Karl McKenna

Member since November 2014 Highlands, United States

Background: Captain Karl McKenna has been fishing all over the Sandy Hook and the Raritan Bay area almost all of his life. He has over 4 decades of experience fishing and diving in the waters of New Jersey. A lifetime of fishing has taught him all the tricks necessary for catching the popular species that stalk these waters. He's also been diving in this area since 1974.
Techniques: I specialize in light tackle fishing for Stripers, Bluefish, Weakfish and Fluke. I am also enthusiastic about Fly-fishing for Stripers and Bluefish

This was a great trip. Captain Karl was instructive and helpful, while letting my son and I enjoy fishing together. More importantly, Captain Karl know where the fish were and we had a great time. At the end of the trip we were both satisfied and were able to have fresh fish for dinner! I would highly recommend this trip for two, you wont regret it.

Thanks for the review. You guys did well in some pretty challenging conditions. I’m glad we finally got into some fish at the end of the day.

Best time and the captain had shown me a few ways to beat sea sickness. Super excited with what we caught. The area is booming with restaurants or bars or ice cream for after the trip. I mean you can’t go wrong at all. 100 stars . The also filet our fish so they are nice and clean.
