What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Belmar, New Jersey for the first time?

Make sure to get a patch or something if you’re not sure you get seasick, bring water the crew told us it helped with it. And just come in and have a great time they told us to “make ourselves at home” don’t be afraid of asking questions they’ll help you out

The inland waters in these parts hold a lot fluke and it never gets rough so if you want a chill day but full of action then this is it with this captain it’s perfect for two people.

Bring snacks, maybe hand soap or sanitizer (man’s room had no soap). If cold and choppy I recommend boots or waders, but in warm or calm days they’re not needed.

Great fishing spot just have to hit the waters at the perfect times of the year to get into the big stuff.

Clam or squid as bait on a hook that’s not too big but not to small with a 6 or more oz sinker at the bottom of your rig

The capt has his spots where the fish are. I went the weather was rainy and cold. Sea was choppy. People in my group was sea sick. Can't really give a honest recommendation

Understand the open water can change in a moments notice and plans may need to be altered.

Look for maybe early June. It was very hot, and with a young kid, it wore on them very fast.

Bring gloves, dressing warm, wearing boots , and Bring a Smile. Oh, ... slow lift to set. Lol.

Check the timing of the migration which changes slightly year to year. Hope for good weather

Very nice place, my first time there and liked the setup. Lots of parking but get there early
