesday the same 


10/09/2020

Friday's special trip provided lots of action/variety: Lots of Sea Bass, Porgy, Blues with Alby & a few Bluefin Tuna!  Tom Olsen has a bucket of Large Porgies and Sea Bass.  We jigged lots of Blues early before the sun was up and had a nice shot of Porgies as well before the sun was high.  The surprise was the reappearance of Albies and a few School Bluefin Tuna.  Nice mixed bag today.  


10/07/2020

Wednesday provided nice action for a blues with an early boat limit giving us the ability to get in before the Gale force winds kicked in 

  
Tuesday's Bonito/Alby special was anything but special!  We did bail out with a nice catch of Blues to 10 pounds in the afternoon 


10/03/2020

After very good action for Blues on Friday, Saturday was poor.  We did pick at  Blues the first hour and again late in the day.  10-12 was pretty poor with only a couple dozen boated in that time.  The few regulars aboard did OK have 5-12 each.  A large Bonito won the pool.  Lets hope Sunday is a bit better.  


10/02/2020

What a difference a day makes! Fast Action on jigs with Blues in the 2-3 pound class.  The pool winner was 4 pounds and Hi- Hook Jim & Jack had over 40 Blues.  Smaller jigs A17 & 27's worked best tail or plain made no difference. We also, saw 3 different whales on the way home this afternoon!  Weather looking very nice for this weekend and have plenty of open spots available! Come on Down 


10/01/2020

No Good today! Terrible tide up into the wind making for rough conditions.  The end result was stinko! 


09/30/2020

No Sail too Rough 


09/29/2020

Great way to finalize our 2020 Tuna trips!  We had good catches on all trips this season. That in itself is a miracle! Today we picked well from 9:30am-11am holding 1-3 fish on mainly on bait. We started off quick as the sun was rising we had 3 on within 1/2 hour of starting and boated all three. The ration went downhill fast from there though. Boated another 10 of 25 then late in the day had another shot boating 3 of 10.  All nicer yellowfin to 80 pounds.  George Hamway & Ed Kelly both boated 2 each and many had one.  Those who struck out were lucky enough as George and Kyle were kind enough to make sure all who didn't get one went home with a good chunk 


09/28/2020

Monday sucked! Was supposed to be calm nice day NOPE.  We did muster up a half assed catch of Blues. Jim & Stoney has their limits but most had 1-3 fish. The good positive spin is we had some of the bigger Blues of the year 


09/27/2020

Good action for Blues later in the day.  Early was a slow pick but after 10:30 the action picked up and ended up steady the last hour.  End up good with Blues to 8 pounds 


09/26/2020

The Ultimate Pool App Charter went well! Jigging was steady with hi-hook close to 20 Blues to 8 pounds.  Rocky had his limit before 10:30 and had a larger 10 pound model in the mix.  Lots of fun had by all especially little Jackson, 9, from Pt Pleasant Beach who battled a bunch and boated 4.  


09/25/2020

Mike Lynch's group had very nice action for Blues to 10 pounds! All jigs and just a gorgeous day!! 


09/24/2020

Poked around out as far as 35 miles.  We had 1-4 Alby almost anyplace I went along with a han full of Mahi and 30 Blues 


09/23/2020

After 5 days of hard NE and rough conditions. Wednesday produced Ok Action for Blues to 7 pounds all on jigs! We caught more than I truely expected after such a long blow. We capture one Alby and conditions look very favorable for us to look around Thursday into the weekend.  


09/16/2020

Wednesday produced excellent action on jigs for Blues to 10 pounds!  Many folks had thier limits before 9am and tossed back fish for a while 


09/14/2020

Plenty of Action today but the shap anglers definitely had the advantage once the sun got high in the sky. Lots of Blues to 9 pounds kept folks busy thru the morning.  The Albys were active around the boat until 9. Then it was mainly the sharpies who were consistently scoring.  George, Dr Aron, Andrew and Ryan put on a clinic in the stern. Epoxy jigs, 5" Split tails and 80G streamers along with 2.5oz Mac Daddy lures all worked well.  


09/13/2020

We did not sail Friday or Saturday due to NE winds and rough conditions. Sunday calmed but nothing like the forecast had predicted. The Blues were flying fast as soon as I blew the horn and the fast paced jigging for Blues to 8 pounds continued until 11am. When the tide slowed the action was still a pick.  Many folks had their limits before 9am and had fun catching and releasing quality sized Blues  

 


09/10/2020

The Special Bonito Alby trips wasnt so special! We did have action early with lot of Macks with Alby mixed in and some Spanish too.  I went searching an did find some more Alby but not thick enough for all to catch.  The real sharp guys had a bunch but the niovices had a hard time.  Turned out to be a nice day with calm seas and very little rain after 8am.  George had 6 six Alby tons of Mack and a couple Blues.  


09/09/2020

We had Ivan Zimmerman's group aboard for their fiorst Tuna experience.  Started off quick with a 55 pounder jigged by George Hamway.  When the sun came up the Skipjack tuna swarmed us.  Getting a bait thru the skipjack was tough.  We had a little flurry and boated 2 more out of 8-9 hookups.  The nskipjack got even worse so we made a 2 mile move and found more chich birds and read lots of bait and some fish.  Instant FISH ON! Giant False Albacore for most with a couple real ones hooked up within minutes.  Pete Ziemba jigged a nicer 75 pound fish and the guys in Ivan's group held 1-3 on for the next couple hours.  When the dust cleared the guys were shot and a dozen tuna out of almost 30 hooked up were in the boat.  The fish were mostly in the 60-80 pound class and we lost a few bigger fish with less than 30' to go.  The bigger yellowfin are tough on the newbies to handle, but the guys did their best and learned alot.  Another Successful Tuna trip for the QM Crew! 


09/08/2020

Monday we found some bigger Blues late and Tuesday we built on that with a nice catch of larger Blues on jigs to 10 pounds.  Nick won the pool with a true gaffer. Plain & tailed jigs both worked well. 


09/05/2020

Friday we had Steady Action all day! Nicer Fish to 8 pounds with most 4-5 pounds.  Saturday the action was slow most of the morning but picked up a bit after 11 and many had a few. Ken & Marian Fuchs Combined for over 30 with a few nice Porgy mixed in. Those who could turn the handles ended with a nice catch 


08/29/2020

Bouncy but clear until 11AM when the skies opened up! We picked at Blues well with a couple Bonito mixed in. 


08/28/2020

Another fine day! Blues, Bonito, Alby and many Spanish Macks too!


08/27/2020

Super Start to the Special Bonito, Alby Exotics trips today

We departed early and it really did pay off!  We were on the grounds as the sun was rising and it was ON! Lots of Bonito, Alby with Spanish early.  After 10am the Blues were tough to fight off but we picked Bonito all day.  Hi-hook had 8 Bonito a handfull of Alby a couple Spanish and all the Blues George could reel.  A few surprises along the way too: Cobia(released) and some Jumbo Blue Runners, Great Action Continues!! 


08/25/2020

Another Great Tuna Trip! More on bait vs jig today for Yellowfin up to 75 pounds! Frank Vivino had a limit of three before 9am! George who has been snake bit the past 2 trips watching folks all around him catch.  This trip he got the monley off his back early wioth a nice fish 75-80 pounds on bait and later had another quality fish on a jig.  I jigged 2 a smaller one and a larger one.  Lots of bites and many boated! Excellent 2020 fishing!  


08/24/2020

Lot of Variety again!! Blues, Sea Bass, Bonito, Alby, King Mackerel and a few School Tuna to 35 pounds. Overall the slowest day in a while but still a good day!  Lost a few tuna boated a few that were short and got one nice one for Lou who was aboard with his daughter. Many folks had a limit of Blues before we headed for the Alby & Tuna 


08/23/2020

08/18/2020

Another Success! The tuna cooperated later in the day this past Tuesday making up for a tough morning where we boated only 1 of the first 7 fish hooked up! We made a small move and the ratio of hookups ot landed went up!  Some bites on the jigs but many on the bait.  Pete Ziemba showed them all that jigging pays off as he hooked 4 fish and landed 3 for his yellowfin limit to 80 pounds and won the pool.  Great Trip again! Sept 15 Tuna trip has a few open spots left. 


