Chasing Tails Charters
Enjoy a day on the fish-rich and beautiful waters of New Jersey and make lovely fishing memories with Chasing Tails Charters. You start out of South Amboy, where Captain Joseph Greco will meet you and take you to Raritan Bay, the nearby rivers, or nearshore waters. Come aboard and spend a lovely day fishing these bountiful and scenic grounds!
Your trip will take place on a 19’ Ranger RP 190 bay boat. It can fit 2 anglers, runs on a single 125 HP Evinrude engine, and uses GPS, fishfinder, as well as VHF radio technology to maintain safe and efficient movement on the water. It also has a livewell for keeping live bait and an ice-box for storing your fish.
You and Captain Joseph will be fly fishing, trolling, jigging, and popping on light tackle in order to attract the fish. The species you can find on your trip are Striped Bass, False Albacore, Flounder, Bluefish, and Weakfish. You choose whether you’ll release your catch or keep it and take it home. Kids are welcome to join the trip.
Captain Joseph will take care of all the fishing rods, reels, tackle, live bait, lures, and fishing licenses. If you decide to keep the fish you caught, he can clean it and fillet it for you at no extra charge. Bring nothing but your snacks and drinks before you start the trip.
Chasing Tails Charters welcomes you to the lovely marine world of New Jersey!

A must book, for all experience levels!
This experience was amazing. My husband and I are beginner fishers and Joe made sure to take the time to teach us and answer all our questions. We caught so many fish!!! Joe is the kind of captain that goes above and beyond. 10000% would do again and recommend to everybody!

Half Day Trip – Striped Bass (AM)
Fun day of Fishing
We met Captain Joseph just before dawn on the Raritan River. We had a lovely morning on the Raritan Bay trolling for stripers. After landing 3 nice fish, we headed into the Raritan River and tried our luck casting for stripers. It was great to utilize different techniques and locations in one trip.

Half Day Trip – Striped Bass (PM)
Great day on the water!
We had a great day on the water! It was a nice day and the fish were biting! Captain Joe was awesome! He knew where to go where the fish were biting, we thought the trip was over as he took us to the sunset but continued for more fishing! We highly recommend Captain Joe! You won’t be disappointed.
