If you’re looking for a serious fishing adventure out of New Jersey, Jersey Coast Charters™ is standing ready to provide! With over 20 years of fishing experience, Captain Ryan Oppenheimer and his crew will take you on a trip you’ll remember for years to come. Whatever your skill level, they’re ready to show you a good time on the water.

You’ll be fishing from a 30’ Contender that runs on twin 250 HP Yamaha engines. These will ensure a quick trip to all the best fishing spots around. There’s plenty of room here for up to 6 anglers to fish in comfort, so you’re more than welcome to bring some friends or family along for the ride. The boat is outfitted with all the gear needed for a safe and productive ride, so you only need to focus on the actual fishing.

Speaking of fishing, you’re in for quite a treat. These waters are teeming with big fish, and you’ll be going straight after them. Depending on which type of trip you book, inshore or offshore, your targets are likely to be Striped Bass, but you’ll also see some Sharks, Yellowfin and Bluefin Tuna, Wahoo, and more besides.

Everything you’ll need for a day of fishing is included in the price, from rods and reels to bait and catch cleaning after the trip. All you need to bring is a pair of sunglasses, some sunscreen, as well as any drinks or snacks you’d like to have for the trip ahead. Come on down for a day of angling action with Jersey Coast Charters™!