08/16/2020

Another Great Acton week aboard the Queen! Tons of Macks to bend the rods most everyplace we went this week. Early most days we would get a few shots at the Blues some days up to 60-80 Blues mixed in for the day along with some Bonito, Spanish and usually a limit of Sea Bass for the Boat.  Saturday & Sunday were Rough so we did not sail, Monday morning not looking to promising either. See ya aboard Wedneday into next weekend looking nice

08/06/2020

Wednesday & Thursday produced lots of action all day! All the Macks you wanted with a few Blues mixed in to start and then a limit of Sea Bass to spice the catch.  Excellent especially right after a huge storm.  Pic is of Nick with a double header of big Sea Bass and the larger of the 2 won the pool 


08/02/2020

Rough and got rougher soon after we started to fish COCKOLA was our catch today.  We had a blast of Macks early but drifting was getting tough.  We tried to search out some Blues but the seas kept building and made that very difficult.  We are canceled Monday & Tuesday, Wednesday may be canceled as well. If planning to fish look to Thursday & Friday this week


08/01/2020

What a AWESOME DAY! I know its gonna be awhile till we get another one though.  We had an excellent start with lots of Blues early and a few nicer Bonito and couple Spanish Mackerel too. The blues backed off and the Chub Macks came on and we left the area looking.  Found lots of Chubs on another couple of spots and the sea bass didnt want to cooperate too well, so we rounded back and the Blues bite well to end the day.  Maybe the nicest day calm wise in weeks! Unfortunately, this is not gonna last and the rough weather looks to be upon us for the Sunday into mid week. May have to cancel some trips? 


07/30/2020

Another fine day of cathcing Blues & Macks! Pool winner was Blue about 4.5pound  lots of action

07/24/2020

FAST ACTION! Could not be hampered by the rain.  WIld Blues and Macks to start the mroning as no matter what you tossed in was gobbled up! My father, Charles, made his first trip of the season. He said it wasnt fishing, it was Catching today! . An old friend, Maury, was in town with his kids. They picked a great day to intoduce his boys to ocean fishing. They didnt have time to figure out how to use this equipment.  Their jigs hit the bottom and wham FISH ON! They all lost count of how many in the first hour.  Later in the day we skipped offshore a little and found a nice patch of Sea Bass.    FUN DAY


07/23/2020

Fast Action continues! 

Limit of Blues early with Sea Bass & Fluke late 

Another Fun Day! 


07/21/2020

Special Tuna Charter Monday went great!

07/21/2020

Another early Boat limit of Blues to 3 pounds Tuesday morning! Rest of the day we picked at Sea Bass and Fluke. Great Action continues 


07/20/2020

Weekend was more of the same! Limits of Blues early a Bonito or two in the mix with a Spanish Mackerel too once in a while too.  We generally finish up the day with Sea Bass 


07/16/2020

Another BLOWN CALM forecast! Se 5-10 was 15-20 most of the day.   WTF weather people! All that techology and you generally suck.  I swear the daily stuff was more accurate when i was a kid listnening to a special weather radio for the marine forecast.  Despite the rocking and rolling the Blues were flying early and a quick boat limit was achieved before 8:15am.  NOAA/NMFS say the Bluefish stocks are decimated.  Ask a local Capt who fishes for Bluefish they will tell you their science is flawed as we see plenty! Overall we had a great catch of Blues, Mackerel, Sea Bass and some Fluke.  A nice mixed bag and lots of action The BIg Fluke won the pool! 

 


07/15/2020

Wednesday started out unexpectably rough! Weather man predicted a calm day and it certainly want not! we made the best of it and anchored up early and many got a Sea Bass Limit and we picked a few mackerel and a couple Bluefish.  Whene the wind backed off a touch I ran about 10 miles to the Bluefish area and we picked away the rest of the day and had a boat limit of Blues plus some Bonito.  Richie"1000" won the Pool with a nice Bonito! 


07/14/2020

Fantastic! Limit of 27" - 44" fish before 6:15AM.  Released a bunch! Just a wonderful day with jig working best!

 


07/12/2020

Nice Day on the water! After a  Big Blow we usually struggle for a few days.  When we arrived on scene where we left the Blues biting Thursday, it didnt take long to start picking away.  Between 8-9:30 we had steady action with Blues to 3 pounds with most 1 pound.  Plain A-17 diamond jigs were best.  After the boat had a Bluefish Limit we went and hit a few spots for Sea Bass.   Many had their Sea Bass limit too!  A nice Fluke won todays pool.    The afternoon trip was hampered by the summer southerly which came up much later than normal today.  


07/11/2020

NO SAIL FRIDAY & SATURDAY


07/09/2020

Another day with limits of small Bluefish mixed with some Spanish Mackerel. Then a switch up to Sea Bass polished the coolers with limits of Sea Bass 

 


07/08/2020

Back on the inshore front today! Limit of Blues & Sea Bass with a fewaFluke too.  Very nice day


07/07/2020

FIRST TUNA TRIP A SUCCESS!!! 

FOGGY AND BOUNCY put up in the 2 strike against us mode.  Put the side trackers out found some life and trolled up all the fish.  We jigged on readings and never had a touch excpet for one JUMBO BLUEFISH caught by Lou Fama.  Once we realized the jigs and bait were not gonna work we would get right back up on the troll and soon after BAM, another one on! GOOD TRIP.  Hopefully we can jig em next time 


07/06/2020

07/02/2020

Thursday & Friday produced solid Action for 1-3 pound Blues along with Bonito & Macks in the mix.  Both days we made quick boat limits of Blues and then finished up with nice sea bass action.

Another Fine Day aboard!! Lots of Blues to 5 pounds plus a few surprises.  Nice Striper won the pool along with keeper Cod and Bonito


06/25/2020

Jack Dyane had his annual kids and friends trip this morning.  Hands down the calmest day of the season to date.  Though not full throttle like yesterday the Blues cooperated well for a group of mainly all novices. Once they got the hang of turning the handles to move the jigs fast enough we picked and plucked and had plenty by 11:30am.  Grab your spinner w/20-30 pound test and come on down!! We only have room this weekend on Saturday afternoons 3pm to 8pm trip.  Please book online! 


06/24/2020

Very Good Action today for Blues up to 6 pounds!  Jim Stieves has his limit before 9:30am and tossed back over 15 more.  The smaller A-17 & 27 plain jigs worked best but most all jigs caught fish today.  The Wednesday gang all had limits of Blues and tossed back many.  Ava, 13, from Quakertown PA, had 7 Blues  not bad for her first deep sea trip.  


06/23/2020

Monday provided Hot and Fast Action with 1-4 pound blues leading to a quick Boat Limit of Blues before 9:30am.  The blues slowed up shortly after so we hit a couple of wrecks and picked at tasty Ling the rest of the day. 


06/22/2020

The day started off well with a few good cracks at the Blues to 4 pounds.  Some had limits of Blues before 8:15AM!  The Sea Bass jig bite was on most of the moring and many customers had their limit or were close by 10:30.  The tide started to run and the fishing slowed to a halt come 11:30am.  The rest of the day plus the afternoon just plain stunk.  Now that Sea Bass season is closed we will concentrate on Blues & Bonito as well as Ling and other local species 


06/21/2020

HAPPY FATHERS DAY

Great Sea Bass Action this morning! Lots of quality fish and the jigs worked best. The Ketchum Family chartered the boat and had a blast! The small group picked up the jigging quick and put together a boat limit of Sea Bass by 11:00AM.  With the rain and fog still hanging on they opted for an early return after filling the coolers. 


06/17/2020

Still bouncy with the NE winds since Sunday.  The Blues were all over the river when I was leaving this morning.  We drifted the river until 9:30 picking at the Blues on jigs and SP minnow top water plugs.  Ended up with over 100 Blues to our largest Bluefish of the season, an 8 pounder won the pool.  The ocean never really calmed but we bounced our way off the beach and picked a little at the sea bass.  Jim Stieves has over a dozen Blues along with a few Sea Bass.

Sunday was Tough, Windy & Rough!  We did pick at fish slow ans Bert was Hi-hook with 8 keeper Sea Bass and released a couple nice Tog.  Marion pictured here caught all the keepers for Ken to show off below.  A fat king won the pool in the morning. Weather calmed early afternoon giving way to a nice afternoon and better action for our 3-8 afternoon trip

Saturday we had David Macko and friends aboard! Westher was perfect and the action bounced back well. The group had fun and a cooler full of keeper Sea Bass! Very Good Day! 


