Boat Limits of Tilefish and Mahi Mahi

Fluke and Sea Bass have been showing up. Captain Adam and Captain Mike have produced quality fish offshore and inshore! The Fall can be the best time to go for Fluke.

Captain Mike reports a steady bite on croakers and kingfish with a mix of weakfish, fluke and even the occasional triggerfish! The fishing has been good for the novice angler learning what ocean fishing is all about. We are bottom fishing on mostly open bottom. This means few snags and hanfs to loose gear. The ride to the grounds is shorter than trips to the reef so you can maximize fishing time on a the foir hoir trip. Many of the croakers are smaller. You can keep them if you wish, but many folks throw the smaller ones back and pick through them for the right ones. It provides action for younger anglers and families alike. The fluke and weakfish are present though keepers legal in the state of New Jersey can be tough to find. They are there with some recent catches of 18-21” Fluke. We also have seen Triggerfish starting to bite which are a welcome sight. Triggerfish are also delicious. The croakers do cook up well for fish tacos!

The night Drum Bite is on! We caught fish up to 65 lbs! The crew of the Miss Chris went three for fourth. The fourth fish got right beside rhe boat and rhen rolled in the tide and snapped the 50lb mono filament on the gill plates! These fish are true monsters!
