Jim caught a 7.5lb doormat
We got quite lucky with weather this Memorial Day Weekend at Captain Mikes. Anglers were able to enjoy Great Bay without worrying about any storm cells rolling through.
Jim (pictured above) caught a 26″ fluke on his trip out on his rental boat Sunday afternoon. Surprisingly enough Jim was fishing right out front of Captain Mikes Marina using gulp!
Plenty of fluke fisherman went home happy after fishing the Great Bay this weekend.
Beware of Terrapins Crossing Great Bay Boulevard
Slow down! The Terrapins are nesting again
You might want to slow down during your next trip down Seven Bridges Road. Several volunteers of The Great Bay Terrapin Project reported terrapin turtles crossing the boulevard over the weekend.
During May and June, many pregnant females search for safe places to lay their eggs. These females lay their eggs in a sand/gravel mixture where it is easy for them to dig and cover their eggs, like sandy dunes and in scrub-shrub habitat along road edges.
Unfortunately, many females are accidentally killed motorists each year. The Great Bay Terrapin Project has helped raise awareness and protected countless Terrapin turtles by placing signs and raising fences along the road to prevent them from crossing.
If you ever happen to see a Terrapin crossing the road, please move them to the other side of the road that they were walking towards.
Captain Mike’s is a proud partner of The Great Bay Terrapin Project. The project is entirely funded by donations, if you wish to volunteer or donate to help the cause you can sign up here.
Jim’s Seem To Catch More Fish
Jimmy Allen caught a 24″
If your name is Jim and you were fishing in Great Bay over Memorial Day Weekend, there’s a good chance you caught a doormat fluke! If not, sorry but you are the weakest Jim!
Jimmy Allen managed to catch this beautiful fluke right off the Fish Factory, sorry if you were trying to keep that a secret Jim!
Plenty of fish were caught by rental boats this weekend. Scroll down to check out more photos from the long weekend. It’s great that summer is finally here. Get after it, get geared up, 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!
When do they stop, I want to do some crabbing. Was near mill creek off rt 9 last week forgot one back window was open. OMG THEY KNEW 😆
Great one
Just remember if it wasn't for green heads no-see-ums and high taxes everybody would want to live here LOL

Maybe stop banding them? Disturbing them maybe an issue?

🎣 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! 🌊🎣
Sweet …. Good job guys 👏
Very cool 😎
Nice!!!
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! 🎣🦀🚤
