Based out of Lake Hopatcong NJ. NY Harbor Fishing is your ticket to memorable freshwater fishing. Captain Joe is a professional fisherman with a lifetime of angling experience. So, who better than him to get you out on the water?

He specializes in light tackle, fly fishing, popping, and spinning. Be it Bass, Sunfish, or Crappie, Captain Joe is your go-to guy. His Ranger boat has enough room for up to 2 anglers, so no crowd will spook your fish. Plus, the boat is equipped with a wireless trolling motor that ensures further stealthiness.

When it comes to rods, reels, and terminal tackle, everything you need is included in the price. There will be complimentary drinks aboard for your convenience during the trip, but feel free to bring your own drinks or snacks if you prefer.

Don't forget to buy a fishing license before the trip, though! And bring your kids – the little ones are welcome. Also, mind that these trips are strictly catch and release, so expect to return anything you catch back to the water.

Book your trip now and hit the water with NY Harbor Fishing.

Wonderful time

Captain Joe was amazing. Took us out on a beautiful spot at the Delaware Water Gap. Spent plenty of time working with my 9 year old, showing him tricks and helping him have an absolutely memorable and enjoyable experience. Couldn’t have asked for

My father had me fishing at around age 5. I got hooked pretty hard and quickly. Fishing is practically all I do. Taking people fishing is a truly fulfilling job. I also fish with The Bass Anglers Sportsman Society, also known as B.A.S.S., Major League Fishing, previously called FLW, and American Bass Anglers. My son, Captain Hunter, worked as my mate since age 9. Now he's a licensed Captain who knows all my tricks plus adds his own expertise to the day.
