This trip went way over our expectations.  The crew could not have been more supportive of our fishing experience.  Everything was so well prepared during the entire 5hrs.  It was the most wonderful day out on the ocean fishing.  We will definitely book again…can’t wait to go out again

You never know what to expect with all the conflicting fishing reports, but these guys PUT YOU ON FISH.

This was our first time doing striper fishing on a charter boat - and let me tell you - this trip exceeded all expectations. The ship was very clean and the captain and first mate were excellent. The inside of the cabin is spacious and kept us warm while we were sailing to the right spot.

These guys put us on fish within the first 30 minutes and we limited the boat on keeper fish by 9am! We caught 30 total! I would hands down recommend this boat and crew to anyone interested in striper fishing!

I spent my high school summers in the early 1980s fishing out of Point Pleasant Beach on my dad’s boat. This summer I brought my wife, 2 grown children, my daughter’s boyfriend, and my brother-in-law to share with them the experiences I had growing up, and the Sligo II did not disappoint. I did miss the captain’s name (oops) but he did a fantastic job throughout the morning putting us on top of the fish. The first strike was within 5 minutes of dropping the first hook into the water. Over the next 4 hours, we continued to hook fish, both fluke and sea bass. He’d reposition the boat to ensure we were always well placed. Most of the fish we caught were below the legal limit to keep, so they were returned to the water, but we did manage to catch 3 that were above the limit - they weren’t the biggest fish, but they were delicious. The first mate was also very attentive, quick to step in and assist as necessary. My only suggestion is when families are onboard, do a quick check of whether anyone wants pictures when they catch a fish, even the small ones, before putting them back (maybe not every fish, but at the first one for each person). All in all an enjoyable time for us all - met my every expectation. Thank you!

Phenomenal trip on the water today, got into keeper stripers and a few overs. KC is an extremely knowledgeable captain and taught me many things over the 8 hour time span. Anthony is also a great teacher on and off the boat which is more than a young fishing crew can ask for. Super cool charismatic guys that know what the hell they’re doing ! Highly recommend fishing on the Sligo II , they play music that will knock your socks off one minute & will also ease your soul a song later. Thanks again for the great trip gents it was a pleasure

We had an awesome fishing trip on the Sligo II.  The boat is fantastic.  The crew was knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and did a great job finding the fish.  We would definitely book again.
