Scaled Up Fishing Charters welcomes you to Sayreville, New Jersey. Join them for a memorable day on the water as you explore its inshore, nearshore, as well as offshore grounds along with lovely reefs and intriguing wrecks full of fish. You and Captain George Paley will go to the Raritan Bay where you can target a huge number of different species and try out various fishing styles, including even live lining and clamming. The captain’s only goal is to make your trip a memorable one, so join in and have a true fishing adventure in Sayerville!

Scaled Up Fishing Charters uses a 37’ Pacemaker offshore sport fishing boat that can accommodate 6 passengers comfortably. Its cockpit’s large with plenty of fishing room and its facilities include a flybridge, kitchen, toilet, shower, and beds. The boat is air-conditioned and features a TV, refrigerator, and an ice-box. It runs a twin 450 HP Cummins engine and uses all the modern Garmin and Icon technology for navigation. The onboard fishing gear includes outriggers and a livewell. On board will also be a first mate.

There’s a huge choice of fishing techniques you can try your hand at. Bottom and deep sea fishing, trolling, jigging, spinning, popping, fly fishing, drift fishing, and even spearfishing will all be available to you as you search the water. Some of the quality species you can target include Tuna, White Marlin, Mako Shark, Cod, Mahi, and many more. You can keep the fish you catch as well as bring kids on your trip.

Captain George covers you for the tackle, bait, licenses, and catch cleaning, meaning you should only bring fly fishing equipment and the food and drinks of your choice.

Come aboard and enjoy a terrific fishing adventure with Scaled Up Fishing Charters!

Stripers 3/4 Day Trip (AM)

Beautiful Day on the Water

VERIFIED

Had a great time again on this boat with Captain George. My party started a little late and we weren't able to get live bait in the morning but we were able to hook into a couple of stripers on the troll. After that the Capt. got some news about where he might be able to get some bait so we went searching. We wound up with some bait and started fishing. What a difference it made with the bait. We caught a few more and then we went looking for some more bait and again started fishing and we wound up catching some more fish. The only bad thing (nothing to do with the boat or the crew) is that all the fish were over the limit. Which made for some great fishing just nothing for dinner. LOL Also the Capt. went out of his way to make sure that we all had a great time and even kept us out longer than scheduled. Can't wait to go out again and I can't see myself ever going on another boat.
