Nearfall Fishing Charters
Nearfall Fishing Charters is located in Belmar and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.
Come on aboard with Capt. Joseph, whose main priority is to get you on some fish. Expect to use techniques like bottom fishing, trolling, big game fishing, drift fishing, jigging, and spinning, based on the species you’re targeting. Speaking of which, you have the option of 4 to 12-hour trips, where you’ll be fishing for the likes of Bass, Flounder, Seabass, Tuna, Bluefish, and Shark, depending on the specific season and the day’s weather.
Your adventure begins on board a 35’ Donelle boat that can fit a maximum of 6 anglers. The boat is fitted with a toilet and ice box. Departing from Shark River Inlet, the vessel is conveniently located at the Belmar Manutti Marina; just minutes away from the Garden State Parkway and Interstate 195.
All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing.
The captain will supply all the needed fishing licenses for your trip.
You’re welcome to keep all legal species caught during the trip.
Here to help you with anything you need, the first mate will be on hand during the trip. Leaving a tip for a job well done is much appreciated.
Want to bring the rest of the family along for the ride? Kids are welcome aboard, so you’re free to make it a family adventure.
Book your trip now and hit the water with Nearfall Fishing Charters.

Hard working crew!
Captain John and 1st mate Mitch worked their butt's off to find fish and get us on them. There were plenty of times where they could have just said the fish aren't biting and that's the way it goes, but they kept looking and trying different tactics till we finally reeled in 5 nice stripers. Two of them keepers and the other three over the slot limit. Look forward to using them again!

Best Six-Pack Charter in New Jersey
Captain Joe is a young, aggressive captain that works his butt off to put you on the fish. He grew up mating on the party boats. Now he owns and runs the cleanest charter boat in New Jersey. I have caught everything with him: stripers, sea bass and fluke to name a few. You want a great day on the water fishing with a great captain and crew, then book a trip on the Nearfall. You will have a great time. That is why I fish at least six times a year with Captain Joe on the Nearfall.

Great Day On The Water
Had an awesome day fishing with Captain John and Ryan. They knew to keep us inshore due to rougher conditions offshore. Caught our fill of porgy for good eating, and still had time to go for blackfish and we almost got some keepers. Both guys super helpful and friendly. Everyone had a blast. Only one small issue was not enough seating for 6, but it wasn't a big deal.

Fluke trip on 7/27/22
We went out with Near fall on 7/27 and had a great time. John and Ryan were great, helped my two sons all day long and we’re always moving trying to get us on the fish. We had a great day w a bunch of keepers and everyone was reeling in something most of the day. I’d highly recommend them and certainly head out with this crew again. Thx
