Prime Time II Sport Fishing is at your service! Meet your guide, Capt. Steve Beer, who operates out of Wildwood Crest, NJ. You can find him on the water any day between May and late September. Capt. Steve runs fishing trips that are suitable for angler of any skill level. You don’t have to be a lifelong enthusiast to have a great day on the water.

Join your captain on his 35’ Maine Coaster that accommodates up to 6 guests. The boat is powered by a mighty 450 HP Cummins engine, to ensure you a safe and comfortable ride. There’s an enclosed cabin with lots of seating space, a private toilet, and plenty of deck room for battling huge fish.

Your catch depends on the time of year. The season usually opens with specialized Drum trips and progresses to trolling for Mahi Mahi, Tuna, and Spanish Mackerel. But it doesn’t end there! You can also try spinning, bottom, and deep sea fishing for Flounder, Striped Bass, Bluefish, and Shark.

Capt. Steeve will provide you with Shimano and Penn fishing equipment and bait. If you want to keep the catch for a meal, the first mate will clean and fillet it for you free of charge (but tips are always appreciated). Feel free to bring snacks, drinks, and sunscreen.

If there’s anything you would like to discuss in advance, just contact the captain. He’ll do his best to make this fishing trip the one you’ll never forget. Spend a day with Prime Time II Sport Fishing and discover your new hobby!

4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing on July 15, 2025

Capt. Steve and First Mate Jerry were great. We wanted to bottom fish for our dinner and the flounder bite has just been off in Jersey. The crew was upfront about this and even asked if we’d rather fish for shark. When we declined they took us bottom fishing in multiple places when we didn’t have luck they switched us up to trolling and we caught a bunch of blues and a couple of Spanish mackerel. Was a beautiful day, everyone had fun, the crew were engaged and fun, and we fed two family some of the BEST fish tacos ever. Would highly recommend this charter and will book again!

4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing on June 23, 2025

We had an amazing experience with this fishing charter! From start to finish, Steve and Jerry were absolutely outstanding. They were incredibly hardworking, extremely friendly, and went above and beyond to make the day enjoyable for everyone — especially the five kids in our group (ages 11 to 16). Not only did they assist the kids every step of the way, but they also took the time to teach them about fishing — from baiting hooks to reeling in their catches. It was a very hands-on and educational experience that the kids will never forget. Steve and Jerry’s patience and enthusiasm truly made the day special. At the end of the trip, they filleted all the fish we caught and even provided ice and bags so we could take everything home. We've been enjoying delicious fresh fish ever since! This trip gave our family wonderful memories, and we can’t thank Steve and Jerry enough. Highly recommended — we’ll definitely be back!

4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing on July 3, 2025

This was our first time fishing on a small boat out to sea. The captain and crew member were very knowledgeable and had some great stories! We caught 8 Bluefish that we kept for dinner (fish tacos!!) and another 6-8 that were to small to keep. We also caught a 40lb Red Drum which was the highlight of the afternoon. It took 4 of us to reel it in!

Captain Steve has been fishing for over 40 years in the area. For years, he was teaching people to fish and was taking them out on his boat. At one point, he decided to do this full time and make it into a profession. The best part of it is that you constantly meet new, fun people and catch fish at the same time.
