Located in Southern Ocean County, NJ, Lower Shore Charters offers unmatched access to the extensive waterways surrounding Long Beach Island and Island Beach State Park. These waters are known for their rich fisheries and scenic beauty, making them the perfect backdrop for an exciting day on the water.

Our Southport center console is widely regarded as one of the best vessels in its class, built to deliver both comfort and performance. With its seaworthy design and stability, it’s more than capable of handling tough conditions while still providing a smooth and enjoyable ride.

We specialize in inshore and nearshore fishing from April through January, targeting local favorites such as Striped Bass, Black Sea Bass, Blackfish, Fluke, and Bluefish. Whether it’s jigging for fluke in the back bays or chasing trophy stripers along the coast, every trip is tailored to the season and your fishing goals.

At Lower Shore Charters, our mission is to provide more than just a fishing trip—we deliver an authentic Jersey Shore experience. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or simply looking to spend a memorable day on the water with family and friends, we’re here to make it unforgettable. Book your trip today and see why fishing the waters of Southern Ocean County is second to none.

Great Boat and Crew for a Private Charter
Striped Bass 4 Hour Trip on August 29, 20252 adults2 children
My friend and I took our kids out with Captain Graham. This was their first time boat fishing, so the trip was mainly for their experience. Graham and his first mate were excellent. They explained stuff clearly, remembered the kids' names, helped them out, and got them involved. Graham even invited my daughter (6) to sit up with him at the console on the ride back. We went ocean fishing, then returned to the bay and trolled around some piers, giving us a varied fishing experience. We caught fish, and everyone had a blast. I would highly recommend this charter. Very family-friendly, and Graham seems like a great person in general.

Fantastic day!!
Striped Bass 4 Hour Trip on August 14, 20252 adults
Captain Graham was great, fun to chat with and easy going. Got us on lots of fish and gave us a little extra time to try and get the elusive keeper fluke. Never got it but hit our limit of sea bass and he even filleted them, vacuum sealed them and dropped them off at my rental house! Can’t ask for better service than that! Will definitely de back again!!!
