Stripers are cooler water fish and peak in the late fall into early winter in Southern NJ waters. They can be caught in the back bays, Delaware Bay and the ocean. The prime time has been mid to late October into December. Trolling has been the preferred means of Striper fishing in the ocean while chunking has been the norm in the bays.

While there are a variety of shark species, we principally target Mako and Thresher Sharks which make great table fare.
