Jersey Shore Fishing with Captain Dave’s Charters

Located on the southern coast of New Jersey, Beach Haven is a gateway to some of the most rewarding saltwater fishing adventures along the Jersey Shore. Captain Dave’s Charters operates from this bustling maritime town, inviting anglers of all levels onto the Benita J., a well-equipped vessel ready to tackle the Atlantic’s diverse offshore and inshore fisheries. Captain Dave’s reputation for professionalism and local expertise has made his charters among the region’s best for striped bass, bluefin tuna, and bigeye tuna.

The fishing experiences offered range from focused day trips targeting prized offshore tuna species to overnight excursions into the special canyons offshore, where bigeye tuna thrive beneath the surface. The Big Eye Special Canyon Overnighter is a standout for anglers seeking a bold overnight expedition with opportunities for bluefin and striped bass along the way. An Offshore Tuna Day Trip focuses on trolling and chumming techniques beyond the nearshore shelf, where the giants of the sea roam.

Captain Dave and his first mate command deep local knowledge, adjusting routes based on real-time conditions and fish movement. Reviewers consistently highlight the smooth combination of skill and hospitality — from state-of-the-art gear and heated cabins to efficient filet service after a successful day. The warm rapport between crew and anglers creates a fishing trip that feels as welcoming as it is thrilling.

Beach Haven’s proximity to rich oceanic currents funnels fish toward its waters, making it an exceptional jumping-off point for saltwater expeditions on the Atlantic coast.
