Stray Cat Sport Fishing
Book your next trip with Stray Cat Sport Fishing and find out what the fishing in Longport is all about.
The fish in these waters include Striped Bass, Bluefish, Tautog, and more if conditions are right. During the trip you might be light tackle fishing, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!
You'll be casting lines from a 53' Downeast with space for 6 passengers. It comes with downriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. What's more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
It's never a bad idea to bring sunblock (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

9 Hour Trip – Captain's Choice
Fantastic Day on the Water with Stray Cat Charters
Took a trip with Stray Cat Charters recently with my son Johel, my nephew Henry, and my wife. Even though we didn’t land anything huge, we had an absolute blast pulling up seabass one after another—it was non-stop action! Captain Mike and the crew were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone had a great time from start to finish. Special shoutout to the first mate, Austin—he was awesome. Super helpful with baiting hooks, untangling lines, answering all of my ridiculous questions, and keeping the energy high all day. He was especially great with the kids and kept the whole experience running smoothly. My wife got a little seasick partway through the trip, but the crew checked in on her often and helped her feel comfortable while the rest of us kept fishing. They were really attentive and professional across the board. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and spacious enough for everyone to move around comfortably. You can tell these guys know what they’re doing and genuinely care about giving you a great experience. Highly recommend for families or anyone looking for a relaxing, fish-filled day out on the Jersey coast. We’ll definitely be back for another round!
