Point Pleasant, New Jersey

I am a lifelong resident of Ocean County, New Jersey and have been a professional fishing guide for the past ten years. I have been an intense and avid salt-water fisherman for over thirty years. Both of my boats are especially well suited for fly-fishing. In our local waters we are able to catch large striped bass, bluefish, weakfish, fluke, albacore, bonita, spanish mackerel, and a variety of different tuna. As your charter-fishing guide I will also tailor fit our itinerary to target any specific salt-water species that are within our range and season if you desire. Whether it is live-lining bait or enticing them with a custom tied fly, I well do what it takes to put us on the bite. I would enjoy and welcome the opportunity to make your day an enjoyable experience and pleasantly memorable one fishing the rivers, bays and ocean as your personal salt-water fishing guide.

Targeting flounder near Egg Harbor City involves navigating the brackish waters where the Mullica River meets Great Bay. These flatfish thrive in the muddy bottoms and grassy edges. The best time to fish for flounder is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. Drifting with a bottom rig baited with squid, minnows, or bloodworms is a common technique. Focus on areas with slight current and structure, such as channel edges or bridge pilings. Flounder tend to bury themselves in the sand, so a slow presentation is key. Use light tackle to detect subtle bites. The Mullica River Boat Basin is a convenient access point. Pay close attention to the tide, as flounder fishing is often best during a moving tide. Water clarity can be variable, so try using scented baits to attract flounder in murky conditions.