06/12/2020

Gorgeous Day on the water, maybe the nicest day of the year so far!  Fishing was not as good as the weather.  We  picked a dozen Blues early before heading off to the bottom fish grounds.  We picked and plucked but there was no real pace to it.

Monday & Tuesday produces nice catches of Sea Bass with limits of Sea Bass for many.  Good quality sized Sea Bass are still in the mix but the ratio is getting a little tougher.  The action has been pretty darn steady for weeks except for a couple off days. Blues have been around since Sunday when we had a couple good hours of jigging 2-4 pound Blues. 


06/07/2020

This weekend saw variety: Sea Bass, Ling, Blues, Mackerel & Striped Bass   Sunday we had our first real action with Blues on jigs to 4 pounds   Many limits and Hi-hook had over 15 Bluefish.  When the wind calmed we left the blues and picked nicely with the Sea Bass  Saturday was great early for quality sea bass, some Ling and many mackerel. After 10am the savage bite slowed dramatically.  The afternoon trip produced very well for Sea Bass and Ling.  Overall, the fishing continues very good


06/05/2020

Just a pick today. We did manage to put a catch together but much slower than I have been used to. Chuck Noona won the pool with one of his 7 keeper Sea Bass. Nick & his daughter Diane had a nice catch too. Let's hope it bounces back tomorrow!  Next trips with availability are Monday & Tuesday 


06/04/2020

Sea Bass action was slow early and very good late this morning! The afternoon was similar.  In the end a fine catch was put together.  The warmer weather has things changing.  Seems like more Blues are filtering into the area.  Stripers are showing in the bunker schools past few days and I have read Stripers a bunch this week. I jumped out with Cole on our little boat earlier this week and had a fun evening.  I have added some Magic Hour trips June 10, 11, 15 & 18

Today was the up day! The Action was better as we picked at slot sized fish to 27" along with many shorts tossed back.  Still not crazy action but for Striper fishing acceptable.  I always want more but beggars can't be choosers.  We had a number of JUMBO BONITO mixed in today as well.  Lou DiAngelo had a big Bonito, a slot Striper and a few shorts tossed back. Friday is a NO SAIL. THE WEEKEND LOOKS CALM WITH Sunday the warmer day

10/30/2019

Started off promising! Fish swirling and marked plenty of fish. First few drifts produced some Bass to 46" along with some Albies and a Big Bonito.   Unfortunately, it was all over by 10:30☹️☹️☹️.  We managed only a couple more fish all day after that 


10/29/2019

Good Day! Nice start for the Marathon Trips! Jim Steel missed 3 and boated 2, Ray was hi-hook boating 3 to 47" all on jigs with the green-tail 47 the best again. Gold Diamond did catch a couple as well as Gold Kroc  


10/26/2019

 
Well, we did get more bites than Friday! Actually we saw lots of fish at times this morning on top splashing around but the bites were few and far between. For what I saw, it could have been a very good day if they were on the feed. The fish boated were very large, Rich won the pool with a 48" fish beating out a 46.5" fish.  We lost more than we caught. Sunday is a NO GO BLOWOUT! Monday is a private event. Tuesday is our first Marathon trip, it’s OPEN BOAT, departs 6:30am and return late afternoon. Weather right now looks calm for Tuesday. Hope to see ya aboard

10/21/2019

Overall was a tough weekend for us. A few Blues, some Albies and Bones plus some Sea Bass too.  The highlight was Billy from Philly's surprise Tuna at the whistle Subday afternoon.  Great fish Bill 


10/15/2019

The Final Bonito/Alby special wasn't so special.  We did cover the board and have excellent action for Mackerel and lots of small Blues to keep busy. Some Bonito and a more Albies were picked early and one Alby here and there along with many Macks after 11am. Overall good action but more Bonito & Alby woukd have made it even better. NO SAIL WEDNESDAY - FRIDAY. WEEKEND IS LOOKING FABULOUS: Sunshine, calm and nice temps 


10/14/2019

Monday was back to nice action!  Good mix of Small Blues with Bonito, Alby, Sea Bass & Porgy mixed in!  Hope to see ya for your last shot at Bonito & Alby tomorrow 6am leave.  Usually the mid October blow we are supposed to get this Wed -  Friday pushes these fish out of here. Hope to see ya aboard 


10/13/2019

With a week of terrible weather forecasted we took advantage of the crap weather situation.  Knowing we would loose the whole week with rough sea the plan was get the bottom refreshed and knock off a couple projects early.  I want to thank the crew for ajob well done.  Cleaning puke is better than sanding, scraping, walking around scketchy scaffolding and painting.  Needless to say, its work that if I could pay double, I would gladly drop the boat off, and walk away.  Unfortunately, somehow,  its more than 10X the amount! So again, I thanks the crew for helping me in the effort to keep the Queen Mary looking nice! 

Pic 1 Monday we brought boat to the yard before the hard Southerly kicked in.  

Tuesday- Thursday 

The crew and myself put a few long days in getting the topside projects completed! Tuesday was VERY LONG day prepping the inside of the waist.  There is nothing wasy about this on the new boat.  There are all sorts of nooks and crannies to get around. Whoever designed this was not thinking about painting this or having to clean it everyday.  The Hull wasnt as hard but took all day and into the late evening to get ready for some filling and fairing before painting.  Wednesday and Thursday we painted 

Friday: 

We launched got her ready to sail and waited for the wind to subside to bring back to the dock


10/05/2019

Well we have been waiting for the after labor day weather to begin and here it is and lots of crap weather to come!  We lost Tuesday, Thursday & Friday last week.  Saturday, with the NE wind supposed to ease late in morning, so we departed an hour late.  The moved worked out well as the first couple hours were rough but the last few were much nicer and the fish bit well late!  The last hour provided very good action making the day a good one.  Sunday on the other hand the wind was up way earlier than predicted and just kept getting harder.  Sunday the fishing sucked! We had 20 Blues and 2 Porgy before beating our way home in the hard Southerly.  This whole week the seas look rough! Monday is a NO SAIL


10/01/2019

Monday we much rougher than predicted and made fishing almost impossible until late morning.  Once we could drift many rallied and we picked away at the Blues! George Hamway was Hi-Hook with a dozen Blues and a few Porgys.  Bob Gieson had 10+, Stoney threw a bunch ovr the rail  as well.  Ben hada bunch of Blues as well as an Alby.  Tuesday we did not sail.  Wednesday will be nice and the only nice day until this weekend.  I hope to see ya aboard Tomorrow Wedensday


09/29/2019

Picked early, slow in the middle and Very Good the last hour! Was planning on fishing a bit longer than usual until a errant cast landed and stuck in a deckhands head! So in we went and after 1/2 hour at the ER the hook was out and Cole still has some brain cells left. Overall it ended up being a nice day and a good catch. Weather should be good for Monday. See ya aboard

 


09/28/2019

Lots of Albys with some Bonito and a few Spanish in the mix! The Blues were gone but the action was steady on pink lures.  Pink Daddy Mac and epoxy jigs were best Saturday.  


09/27/2019

A gorgeous day and the  light crowd experienced a wonderful action with lot of ALby and Blues along with Bonito & Spanish Mackerel.  


