Depth Collector

Depth Collector Hey guys, my name is Erik I’ve been fishing NJ my whole life and even ran fishing charters here for 4 years. All gear and bait is provided.

I am now focusing on just having fun fishing, diving, and chasing the biggest creatures the ocean has to offer. Whether you are looking to do some all-day fishing or you just want to go out for a few hours of fun on the water, I’ve got you covered. With options ranging from 4 to 8 hours with bay and ocean options, there is surely a trip to meet your needs. All you need to bring is food, drinks, an

d appropriate clothing! I offer a wide variety of charter trips that target a large majority of native and migratory fish in both the bay and out in the ocean, which appeals to beginner anglers and advanced anglers alike. I captain a 24 foot HydraSport center console that is equipped with more than the required amount of safety gear, private bathroom, Minnkota trolling motor (which makes wreck fishing quick and easy), satellite communications, radio, and all of the fishing equipment you will need for your trip. The hull of the boat is in a deep V, which ensures that the ride stays smooth even if the weather becomes unfair.

Thick stripers and even thicker fog!

Poor conditions can't stop us when this killer fishery is running out of time. On this trip, we head out into the thick Spring fog off the coast of New Jerse...

Another stellar season in the books for . So many smiles and so many fish this year, I always love looking back at all the memories that’ve been made aboard. We’re gonna be trying out something new for 2025, keeping the boat on the trailer so we can run trips from north to south; wherever the fishing’s best! I’ll still be taking some advanced bookings with my regular customers, but I’ll be suspending most long-term booking just for this season to see how it goes focusing more on shorter notice open boat trips either out of Raritan Bay, Atlantic City, or Cape May.

I’d also like to thank all the amazing local tackle shops for supplying us with all of our bait and tackle needs throughout the year RipTide Bait and Tackle Tight Lines B&T North Absecon Bay Sportsman Center.

Awesome night last night, crew got tight on a giant bluefin and proceeded to fight him for 4 1/2 hours. The fish was an absolute tank, probably north of 80”. We had it to the boat several times but it was obviously too big, so we let it go. We hooked into a different fish as soon as we put lines out which ate a RipTide Bait and Tackle ballyhoo on a pink head but unfortunately broke it off. We then hooked into this giant right before sunset on a RonZ.

As always, we had an amazing trip with the Philly PD and FD; these guys are a blast! We released an over striper in the AM that crushed a top water plug and hammered a limit of decent tog with Absecon Bay Sportsman Center green crabs. Unfortunately, the wind continues to blow, canceling or rescheduling most ocean trips. Availability 👇🏼
