PrimeTime Fishing Charters
Whether you're looking for the reel-screaming thrill of fighting a trophy-sized fish or you want to provide your family a relaxing day spent outdoors, PrimeTime Fishing Charters has a trip for you! Captain Karl McKenna will put you on the hottest bite in the waters of New Jersey.
You'll fish from a 20' Grady White walkaround, built in 1990. She's proven the quality of her build time again and again and still takes anglers with the same gusto as the day she was launched. She can handle 2 anglers and the captain at the same time. The engine is a 200 HP Yamaha outboard that'll get you to your fishing grounds quickly.
Capt. Karl will provide you with the equipment and instruction for a wide range of fishing techniques. You'll do bottom fishing, trolling, jigging, spinning, and drift fishing with conventional or fly rods. You should bring your own fly rods, though.
This mix of techniques is there for a reason; there's a great variety of species to target. Striped Bass, Flounder, Tautog, Ling, Bluefish, Scup, and whatever else you run into can be hooked up.
Remember to pack a cooler for your catch, the captain will clean and fillet your fish free of charge. Fishing licenses aren't needed, the captain's license will cover you. Later departure times are available upon request.
Explore the waters of New Jersey the right way. Book a trip with PrimeTime Fishing Charters and cast off on a fishing adventure!

Capt. Karl was cool and patient with children and novice anglers. He got us on fish and was a phenominal teacher showing us the ropes to snag our targeted fish. I’d recommend and I’m looking forward to doing another trip in the future. thanks Capt!
Catain karl was very helpful in al aspects. help us get on board safely told and showed us howcto fisn for best catch. took us to several spots and caugt fish at all areas. 1st time salt water fishing he made it enjoyable.
Perefect trip with Catain Karl and the Prime Time boat. Nice to be on what felt like a private trip with an old friend. We highly recommend Captain Karl and his boat

Our 8-year-old son, Hunter, had the ultimate saltwater fishing experience today—his dream come true! Captain Karl is absolutely top-notch. Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable, but he was also patient, encouraging, and especially great with Hunter. We reeled in flounder, snappers, and even got a surprise ray! Couldn’t have asked for a better day. Thank you, Karl, for making it so memorable. Highly recommend 100%!
Captain Karl was enthusiastic and determined to keep us on fish the entire trip. Captain Karl consistently engaged in fishing conversations with my eight year old the entire trip. We caught several different species of fish. We also observed several pods of dolphins and even a Humpback Whale breached the water 20 yards from the vessel. It was a pleasure to spend the morning with Captain Karl. My son and I will be on the water again with him in the next two weeks. Guaranteed. Ed
Captain Karl made my birthday one of the most memorable days of my life! Great job showing me and my kids the bay and what fish are in season. Also having the patience to answer all my questions. I highly recommend anyone book a trip with captain Karl. I will be see you soon sir. Thanks again.
This was my 12 year old’s first fishing trip. He loves to fish, but to date had only fished in fresh water. Captain Karl was a wonderful host and Captain; my son and I both learned a tremendous amount. We were able to fish in several different spots throughout our trip, and caught a variety of fishes (sea bass, fluke, skates, etc.). Captain Karl is very patient and extremely friendly; we wouldn’t hesitate going out with him again. The boat was clean and comfortable. We even got to video a humpback that Captain Karl spotted. He took us close so we could get as close-up as possible as soon as he spotted it. An absolutely wonderful day and experience. Don’t hesitate to book with Captain Karl and Prime Time. We will be again soon.

Captain Karl was a very nice and professional guide. Unfortunately we did not land the flounder we were hoping for (we caught some, but were undersized and had to put them back). However, we were fortunate to land bluefish, porgie and tons of black sea bass. Highlands is a very nice town (I prefer it over Long Island). Has a lovely beach, church and various seafood options (although they can be expensive). Definitely recommend for a weekend get away for anyone in the New York metropolitan area.

My dad used to fish for flounder when he was a teenager, so for Father’s Day, I surprised him with this fishing trip :) We truly had the best time. Captain Karl is incredibly kind and knowledgeable. I haven’t fished too many times, so his guidance was extremely appreciated. With his help, I was catching fish left and right! After we left, my dad said it was the “perfect day,” and I think that sums everything up pretty perfectly :) Thank you so much Captain!!!

The Captain was knowledgeable and very helpful. We had a great fishing experience and also learned new skills. i would highly recommend using this charter.
