Fishing out of Barnegat Light's waters, depending on when you go the following species are available: Striped Bass, Fluke, Tautog, Sea Bass, Mahi Mahi, Bluefin and Yellowfin Tuna. False Albacore and Bonita, Little Tunny Spanish and King mackerel. The way we catch the fish varies from spinning, trolling, drifting, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Frank can also show you kite fishing.
We clean and bag your fish so bring a cooler.
There are no licenses required as the charter boat has all State and Federal Permits to catch and legally retain the fish caught.
Capt. Frank believes in teaching kids to fish while they're young, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks to keep up those energy levels!
You'll find yourself aboard a 30' Sea Hunt Gamefish 30 center console with a capacity for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers and all the essentials and all the electronics no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Frank will provide rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait for some species too!
It's always wise to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
We will try and accommodate persons with disabilities but you need to inform us in advance of their conditions so we can truly evaluate what level of service we can provide.

What a wonderful day at sea! Captain Frank and his First Mate Lincoln were so welcoming, accommodating and certainly knowledgeable! Our morning was filled with great sights, fish catching and laughs! My 7 year old stole the show with all his keepers! They made us feel so comfortable and brought us out to great spots to fish! Family friendly for sure! Look foward to booking another trip in the future! Thank you again!!!
Frank and his mate were great. His boat and gear were topnotch. We did an all day trip and despite some rough seas he came up with a game plan for tuna, mahi and flounder. We were on fish and had a great time. He was very informative and amusing. We will definitely book again with Frank the next time we can get down to LBI.

We did a 4 hour trip with Frank and caught 2 keeper Striper 1 Keeper Flounder, a shark a skate and lost a few more flounder and lost a few along the way. Captain and deckhand were helpful and hospitable, and my family and friends had a great time what more could I have asked.
We took my son and his friend striper fishing for his 13th. Bob was great, put us on the fish but we couldn’t get any to bite. We threw everything in the aresenal at them, but some days the bite is just soft. There were a lot of other boats out, and no one was hooking up. Definitely condition related and not due to lack of effort or knowledge. I’d highly recommend. We’ll try again with Capt. Bob and Branarchy Sport Fishing!
Captain Frank was lots of fun and very patient with teens who were learning and mom (who had no idea what she was doing but along for the ride!) It was a great morning—everyone caught fish—-and a great experience. Thanks Captain!!
First time fishing for Stripers at LBI. My 17 year old son and I went out for the afternoon and landed 6 big ones between us. The fish were moving around a lot, but Captain Frank always knew where to find them - close enough they were practically jumping out of the water! Don’t let the weather scare you off - great fishing in November.
Our family loves going fishing with Capt. Frank. We always catch fish and he treats us all like family.
The. bite was slow. But Captain Frank put us on some sea bass and fluke. We had a great trip

Tuna and fluke

Had an amazing time shark fishing with Captain Frank. He clearly knew the waters well and got us right on the action over a shipwreck — hooked into multiple mako sharks and had a few intense fights. The setup was solid, everything was ready to go, and he gave clear guidance without ever overstepping. It felt like a real hands-on experience, not just a tourist ride. If you're looking for a real fishing trip with someone who knows what they're doing, this is it. Already looking forward to the next one.
