Your catch that can be kept legally will be cleaned at the end of the trip.
You’ll need to bring along a small cooler of food and drinks. Don’t forget your sun protection and polarized sunglasses, and you’ll be ready for a top day out.

Captain was ready to go as soon as I arrived as usual. It was a beautiful sunny morning with a light wind. I landed my 1st Blue about 1/2 way out Barnegate Inlet. Then over the next 2 hours I reeled in so many Robin's and "just under keeper size" Fluke that my arms hurt. What a Blast. A small Sea Bass i almost forgot to mention. Then we were so busy with my 1st keeper, 22" fluke, that we didn't notice the waterspout forming between us and shore. I grabbed some great photos as Captain Al expertly maneuvered us north, then I land to get us behind the waterspout. We made it thru the wind and rain that followed, headed back into the bay for a few more Fluke, then back In to close out another great adventure with Captain Al.
What a great guy to have aboard for fishing and good conversation
Caught some nice bluefish and fluke. The boys had a lot of fun learning from Capt Alan. Thanks for a great day!