09/26/2019

Lots of Action today with everything on the menu! The next 2 Thursdays are special Bonito/Alby/School Bluefin trips. Rough conditions made fishing the light soft plastic stuff nearly impossible. I have to believe if we could have used the Tsunami Split tails we would have had even more Bonito & other exotics. Weather looks SUPER Friday into the weekend. I will head to the same area tomorrow for our Daily 7:30am trip. Hope to see ya aboard

 


09/25/2019

Gorgeous Day after a very rough Tuesday! The Blues were there but tough to catch.  Maybe the worst day in 6 weeks! We did have a hi-hook with 10 Blues and others had 4-6 Blues but many didnt. Whereever I seemed to go today the big Sea Bass (not in season) seemed to be hungry but that doesnt help when they all go back.  Nordy, had  5 Blues a bunch of Sea Bass and 2 Alby so those who turned the handles had a catch.  Weather looks nice thru the weekend.  Hope to see ya aboard 


09/24/2019

Tuesday the weather forecast was a bit off and the conditions were basically unfishable most of the day.  We did manage a dozen or so Mahi to make something out of nothing.  The report was ROUGH


09/23/2019

Monday was a tale of two halves! Morning, we picked the occasional fish most drifts.  The area seemed dead compared to what had been going on most days the past few weeks. Satu & Sunday got better and better as the day went along.  Around 11:30am all of a sudden bait was all over and whales began going crazy.  The next few driftswe began to pick blues steady.  Around noon, Blues were on top.  Jigs & top water plugs worked well.  The last hour we held multiple fish on with shots of 4-6 on at a time. Ended up being a very nice and productive day! Bob Gieson & 'Big Game Jack held their own but neither could catch Stony who somehow put on a clinic.   Plain and green tailed 27's worked equally well this afternoon.  We head off for Tuna/Mahi @ 3am tonight for Tuesday.  Wednesday 7:30am departure and Thursday is our Bonito, Alby, Mahi inshore special 6am departure.  Weather looks good for all so SEE YA ABOARD 


09/22/2019

Another fine day of jigging Blues with many dinner plate sized porgy mixed in! Lots of Whales in the area to make the day interesting too.  Saw a whale full breach 3 times today.  Weather looks ok for Monday.  Tuesday we are offshore for Tuna/ Mahi with 4 open spots.  Wednesday's weather looks maybe best of week, normal 7:30am departure.  Thursday is another 6am Special Bonito / Albacore special.  Finally, Friday thru the weekend is our normal 7:30am to 2pm daily Blues with other local species trip.  See ya aboard! 


09/21/2019

FANTASTIC ACTION! Blues to 10 pounds 

Hi hook had over 30


09/20/2019

We jigged some nice Blues late in the day on our way in.


05/21/2019

Tuesday May 21

The predicted Northwest winds 10-15 was a steady 20-25 all day and from the North.  Fishing again was tough most of the day.  Too Rough to look around where I caught some Sunday and read many on Monday.  I anchored up around 11am and we picked at the Sea Bass mainly shorts before heading back to the inlet to hope for some Blues on the outgoing tide.  The move paid off with us picking some Blues to end the day.  Weather Wednesday supposed to very nice! Hope to see ya aboard 


05/20/2019

Monday 05/20

Another tough day.  We read the fish but couldnt get them to bite! Picked at the Sea Bass late.  Lets hope the NW wind tomorrow gets them going

 


05/19/2019

 

Sunday May 19

Better today!   Found an area of Stripers but they had lockjaw! We did manage to get some bites and boat a handful to 30+ pounds!  9” white shads and the 6oz diamonds are what got the bites. I spent another couple hours searching in the area in hopes we could get another shot an them but only managed one more nice Striper! Ken & Marion using 9" white shads with 4oz. heads both had a nice fish.  The other bites were on Diamond Jigs.  WE finished the day jigging some Sea Bass and a couple Blues.  Overall not good enough but better, so heading in the right direction anyway.  Weather: Monday not so great, Tueday & Wednesday Best late week could be nice too but too far away to really tell 

 


05/18/2019

Saturday May 18 

Always want to know how the fish know to turn off when we have a nice crowd aboard? Finally a real nice weekend day, lots of folks around and fishing was slow. Again a handful of Blues with a sprinkling of Sea Bass. Beautiful day at least.  Sunday looks nice too. See ya Aboard 


05/17/2019

May 4th

A very nice day made better with a nice shot of Stripers late in the day!  We had a few nice shots and picked at Striped Bass to 25 pounds. Large Shads worked best but smaller shads and jigs produced as well.  Was a very nice surprise after all the bad reports the past couple weeks.  We will NOT sail Sunday due to the rough conditions forecast.  Monday and most of the coming week looks nice.  See ya aboard Monday.  


04/25/2019

Gorgeous Day on the water and great to see the regular customers who showed up for what they knew would probably be a boat ride.  Unfortunately, it was a boat ride with a couple Boston Mackerel to show for the effort.  We will try again Saturday.  See ya aboard 

 


12/04/2018

MONDAY was our last day of the season! We had good action at times and many had a bunch of Stripers.  Mary was Hi-Hook with 8 Stripers.  Today we brought the boat to the boat yard to for yearly maintanence.  We plan to start the 2019 season late April or when the Stripers & Blues show up! 

Happy Holidays!  


11/29/2018

Small group today enjoyed some decent action early.  We picked at a mix of Keepers to Short size fish early and late.  Weather looks good next couple days if you look at the hourly forecasts both Friday & Saturday will be dry most of the day.  Fishing will not be afftected by the rain either day.  Sunday the timeline looks like maybe we see a drop very early but probably all the rain will be before the sun comes up.  Sunday overall will be nice with warm temps into the 60's on Sunday.  Hope to see you aboard 


11/25/2018

Great weather once the Giant Swell left over from the storm last night subsided.  Sunshine temps around 55 and a nice sea after 10am.  Fishing never got going and action was slow all day.  We did have one ok drift picking at short Stripers and loosing a keeper at the net. Otherwise we caught a few the rest of the day.  Weather looks tough for Monday, so NO SAIL Monday.  


11/24/2018

 

Another good day with lots of action! Many short fish were released, high hook had over 10 fish. Rich & Andrew Ehala had wonderful day, combining for 17 Stripers to 25”. Tom won the pool with a 29” fish had a slot and released a bunch. Sunshine with temps in the mid 50’s and Westerly winds should make for a very nice Sunday! See ya aboard

 


11/23/2018

The weather warmed up a bit and the fishing did too! Lots of keeper and slot size Stripers to go along many short bass. A bunch of limits were achieved. Pool winner was 36” fish caught by Luke 12 years old pictured below. Matt also pictured with 2 fish, had his limit early and totaled 5 fish to 18 pounds. All jigs again with chrome A-47 & 67 jigs working best. Weather warms into the 50’s tomorrow and will be a nice day until late in the afternoon. The rain will not bother you until almost dark Saturday. Sunday looks to be the last real NICE DAY of the year. Sunday forecast is for calm seas plus temps in the mid 50’s and abundant SUNSHINE. Remember we will fish thru next Sunday Dec 2 this season. Fishing is very good so COME ON DOWN!!

11/17/2018

We found lots of shorts with a few slots and more than a handful of larger fish to keep. All Stripers, all taken on diamond jigs and Mac Daddy lures, some on deadly dicks. Weather looks SUPER FOR SUNDAY & Monday. See ya aboard

11/09/2018

11/07/2018

 
Nice Catch of Stripers today! Not much went on for most but we had a few drifts that produced all QUALITY Stripers to John Fuss’s pool winning 42 pounder. Better to be lucky than good some days LOL! All fish were caught on metal, mainly the hammered 47's with and without a tail, except one on a Big Chartreuse Shad. We lost a bunch too. Thursday is HANDS DOWN Best Weather of the week! Friday looks like another Blow. The weekend looks ok for Saturday and better Sunday. Hope to see ya aboard

10/30/2018

Long Day, fishing sucked, but there were good signs.  Tons of bait, at times very good bird life and I did read some fish here and there.  Trollers all did get some but the jigging boats had it tough.  The Golden Eagle did get 3 nice Stripers late so maybe we get lucky tomorrow.  Weather looks Fantastic for Wednesday and Nice for Thursday too.  Hope to see ya Aboard

 

 

 


10/27/2018

Friday was full of variety! Blues, Alby, Bonito, Porgy & Sea Bass

We will not sail this weekend due to the strong Noreaster Saturday and Sunday will be leftover seas to calm for next week.

 The whole week is looking promising and weather for Tuesday's Striper Marathon looks very good right now 


10/23/2018

Our last tuna trip was a bust.  Looked very fishy early though.  Before the sun was up the bait was thick and the crew was able to catch many Anchovies & small mackerel.  With tons of bait I thought our chances were very good.  Guess NOT! We did get some Albys.  Weekend looking like a blowout, so come tomorrow or Friday.  Friday looks to be the nicest day of the week.  


