If you want to be fishing in Barnegat Light with a captain that has fished these water since the age of 12, you need to check out LBI Charters.

These waters are known for Black Seabass, Tautog, Flounder, Striped Bass, Scup (Porgy), Common Ling, and more – all of which are species Capt Greg has been targeting for over 40 years! On these trips, you can expect to bottom fish using light tackle and cast lures/live bait for Striped Bass.

If you're traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Snacks are also a good idea to stay fueled throughout your trip!

Greg has over 40 years experience fishing off LBI, and specializes in bottom fishing. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well any bait or lures you need for the day.

best experience fishing!
7 Hour Trip – Fluke Fishing on July 15, 20264 adults

We have always gone on larger boats and have only caught one keeper over all the years. With LBI charter we manaaged to catch over 80, with 11 being keepers! Great knowledge from the captain and the equipment is top notch, poles work so smooth and easy to feel any bites. The bait was also phenomenal.Overall the best experience and we will definitely be using LBI charters every year from here on out.

Reported catch:
Black Seabass
Flounder
