2012 NJ Saltwater Recreational Registry Program

Fishing season is just agound the corner. All anglers fishing in saltwater over the age of 16 need to register for the free saltwater fishing license in NJ. However, any person fishing on a party/charter boat DOES NOT need a license as they are covered under the captains license. The fines start at $300 for the 1st offense.There is a movement to lower them but make sure you have it. They ARE enforcing it. http://www.nj.gov/dep/saltwaterregistry/index.html

Middle of the winter or prime time fishing season

At 2:30 am this morning as I shoveled the snow of the truck I was wondering what the hell I was doing going to the tackle shop in the middle of the winter at this hour of the day.  Then it occurred to me even with sea bass being closed for many of us that have jobs that tack so much of the fishing time during the spring summer and fall months this is prime time fishing season for us.  The cod and tog fishing has been unreal and to day is the first 12 hour cod trip of the season for the starfish..  So get some buddy’s together and jump on your local party boat or get that boat out of the yard on a nice day this winter and experience  winter fishing at the south jersey shore. We are open nice days in the AM and the weekends.  Who knows maybe the mackerel will show up this year maybe this will be an epic late winter winter flounder bite.

Lisa G's Big TOG

Tog fishing has still been GREAT check out this whooper 15 ponder caught by Lisa G from NY aboard the Starfish party boat hear in Sea Isle City.  With the colder whether approaching Tog will move farther off shore and be come sluggish and a little more difficult to catch so get out fishing wile its still GOOD.  The starfish is also doing a Cod trip leaving at 5Am Jan 21 the fee is $100.00.  The days the starfish goes fishing we will be open from 7Am till 8Am and we are still open on the weekends.  Contact the Starfish at (609) 263 – 3800 or  www..starfishboats.com
