Catterman Adventures LLC offers the adventure of a lifetime to its patrons – right from the comfort of the beach! Come out with Guide Kevin 'Catterman' and his crew as they give you the chance to fish from the beach for Sharks with a true possibility of hooking into New Jersey's biggest saltwater predators – with fish over 10' long not being the thing of dreams, but reality!

Whether you choose a 6, or 8-hour trip package, there's truly no surf fishing experience more exciting than catch-and-release land-based Shark fishing, especially given the additional chance of catching giant stingrays!

Utilizing heavy-duty equipment, ethical catch and release practices, and high-quality media equipment, the Catterman Adventures LLC provides you with an amazing fishing experience that you will never forget about, that is both educational and family-friendly.

During your trip you may encounter prohibited/federally protected species of Shark – these must be immediately released without landing or possessing them – in this case, respecting the law will trump the desire for a photo or media content.

Catterman Adventures understands that in parts of the world fishing for these fish is controversial, so they want to face this issue hands-on by showcasing that fishing for them can also be beneficial to the species by utilizing the right practices. Sharks are incredible predators that fight like crazy and are shrouded in mystery and there's no feeling quite like being right next to one of these apex predators.

All charters operate during the evening/at night to avoid any negative encounters with the public and to ensure that visitors understand that these fish are much more active when people are leaving the beach.

In the end, by showing you how to correctly and ethically fish for them, Catterman Adventures wants to impart their love for them to you, but also wants to teach you how to correctly fish for them utilizing science-based practices. Join this amazing crew!

    ?? Veteran John ?? booked with us recently so we took another journey over to the old Jersey Shore stomping grounds. The goal was to put him on the biggest fish possible. What followed was a night full of catches, big fish caught, some lost, but all in all an absolute thrill. Got to befriend some more locals, and share some great stories on the sand between bites. Thanks again for your service, and for joining us.

  • A fishing reel silhouetted against a vibrant sunset over the ocean, capturing the serene atmosphere of a fishing trip.
    The water is full of creatures, inshore and deployed rods are getting slammed. We haven't had a single night without a fish and let me tell you, things are only getting started. We have already brought on shore several blacktips, and who knows what other kind of tropicals are awaiting you. The rods are re-strung, rigs are tied, and baits are fresh on ice. Let's catch some fish and go fishing!
  • An angler in a gray hoodie and blue waders is reeling in a shark from the surf at night, showcasing the thrill of beach fishing.
    First-mate Schwalm and I set out with our first bait drops of the season. Our evening was reward with SEVERAL large-and-in-charge summertime visitors! The fish are here, and the calendar is losing more and more green spots. Inshore species were plentiful too, so no matter whether you're a seasoned angler, or a family looking to experience fun and excitement... we are READY for you!

    The Catterman Adventures is excited to come back to you for another year of fish catching fun. Sharks, Stingrays, Croakers, Dogfish, and more await those who are ready to book. Make sure you seal in your dates before it gets too late! We are offering Lewes trips most of the week, while Cape May NJ has been added back to the calendar. Due to scheduling NJ trips will only be available Friday and Saturday nights. I'm excited to host you and to share my knowledge and excitement with all. There's nothing quite like this experience. Call me at **hidden content** with any questions or to book. Tight lines, - Guide Kevin 'Catterman'

    The fishing has been CRAZY good lately. The fish are hitting everything we're throwing at them... and clients like the Damons here are having the time of their LIFE! We set out on a 6-hour excursion with this team of 3 and everyone was happily tired from wrangling fish at the end of the evening. Looking forward to having these boys back for round 2 next year. Book now for a similar experience!

    The weather has stabilized, and so have the temperatures. The fishing has ramped up to where it was beforehand, and we are SLAMMING the fish! On this trip, we had the pleasure of hosting the Harveys on an 8-hour excursion. Many fish were caught, smiles were had all around, and the trip was topped off with a pizza party to reward this AWESOME family for all their hard fish-wrangling work. Blessed to be a guide, and blessed to be able to share the sand with others. Another adventure officially in the books for this summer of 2022!

    The cold-front is subsiding, and hereby the fishing is starting to peak again. We deployed several different baits, and around 11:30PM in the evening... one of our spinning outfits doubled on over. Before we knew it, we were onto something very large and charge! After a almost 30-minute tussle with the fish, Roland, Jim, and JR won their fight with a VERY large roughtail stingray. An amazing catch, which was shortly followed by a 3.5-4ft shark that JR made short work of on the conventional setup. Awesome group of guys, awesome trip!
