Fishing Reports

Quick Weekend Report: Nice Fluke

Ken Counts caught a nice 5.3 lb Fluke

This weekend’s report kicks off with Ken and his jumbo 5.3 lb fluke.

Many rental customers reported back limiting out on fluke, mainly fishing in close within great bay. Although some customers are unhappy throwing back the extra 18″ overs “for someone else’s dinner” as Ken Counts put it on our Facebook page. 

Just in case you needed a refresher on regulations for 2022, we got you covered.

New Fluke Regulations Facing Crisitism

Moreover, many critics of the new fluke regulations believe once summer gets in the swing of things more anglers will begin to report smaller fish outside the slot range. It will be interesting to see fluke catch size throughout the summer.

However, at Captain Mike’s were a glass half full kind of a bunch especially with Great Bay’s quick tide turnover, giving anglers plenty of opportunities.

Speaking of the bay, Bluefish were caught caught in Great Bay this weekend. It was reported cocktail size blue fish were wandering into the bay from the inlet over the weekend.

For more reports, scroll down below to see our Facebook feed. Plenty of fish being caught in Great Bay. Call (609) 296-4406 to book your rental or to inquire about bait and tackle in-stock.

Finally, lets get after it and let’s go fishing!

Just a little fly by humour courtesy of a friend. 🤣. These flies however, are NOT 🚫 our friends.

Please note, no flies were harmed during this photo shoot, but all flies need to just die already!

🎣 Bay Report: Success! 🐟
Bob and Lisa McGinnis found out the fluke were in a very cooperative mood! They headed out from Captain Mike’s Marina and returned with a pair of beautiful keepers and smiles that say it all.
Some people tell fish stories… Bob and Lisa just hold them up for the camera. 😄
Congratulations on a great day on the bay! Thanks for sharing your catch, and we can’t wait to see who’s reeling in the next doormat! 🌊🎣

It was always known as "the fish factory" as long as I can remember and that's from the '60's to this day

I thought it was a greenhead factory. 🪰

You can probably still see it from 7 bridges

The Stink House. As a kid growing up in Barnegat I remember the trains running north full of fertilizer.

When it was operational it was common to call it the stink house. My grandfather had a house on the bay in Beach Haven. There was no explanation needed when we had a Southern wind.

Made chum I think

Heard there were many dangerous whirlpools out there be careful

Clear day you can see it from Oyster Creek restaurant.

Wanted to visit that place

Could someone show where this was on the bay?

Good fishing

The old Stinky

Awesome – I just photographed and posted about this last week!

Gene & i used to go out by there to fish boy I miss that part of our relationship.

Where can you see this ? Love to be up closer to read it….

Justin Halt

Cool!

Data center inbound lol

Thanks John , that’s cool

🎣 Another great day on the water at Captain Mike’s Marina! 🌊🦀
Nick and his fishing partner took one of our rental boats out today and came back with 2 keeper fluke and about 10 beautiful blue crabs!
Looks like dinner is officially covered… and tomorrow’s lunch might be too! 😄
Nothing beats a day on the bay with tight lines, full crab baskets, and plenty of smiles.
Ready to make your own fishing story? Stop by Captain Mike’s Marina in Little Egg Harbor and rent a boat. The fluke are biting, the crabs are crawling, and the next photo could be yours! 🎣🦀🚤