10/22/2018

Weekend was OK Saturday and very tough on Sunday.  Saturday we had Albys and lots of Blues late ending up being a nice day.  Sunday the wind came on and never backed off but only grew harder and harder.  Monday we had no particpation.  Tuesday we are Inshore Tuna 4am departure.  Thursday we are privately chartered   Wednesday, Friday, Sat & Sunday is regular 7:30am to 2:30pm


10/19/2018

We did not sail Wednesdy or Thursday due to gale force winds


10/16/2018

Had a very nice group of guys aboard today! Milwaukee Tool, Rustoleum, Grainer & Cool Breeze sponsered the trip.  We departed around 8:30am hoping the wind would back off as predicted and around 11am the wind did begin to drop, by noon it was nice.  Blues and Porgies bent the rods and kept all the folks busy.  Great Day! Wind is gonna honk Wednesday so NO SAIL Wednesday.  Thursday not much better.  Friday is the next NICE DAY. Plan on Friday if you want to fish this week.  Sunday best if your thinking this weekend


10/15/2018

Monday, back to crap conditions after a flat calm day on Sunday. We had lots of 3-5 pound Blues before the sun came up. Those who wanted Bluefish easily had their limits before the sun came up. Once the sun was up the sea bass and porgies bit. The seas built quickly mid morning and after a couple of the right ones hooked up and lost. We headed for home before the sea became too crazy. We read fish and lost a couple. Let’s hope weather provides for next Tuesday’s final Tuna Trip.Open boat 7:30am departure the rest of the week. Thursday & Friday looking better than Wednesday. We are privately chartered tomorrow,Tuesday. 


10/14/2018

 

What a difference a day makes! The wind flopped out last night and seas were calm. A variety of fish came out to play today. Blues, Bonito, Albacore, sea bass, Porgy plus a nice 43 pound Tuna!

The weatherman gave it to us good today! Very Rough Conditions made it slow going and uncomfortable for many. We anchored up and I was pleasantly surprised! Hands Down the best Alby bite of the season so far. The first 2 hours we had blasts at the Albys, small Blues as well as plenty of sea bass. Overall a good fishing. We had lots of Keeper Sea Bass plus 3 Big King Mackerel.   Wednesday looks very nice and maybe the only nice day this week


10/07/2018

 
Very Nice Action all day today. The calm seas promised all weekend seem to be a weatherman myth, but the fish don’t mind! Lots of mixed sized Blues to 7 pounds, larger fish late and smaller fish all morning. We had a good number of Bonito mixed in along with Mack’s too. Weather looks ok for tomorrow.

Saturday was slower action for Blues.  We did pick at fish early but it slowed up to a stand still late morning.  I took a ride and found an area of smaller 1-3 pound Blues and we picked at them for a while and got in late.  Ken Fuchs was Hi- hook with over his limit of 15 Blues.  a few limits were had but most had a few to over a handful of Blues with some Macks, Porgy and a couple Albys too.  Weather looking better for Sunday & Monday, hope to see you aboard 


10/04/2018

Success!! Great Day and a little luck turned into a wonderful trip. Please, a crew members personal custom conventional rods w/ an Okuma 4/0 reel walked off the boat. If someone grabbed by accident please give a call. We boated a bunch of yellowfin tuna to 50 pounds mainly on bait but some on jigs. We lost more than we boated. Plus, we had some shots at Mahi-Mahi including a few real slammer Mahi-Mahi’s. Tomorrow’s Bluefish Trip IS CANCELED due to forecasted rough sea conditions. However, the WEEKEND is looking SUPER. COME ON DOWN!! Bluefish to 8 pounds has been good all week with some Bonito, Alby & Porgy in the mix. Next Tuesdays Tuna trip currently has 8 open spots left.

 


10/03/2018

Very nice action today Early & Late for Blues to 7 pounds plus a few big Bonito and Porgy mixed in.  Very Nice Day!  Remember weare Tuna fishing Thursday and back at the Blues Friday thru Monday 7:30am departures.  Weekend looking very nice 


10/01/2018

SUPER Jigging for Blues up to 8 pounds! WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES! Sunday stunk after great action Saturday.  Monday wasnt as hot as Saturday but it was darn good! Mike Popchak drove up from Maryland and it was worth the drive! He had well over his limit of 15 keeping some and releasing others.  Stoney even had a whole bunch! Tuna trip for tomorrow is canceled and moved to this Thursday when the weather looks better to get offshore.  We do have 8 open spots for Thursday Tuna trip departing midnight and returning late afternoon $200 per person 


09/30/2018

Wow, what a difference a day makes! Ususally this is a positive thing but not today.  Yesteraday was old time Bluefishing today not so much.  We did pick fish but far from good.  Read lots of fish but the gill net boats wrapped the whole area we fished Saturday.  This spooks the fish and they do not bite.  Lets hope tomorrow is a different story.  Weather looking nice again for Monday.  We have 1 open spot for Tuesday Mid-Range tuna trip departing 12AM Tuesday early morning returning late afternoon Tuesday 

 


09/29/2018

SUPER ACTION! Fast paced Jigging for mixed sized Blues to 8 pounds.  Most were  4-6 pounds with the ocassional bigger one mixed in.  Bert was the lucky one boating a nice Mahi-mahi, limit plus of Blues and an Alby too.  Weather was outstanding and continues wonderful Sunday & Monday.  


09/26/2018

Weather been DOG SHIT since Sunday afternoon.  We had no participants in point pleasant Wednesday morning for any boat to get out of Manasquan Inlet.  The Belmar boats did get out and both caught some mixed sized  Blues.  We will sail Thursday Bonito/Alby trip but we will depart at 7am instead of 6 due to the forecast.  Hope to see you aboard! 


09/23/2018

Picked well at the Blues  this weekend with an exotic or two mixed in. Sunday produced but it was a soggy one. We will NOT sail Monday & the Tuesday tuna trip is canceled due rough sea conditions. Thursday & Friday look best this week.


09/21/2018

SPECTACULAR ACTION, BEST OF THE YEAR!! Bluefish to 6 pounds with a dozen Alby mixed in today. Super action all day with a boat limit of Bluefish by 11am today.  Smaller 2oz plain diamonds worked best with fast retreive.  Weather looks very nice for Saturday and calm with clouds for Sunday, perfect fishing weather this weekend.  Enjoy some nice fall like weather and hot fishing action! Come on down.  Nice video of todays action on our facebook page 


09/20/2018

Tough day with some action!  I anchored up and we instantly had 3 fish on all Bonito. Unfortunately, that was the best of it.  Lots of small Blues kept folks busy the first hour and if you wanted porgies there were plenty as I got 15 keepers in short order, but it was a Bonito/ Alby trip so I moved around quite a bit and found one here and there plus Bernie's large Kig Mackerel that won the pool.  Blues cooperated for the Bluefish fleet today and we will head that way tomorrow as Friday weather looks very nice! See ya aboard 


09/19/2018

Fine Day Lots of Action and Variety again!  Thursday looks good for the Bonito/ Alby/Mahi trip tomorrow 6am open boat no resrvations required 

 


09/17/2018

Nice pick of mixed size Bluefish to 8 pounds today for the Binsky & Snyder Charter.  We will be sailing Thursday. Friday is iffy but Weekend is shaping up OK TO NICE


09/10/2018

Heavy Winds and Seas kept us in all weekend and now into the early week. The mid-range tuna trip is canceled for Tuesday and most have reschedued to othr dates.  Sept 25 Tuna trip is now Sold Out.  If you are interested in Oct 2 or 9. Please pre-purchase your seats as they are almost full too.   It will  begin to calm Tuesday.  Wednesday we are privately chartered so please join us Thursday & Friday.  Hopefully the next system doesnt affect us like these past few days.  I hope to see lots of Blues, Bonito & Alby after all this weather and things get back to normal 


09/07/2018

Choppy Conditions changed the action but still overall it was OK/good today! Those who put the effort in did well those who didnt struggled.  Hi-hook had over 25 Blues.  Weather looks very iffy for this weekend and Sunday is most likely canceled if the forecast holds.  Saturday will probably be a game time decison.  Either way it will not be calm, so if you want a nice calm day choose another time to join us. 

Thanks 

Capt Dave

Nice Day Aboard!! Calm seas and dry most of the day. The fishing started out very good with lots of Sea Bass Action with some keepers mixed in.  The Mack’s started not long after and just when I figured it was gonna be an easy day, it slowed up. The current started to run very hard and fishing got slower and slower.  We caught plenty in the end just not the fast action we had all weekend.  Tuesday is looking good mainly dry and seas will be calm. See ya aboard! 


