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.

Flounder fishing in Keyport, NJ, offers a classic saltwater experience in the Raritan Bay. These flatfish are a popular target for anglers of all skill levels. The best time to fish for flounder is during the spring and fall when water temperatures are moderate. They can be found in relatively shallow water, often near muddy or sandy bottoms. The Keyport harbor and surrounding areas provide excellent access for both boat and shore anglers. A simple bottom rig with a small hook baited with sandworms, clams, or squid is highly effective. Drifting with the tide can help cover more ground and locate feeding fish. Pay attention to the tide charts, as flounder often bite best during moving water. A local tip is to chum the water with crushed clams to attract flounder to your fishing area. Remember to check the current regulations regarding size and bag limits before heading out.
