About
Seabass is our specialty every Fall and when the season opens on October 8th we will be targeting this great eating fish every day.
What can I expect:
• We will be concentrating on wrecks, and artificial and natural reefs. • Depths can vary from 70 feet of water to as deep as 250 feet. • Seabass is the target species but many other species frequent New Jersey's wrecks in the fall including big Porgies, Blackfish, Cod, Pollock and flounders.
Hefty bags of filets are common on all these wreck trips, so check the calendar and pick a trip thats fits your schedule best.