07/29/2018

Gorgeous Weather this afternoon to fish the protected waters of the Manasquan River!  Nice Action with short Fluke and a few keepers mixed in too.  Best part is it's always very comfortable for all in the Manasquan


07/23/2018

Terrible weather since Friday has kept us at the dock! I hope this weather calms so we can get backout there.  Weare planning on fishing tomorrow afternoon's Family afternoon trip in the river if the ocean is not calm suitable for family type of trip

07/12/2018

SUPER WEATHER & Sea Bass action today! My father Charles was aboard and stopped fising at noon.  He said his arms were weary from reeling all the double header sea bass! The weatherman had everyone scared to even think about heading to the shore today as the town, all the boats and the beaches were empty.  The past two days may have been the nicest of the summer.  Please remember the Tropical System hype is FAKE NEWS unless the system is gonna makea direct hit.  Flat calm and fishing was SUPER ACTION the past two days.  Ryan and Lonnie combined for over 120 Sea Bass keeping their limit and throwing back many keeper sized fish.


07/11/2018

GREAT DAY, Look how calm it’s is!  First pic is John LaMond and family.  Great Action most of the day.  Sea Bass were non-stop mixed with Porgy, Triggers and we fought a huge Sand Bar Tiger Shark for over 30 minutes too. Weather continues wonderful Into the weekend! See ya aboard!

06/29/2018

Very Nice Day! Super weather & tons of sea bass action. Lots of keepers too


06/16/2018

What a gorgeous day on the water for a change. We had very good action early then a lull mid morning. The action came back around noon but never as good as it was early in the day. The keeper ratio wasn't as good as yesterday but a most had a few to take home. If you're planning on joining us Fathers Day please be aboard early.


06/15/2018

What a difference a day makes! Less Breeze made it possible to get off the beach to a few good spots and we picked away all day with Sea Bass and many keepers mixed in. Bert had his limit and many were close too. Fun, gorgeous day on the water for a change. Weather looks very nice for a weekend for a change. Hope to see you aboard!


06/14/2018

Terrible Day all around! Lots of wind no Blues SUCKO!


06/13/2018

Small group today aboard! The river didn't provide the action of yesterday so we heading for some Sea Bass and we had good Action most of the day. Lots of fish a nice amount of keepers plus some surprises too. Thursday looking NICE


06/12/2018

A mix of Blues & Sea Bass for Mark Cancelmo's group. We had the Blues for a little in the river and around the inlet early. A few more up the beach and it was Sea Bass action when the Bluefish stopped cooperating.


06/11/2018

Weather shaped up enough this afternoon to get Ken D'Andrea's charter out for some Sea Bass action and a little Striper time too. The Sea Bass action was slower than Sunday but the Keeper Ratio was much better. We spent the last hour of daylight trying for Stripers. I read the fish good a few times and managed to get a few bites and boat this Whopper Striper 46" on a Kroc. Many of the the bites lately have been on jigs. Weather really shaping up nice for the rest of the week. Sunshine, comfortable temps and Calm Seas. Hope to see ya aboard!


06/11/2018

NO SAIL too crappy Weather looking nice rest of the week!


06/10/2018

What a crappy day! Cloudy with light rain almost all day. This season is really shaping up to be a complete washout. We had lots of seabass action again but the keeper ratio keeps getting tougher each day as all spots are getting hit hard with the lack of Bluefish and Stripers many days. Better weather on tap after Monday so come on down and lets get this season rolling!!!


06/09/2018

Had Larry Hand's Refridgeration Design Charter aboard this morning. With the lack of Blues yesterday and the great drifting conditions we put the effort into sea bass and it worked out well! Not fast action like yesterday but we picked everyplace I went and ended up with a nice catch. Some Blues were found late in the day. We will look for Blues first as usual Sunday and switch up if need be. See ya aboard


06/08/2018

After maybe the best Bluefish action of the spring Thursday the Blues pulled a disappearing act this morning! We did had a handful early but the boat traffic was so bad that I couldn't even fish the area and had to leave. We took advantage of one of the nicer days this spring to drift for seabass & had action all day. Though the ratio of shorts to keepers isn't great most had plenty for a nice dinner. Please remember we are SOLD OUT Saturday June 9. Please join us Sunday instead


06/07/2018

Very Good Action overall all day today! We started the day picking fish in the river until the tide dropped off we ran up the beach and found fish splashing, birds picking and we had some fast paced jigging for Blues to 6 pounds. Very nice day! Weather looking very nice for Friday. Hope to see you aboard! Please remember we are SOLD OUT this Saturday June 9 but have plenty of room Friday & Sunday


06/06/2018

Good Action early again then it was all over for the remainder of the day. Magic Hour the Bass cooperated a bit better than the past few evenings

 


06/05/2018

VERY GOOD JIGGING for 3-5 pound Blues!! Light spinners with smaller 17 plain jigs worked best. Magic Hour wasn't so magic tonight. Weather nice and CALM Wednesday. Hope to see you aboard!


06/03/2018

No Sail due to very rough seas


06/02/2018

What a Gorgeous Day!! Weatherman really screwed the whole Jersey Shore with a incorrect forecast. They really have no idea how much tourist dollars are lost on a blown forecast. Fishing was steady action with moments of fast action for 2-5 pound blues on smaller jigs. Unfortunately, weather goes to crap late tonight so NO SAIL SUNDAY due to rough seas. See ya aboard


06/01/2018

Rain scared everyone away for the morning trip. Turned out to be a gorgeous day at the shore. Afternoon produced lots of Blues early. Later we had our shot at a bunch of Stripers but failed miserably to boat most. Scott did make the most of his opportunity though.


05/30/2018

We did not have enough to sail due to the terrible forecast but the days were actually not bad at all. Blues were jigged well today by the one boat in the fleet that was able to get out. Weather will be calm and mainly dry for Friday. Hope to see you aboard Friday.


05/29/2018

Very Nice Day! Super weather & tons of sea bass action. Lots of keepers too


05/27/2018

No Sail today due to inclement weather! We WILL SAIL Monday morning when the seas calm and a cloudy dry day with maybe a little sun by mid-day. See ya aboard


05/26/2018

The Blues popped up late and we were lucky enough to be the only party boat close enough to get in on the good action Saturday around noon. We picked at Sea Bass, Ling & Flounder. A big thanks to Capt John of the Kraken! He was headed in from his half day trip and saw the birds and fish splashing and was kind enough to let me know. Quick Action on jigs lets hope this is the start of something!


05/25/2018

Great weather again! The fishing well thats a different story. The Blues & Stripers were scarce again. We did get a handful of Blues early to start us off. After that is was a struggle. We spent a good portion of the day scratching a catch of Sea Bass


05/24/2018

With a small group aboard many who rarely fish the ocean. They opted for action over the very slow Striper and Blues yesterday morning. We had limits of Sea Bass along with superb weather. Great Day!


05/23/2018

Tough fishing Continues! Great weather makes it easier to take at least


05/22/2018

Sunday provided the best fishing of 2018 Unfortunately, today wasn't more of the same. We did manage a handful of Blues. We saw them and I read them but they didn't cooperate. Hopefully they do tomorrow!!


05/21/2018

After our best day of the season yesterday. Monday was back to slow fishing. We did manage a handful of Blues. I read fish so let's hope they cooperate tomorrow. Only 5 open spaces left for this Thursday's Magic Hour trip


05/20/2018

First nice day in a while and the Fishing was actually pretty good this morning! Lots of Blues to 8 pounds mainly on jigs. Weather is here the fish are too. Come on Down!

 


05/20/2018

What a Great Start! We were able to make enough bait and the small group made the best of the bait we had. We caught on Live & Dead Bunker, Poppers & Shads. Fun Evening aboard the Queen! We have plenty of room on both Tuesday & Thursday Magic Hours this week. Call me to reserve your space 732-996-2579


05/15/2018

Still slow fishing as hoping for nice weather and calm seas together. We will start the Magic Hour Stripers this Sunday and still have 6 open spots. We are trying to sail our 7:30am trips everyday weather permitting. See Ya Aboard


05/13/2018

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!


05/12/2018

Not enough to sail as weather just not good and fishing still slow.


