Charter Boats sailing out of South Jersey Marina are having very good results with inshore fishing; Bluefish, Croaker, Weakfish, Kingfish and Flounder continue to top the frequently caught list.

On the other hand, offshore trips are even more successful; the blue waters of our canyons are really heating up. Ten offshore trips were run this week and every one had a nice catch of Bluefin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna and Dolphin.

The inshore fishing at South Jersey Marina continues to be dominated by the run of Bluefish being caught near the reef. All the charter boats that target these fish come home with a full box. The Fluke, Kingfish, Weakfish and Croakers have also made an appearance in the Delaware Bay.

The offshore fishing has really improved this week. Both Blue and White Marlin have been released in our canyons, notably the Spencer Canyon. We also weighed a 148 pound Big Eye Tuna that was caught in the Spencer.

This is about the mid-way point in our season and the fishing is bound to improve as we get into August and September. To experience the excitement of salt water sport fishing, merely call 609-884-3800 and reserve a Charter Boat from the uniquely, well qualified Murderer's Row Fleet. Whether it is inshore or offshore, there's a treat in store for all anglers, young and old.

South Jersey Marina held a very successful Mid-Atlantic Tuna Tournament during this past week. Forty four boats competed and all 26 winning categories were filled for a total payout of $195,965. Top honors was a 202 pound Bluefin Tuna. The second heaviest fish winner was a 188 pound Bluefin. The two heaviest Yellowfin Tuna weighed 88 and 72 pounds. All of the details of the winners and hundreds of pictures can be seen on our website.

Our Charter Fleet continues to limit out on every trip with the school of Bluefish near our reef. We also saw flags indicating Marlin being released in our Canyons this week. The water temp. out there is as warm as it has been all year and that signals Marlin, Tuna, Wahoo and Dolphin. So we now have it all; a great offshore fishery and our ever popular inshore Bluefish action.

Our Charter Fleet is ready to fish…call 609-884-3800 for reservations.
