If you’re ready to enjoy saltwater fishing in Raritan Bay and offshore, book a trip with Olivia Rose Fishing Charters. Captain Greg will be your guide, so you’ll benefit from years of sportfishing experience.
Please remember to Tip your mate 20% only if you feel they did their job.
Thank you Capt. Greg.
Local species include Striped Bass, Flounder, Black Seabass, Tautog, Bluefin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, and more with any luck. During the trip you might be light tackle fishing, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children 12 and under must wear life vests, so please make sure you bring a life vest for your child. Also remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty stomach!
You’ll step aboard a 30’ Sea Fox center console that holds up to 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers, and all the essentials. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Greg will supply rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is available, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.
There’s no need to buy a fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
It’s always wise to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. No Drinks will be available for you, so please bring your own drinks. They do provide ice! Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Now, time to hit the water with Olivia Rose Fishing Charters!

4 Hour Trip – Fluke (PM)
Captain Greg was incredibly accommodating with all of my requests, including a specific method for dispatching the fish and rescheduling our trip due to unforeseen circumstances. The boat was clean and well-maintained, and both he and his first mate, Justin, were engaging, funny, professional, and excellent leaders. Everyone on board had a great time out on the bay. Despite some weather concerns, Captain Greg made a thoughtful decision that prioritized the group’s safety, which showed his responsibility and good judgment. I would absolutely book with them again. Thank you, Captain Greg and Justin!

Went on a 4 hour afternoon trip for my son’s 10th birthday. Great trip overall! Captan Greg is knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. He went above and beyond for my son to catch that fish. We weren’t having luck in the beginning due to high tides or something like that. So Captain Greg went to several spots to make sure he caught his fish! No first mate, but that did not matter, more room on the boat! The boat was nice and clean with cushiony seats. Wish there was more shade, but I guess all boats are like that, no big deal. We were fishing by Sandy Hook and saw some dolphins, which was very exciting! Highly recommend!

Thank you to the Capt of the boat and his one crew member also. The trip was amazing. Cant wait to do it again hopefully soon. Would highly recommend him to anyone. Can’t wait for the strikes fishing trip. And maybe blackfish. Differently would be worth a full day trip. I would highly recommend him. Going to have to make this annual trip every year. Thank you so much. Cant wait to see you again soon.

We went on our first fishing trip with Captain Greg and it was a lot of fun. The boat ride out was thrilling and we caught a lot of fish. We even caught 2 sharks. Will definately come back again.