05/05/2018

Water frozen and lifeless today. We will wait another week to try again


05/04/2018

We started our season with a very nice day to be on the water. That was about the only highlight. I saw no bait or signs of any life at all. We will wait until Friday May 11 to try again. Water needs to warm a bit more. Hopefully the fish show up soon! See ya aboard


03/30/2018

Happy Easter and Passover

We had a booth at the Saltwater Fishing Show in Edison a couple of weeks ago. It was nice seeing so many familiar faces. The Spring has yet to arrive so far and getting the boat all ready has been a chore as we need some dry warmish days to get her all ready to bring back to the slip. I plan on starting April 27 only if there is something to catch. Other boats are starting and you will be disappointed if you go too early. Freeze your ass off and catch very little until the water temps are right. Temps need to be in the high 40's to see any action at all. Hope to see you aboard


03/01/2018

Met a bunch of the Wednesday Gang for lunch yesterday. Great to see familiar faces and to catch up! Spring will be here before you know it and rods will be bending. See ya aboard late April


12/04/2017

Great Day to Wrap up the 2017 season!
Beautiful weather and Hot Action with Strtipers to 31"

We were able to keep a few and add some Bonus fish but most were short and released for another day! Hi-hook had over a dozen Bass with many folks in the 5-10 bass count. Thanks Again for your patronage! Hope to see you aboard next season


12/03/2017

Very Nice ACTION for smaller fish plus slots size. Many folks had 3+ bass with diamond jigs working best! Tomorrow, Monday Dec 4, WILL BE our last day of the season. Weather looks very nice 50's and calm with sunshine! Hope to see you aboard. WE WILL DEFINITELY have enough to sail!

 


12/01/2017

Very Good Morning for the Nutanix charter! We picked at Bass well until 10am with most fish in the 27"-33"range. Shads and diamond jigs worked well. Uncle Stoney was aboard and had 3 nice Stripers on a hammered diamond. Weather looks Super for early December this weekend. Hope to see yo aboard!


11/30/2017

Best Striper Action in a while! A few limits and most had a Bass or 3. Pete Ziemba was hi-hook with 5 Bass to 32" Good Day


11/29/2017

Another good day of action with Blues to 13 pounds and some Keeper Stripers mixed in. Jim Steel had 7 Blues, John Lamond had a bunch of Blues and a nice Keeper Bass. Herb won the pool with a slob Bass caught on a diamond jig


11/28/2017

Very Good Blues along with some Stripers mixed in. A-47 plain worked best Nov 27 Better than yesterday. Steady improvement the past couple days. Early leave 6:30 tomorrow Tuesday. George "the weatherman" won the pool with a 36" Bass taken on a large chartreuse Mojo.


11/26/2017

Today was much better than the past couple! We had some action with Bass and Blues mainly late in the day. We only threw back one short Striper and the others were all quality fish. Tomorrow looks good as does most of the week. See ya Aboard


11/25/2017

Lots of fish out there for the trolling boats but very difficult again for boats who can't troll. Capt Hack was Back as we caught Jack today. Can't say it any more truthfully than that! Read fish watch trollers get many but we couldn't get a sniff today. Maybe with the good Westerly winds tomorrow they will snap like they should. See ya aboard


11/24/2017

Tough Again! Rode all over the ocean to find very little. A few Blues and Bass all day


11/23/2017

THANKSGIVING
No Good we never found the hungry fish just a handful of nicer size Bass. Sam won the pool with a 20+ pounder. I read fish all day but hard to catch.


11/22/2017

Very Good first few drifts then it got slower and slower. Hi-hook had 8 fish


11/21/2017

Good Early morning action! Produced lots of shorts with a few keepers and slot fish mixed in. Once the hard Southerly winds kicked in around 10 it was basically over. Pic below is John Lamond showing off his Pool Winner caught on a Gold 47 diamond jig. West winds tomorrow should have the Bass back on the feed! Nice day on tap for Wednesday. Slight chance of an early morning shower before 8:30am. Don't let a little chance of early rain ruin a perfectly nice day. See ya aboard


11/20/2017

Cold & Breezy with Action all Day! I had many patrons with 5-10 Bass but many only kept one. Many short fish kept people busy on jigs and shads. Gold or silver A-47 & 67 were best and the shads produced as well for those who could find the bottom in the heavy winds. We will sail Tuesday Marathon 6:30am, but if your schedule is flexible, Wednesday 7:30am leave will be the nicer day


11/18/2017

No Sail too rough at least Forecast for Saturday was rough but turned out to be OK. I want to come back as a weatherman my next life LOL


11/17/2017

Another Fine Day! Action was not as fast paced as we picked at fish through the day. Quality size Stripers some on Shads & Mojos others on snagged Bunker. No Sail this weekend due to high winds


11/16/2017

Good Action Continues! We started with a bang! Today was very good to start and terrible to finish. Jigs, Krocs, Shads & Mojo's all produced when the bite was on early this AM. As the morning progressed we picked fish here and there but it was all over by 11AM. The tide dropped out the sun came out and the winds started to howl. This the fish did not like! We a very nice catch and many had their limit. A-47's plain again worked best overall. Remember we are chartered Friday. Weekend Weather, Sunday is Best as Saturday could be a blow out

 


11/15/2017

Another Fine Day for Striper Action! Though they were not jumping in the boat like yesterday. Many had their Limit of under 43" & a bonus fish. Frank Vavino had 5 fish to 32" Bill & Paul each had a Keeper and a Bonus. Bill Holden the Patriarch of the Wednesday Gang won the pool with a 35" fish and added a few others. Jigs again best, but the Shads and Mojo's did hold their own. We will sail Thursday. Fishing is HOT so Come Get SOME!


11/14/2017

SUPER ACTION for Stripers! Simply Awesome action on A-47 jigs gold and chrome plus shads worked well too. Retired fireman Pete said it was his best day jigging ever. He landed over 28 Stripers, won the pool with the 36" he kept along with a 27" bonus fish. All the others were released. Pete was using a plain A-47 hammered jig. Full Boat Limit before Noon is makes for an extraordinary day! We will fish Wednesday & Thursday, reminder that this Friday we are privately Chartered. Hope to see you aboard!


11/13/2017

Went the wrong way! It happens now and again and unfortunately will not be the last time. We did manage a few but still kicking ourselves for getting sucked the wrong way. Tomorrow we will hope for better results


11/12/2017

Better today! More fish and warmer temps. Tons of boats making it tough but we picked some mixed sized fish. Again it was not enough for the big crowd we had but we tried our best and many got one


11/11/2017

COLD COLD COLD today! WE couldn't believe how many boats were out in this cold weather today. We caught some nice Stripers but not nearly enough for the crowd we had. Plenty of fish around and weather looking very nice Sunday & Monday. Hope to see you aboard


11/10/2017

Blustery Conditions made it tough to drift and present baits and lures yesterday. Drifting over 2 knots in the heavy winds we did manage a few and lost some others! All nice size keeper fish though. Weather gets better by mid-day Saturday when the winds will drop and the temps get back to normal


11/09/2017

Picked at the Stripers on a mix of lures Shads, Jigs & Krocs all produced! Stripers are here so Come On Down


11/08/2017

Winds have calmed and we WILL be Sailing Thursday! Hope to see you aboard


11/06/2017

No Sail today. Weather will be too rough Tuesday & Wednesday. Thursday will be very nice and Friday a good day too. See ya aboard later in the week We never got to fish today. A passenger health issue as we approached the fishing grounds forced us back to the dock. As the weather was more rough than predicted we opted to have all the folks come back on a nicer day. We will NOT SAIL Monday. I'm keeping an eye on Tuesday. Thursday/ Friday appears to best weather this week.


11/04/2017

Rough weather made me change directions this AM. We had a bunch of kids and family groups, so I opted to stay where it would not be a Ass Whooping and it pays off! Stripers cooperated at times and we ended up with a decent pick at mixed sized Stripers. Turned out to be a nice day with some action. We will definitely get out tomorrow so COME ON DOWN


11/03/2017

HANDS DOWN THE BEST BLUEFISHING OF THE FALL TO DATE! JUMBOS TO 20 POUNDS WITH MOST 13-18 POUNDS. Diamonds plain or tails 47 size best! This weekend looks fishable but bouncy. I only took some video, so if you go to our Facebook page you can view the video. Hope to see you aboard!


