Pez Machine Sportfishing Charters - Barnegat Light, New Jersey

Welcome to the new home of Pez Machine Sportfishing!

Located in Barnegat Light, New Jersey, on the north end of Long Beach Island, Pez Machine Sportfishing offers you access to one of the finest charter boats in New Jersey. Whether it's helping your children catch their first Striped Bass, watching 4th of July fireworks from the water, or spending 30 hours offshore in pursuit of Tuna, Marlin, and other pelagic species, we will help you achieve your goal. Whether you are new to fishing or an offshore veteran, the crew at Pez Machine Sportfishing looks forward to putting you on the fish!

In April and May we begin our New Jersey charter fishing season in pursuit of Striped Bass. The coastal waters off Long Beach Island and Island Beach, New Jersey provide anglers with some of the best Striped Bass fishing on the East Coast. Charters will spend the day trolling, jigging, or live-bait fishing within three miles of the beach chasing trophy-sized Stripers.

June typically marks the beginning of the offshore canyon season and it continues well into November. Departing from Barnegat Inlet, the Pez Machine will run 75 to 95+ nautical miles to the canyons along the edge of the continental shelf in search of Tuna, Marlin, Swordfish, Wahoo and Mahi-Mahi. The Pez Machine has the range to fish the following canyons: Block, Dip, Hudson, Berkeley, Toms, Carteret, Lindenkohl, Spencer, Wilmington, Baltimore, Poormans and South Poormans.

November and December mark the return of the Striped Bass as they migrate south along the East Coast. Once again, we will offer trips targeting this popular game fish until we head south for the winter.

If you need lodging while fishing on Long Beach Island, please contact us as we have weekly rentals available throughout the summer. These rental properties can be seen here.

Without a doubt we've seen the most consistent bass fishing most of us have experienced and today was no exception. It didn't take long to get into fish and before we knew it the stripers were boiling all around us. We limited out in short time before switching over to catch and...

Left the dock early in slick calm conditions and quickly got into bass blitzing on sand eels. The Phil Shrode charter quickly limited out with jigs and soft plastics and continued to release fish until they'd had enough. Back at the dock there were a couple of blades that would...