11/02/2017

No Sail today not enough participants. Friday weather looks Great! We will definitely have enough to sail Friday. Weekend weather, Sunday is the nicer of the two days. See ya aboard


11/01/2017

Horrible first try for Stripers. Sounded like the Jumbo Blues cooperated though. I think we will try for Blues first and look for Bass late unless there is some better news. Hope to see ya aboard


10/30/2017

No Sail again Tuesday. We will let the ocean settle and Start the Striper season Wednesday! Stripers will be first on the agenda for the remainder of the season. There were some fish trolled before the weather and it sounds like a nice area of fish was headed down the coast last week. I'm hoping this latest round of weather along with the westerly today will get the ball rolling! See ya aboard Wednesday, Weather looks Super for Wednesday and nice into the weekend


10/29/2017

Big Storm no sail today or tomorrow. Tuesday should be a go but Wednesday will be nicest day of the week


10/28/2017

Started Quick and we picked for a bit at the Jumbos on jigs. The wind came up fast and hard early. As the seas built the fishing dropped off. Those who dropped to the bottom stayed busy with seabass. Sunday & Monday will be too rough. Hope to get our first Tuesday's Striper Marathon in, but stay tuned for a weather update. See ya aboard


10/27/2017

Picked at Jumbo Blues to 19.5 pounds on jigs. Best day in a while! Hope to see you aboard Saturday. Saturday looks very nice and Sunday will be too rough to sail. See you aboard Saturday


10/25/2017

No Sail today. Thursday is fishable, winds will be west and breezy. Friday is the BEST of the week with Saturday a close second. Sunday appears breezy with Rain. Hope to see you aboard


10/24/2017

No Sail too Rough! We will not Sail Wednesday too. Thursday and Friday look nice with West Winds. Friday is the best day of the week. See ya aboard


10/20/2017

Still Lots of Fish around but getting tougher to catch each day. Sunday & Monday we concentrated on SeaBass more than Blues.


10/18/2017

Lots of Fish Around but tough to catch. Read fish all day! Catching them was the rough part. We did get a good shot at Albys early before we ran off to look for the Jumbo Blues. Tons of fish but we only slowly picked at them on jigs. New Bob was Hi-Hook with 4 Big Blues. Bob was using a Gold Hammered jig. Weather looks great thru the weekend. Don't miss out on great weather in late October. Sea bass opens Sunday Oct 22, so we can keep SeaBass as we have been catching many while jigging for Blues.


10/17/2017

No Sail too rough


10/14/2017

Jumbo Blues have arrived in numbers after the Blow late last week. Saturday we read lots but the continued rough conditions made it tough. Sunday we were able to drift and jig and many had a bunch of Blues up to 20 pounds. Roy was Hi-Hook with 10 Blues. Saturday, Bert Dluhy caught the largest Blue in the past few years. His pool winner Saturday weighed in at almost 21 pounds. Weather looking better mid week with Wednesday looking best right now, and Monday worst. Hope to see you aboard


10/10/2017

Very Nice Day! Lots of Action for Bonito & Blues to 3 pounds. Dave was hi-hook with a limit of Blues and 18 Bonito. His hot lure was a pink epoxy jig. Regular hammered 1.5 & 2oz diamonds caught well too. Weather looks tough rest of the week. We will sail again Saturday if the weather cooperates


10/09/2017

We did not sail Sunday or Monday weather too rough


10/07/2017

Nice weather continued but the fishing did not! We did catch cocktail size to 3 pound Blues and some Bonito mixed in on jigs. Some Porgy and seabass kept folks busy as well. Wasn't terrible but certainly not what I had hoped for. Due to the forecasted hard South winds Sunday and Monday we will NOT SAIL next couple days. Tuesday looks nice at this time


10/06/2017

Great Summer like day in the water today! Lots of cocktail to 3 pound Blues with many Bonito, some Alby & Macks mixed in too. My Father, Charles, had 2 Bonito and a limit of Blues. We had many limits of Blues. Dr Bill fun with 12 Blues & 4 Bonito. Nice day aboard the New 85' Queen Mary! Weather Best Saturday this weekend


10/05/2017

Rough Conditions made it tough this morning. The ocean began to calm around noon. The fish cooperates as it calmed and by days end we had a catch. Tom with a couple nice Bonito is pictured. Weather looks Superb for Friday. Saturday is best of weekend! See ya aboard


10/04/2017

Good Action most of the morning for mostly 1-3 pound Blues on jigs. We did have some Bonito and Macks mixed in


10/03/2017

Inshore Tuna Trip:
Action started fast this morning! We were not anchored up 2 minutes and we had nice fish hooked up on a jig. Line was dumping and the 60pound jigging set up was doubles over. We never saw the fish though. A few minutes later 2 more hooked up on jigs one was off in a couple of minutes but Jim Steel was still tight. We got a good look at Jim's before it unbuttoned from his 4oz Deadly Dick. What a shame! A Big Mahi swam up the slick and Jim was able to get a bait in front of him and he was off to the races. We picked at some Bonito a few Alby but never saw another tuna bite after first light. Jim won the pool with this nice Mahi


10/02/2017

Fantastic Action today! Bonito were the mainstay with Blues, Macks and some Alby in the mix! Fun day aboard the New 85' Queen Mary! We are now sailing the new boat on a daily basis. Come on down check our new girl out. Tuesday is our Inshore Tuna trip departing 4:30am and we have a few open spaces. Come on down if you are interested

 


10/01/2017

We did not sail the morning trip as it was still rough from the blow Saturday night. We did get out for the afternoon and crushed Bonito! Lots of 2-4 pound fish on jigs, along with Blues and some Albys mixed together. This weeks weather looks tremendous for early October! Don't miss out on what has been the best Bonito season in almost 5 years. These fish will leave by mid-October if not earlier. Hope to see you aboard Monday is forecast to be a top 10 kinda day. Come on Down


09/30/2017

Wind came on harder than forecast and kept us from heading off the beach. We picked at 2-5 pound blues most of the morning on jigs. After noon it was slow. With the rough weather forecast tonight into tomorrow morning so we will NOT sail


09/29/2017

Nate and his crew were aboard for the Maiden Voyage aboard the Newest Boat in the fleet. The All New 85' Queen Mary! Lots of Bonito mixed with Alby and Blues.


09/26/2017

The first of our inshore tuna trips came close today. We found lots of bait and the right kind of water birds(shear waters. Pete Ziemba told me he lost count after many Mackerel and 20 Bonito. Pete also had a bunch of Albys too. Jim Steel one the pool with a nice Skipjack Tuna


09/25/2017

Fantastic Action all day! Started with jigging Blues and tons of Macks with some Bones mixed in. Later it was Blues & Jumbo Porgy bending the rods and creating smiles all around! The Quality Catch of the Day was Mitch Sewell's nice Mahimahi he hooked up on a bucktail. Per fact weather and great Fishing


09/24/2017

Seas finally calmed and the fishing came roaring back. Lots of Blues to jig along with all the Macks you could want and some Bonito and Jumbo Porgy too.


09/23/2017

Happy Birthday to my father Charlie! First day back after days of rough sea is usually not the best. We did get more than I expected but not good enough. We had some Blues, Alby & Porgy. This Big Jack(Banded Rudderfish I think) won the pool


09/22/2017

We WILL sail Saturday and Sunday this weekend and everyday weather permitting thereafter. Hope to see you aboard


09/20/2017

Tropical System has screwed us this week. No Sail Thursday or Friday maybe not till Sunday if we are lucky. Hope to see you aboard when the weather is conducive. Thanks


09/17/2017

AWESOME ACTION! Fast paced all day with Bonito, Albacore, Blues, Macks and lots of Jumbo Porgys. Bait was best but split tail Tsunami was deadly.

He had 5 Bonito and over a dozen Alby. Small diamonds and other shiny lures worked best. Tsunami's are also starting to work. Weather looking very nice Thursday Thru the weekend.

Lots of North wind gave us a good reminder that fall is around the corner. I opted to stay in the shelter of land and keep it relatively calm instead of heading offshore and getting many seasick. We picked at mixed size Porgy with a good ratio of keepers. Turned out to be a nice day! Weekend looks tricky. Monday will be the nicest day. See ya aboard
