Fishing Report – Reel Reaction Charters

It’s been quite awhile since I posted a report on FHQ as I just haven’t had much time do to fishing nearly everyday. Our Facebook page (Reel Reaction Sportfishing) does have up-to-date reports daily, if you “Like” it – you’ll get them.

Fishing has been “on-fire” in the ocean and the bay/inlet for Summer Flounder aka Fluke. In the ocean, we have been fishing a variety of structure and sometimes with few boaters around to put 5 to 10 keepers per trip in the box. Most of the action has been on bucktail and big Gulp baits. In the bay, it’s been more of a live or fresh bait kind of bite. But we are still boxing 3 to 4 keepers per bay/inlet trips. The last few trips have been averaging at least one big fish from 5 to 8 pounds.

I have started booking Striped Bass trips for October and November, and we are participating again this year in the NJ Striped Bass Bonus Permit which allows one 24-inch to 27.99in bass per person to be harvested until the tags run out.

I have minimal openings through the end of the Fluke season and if interested, I would highly recommend ocean trips for these. Since I’m back at school I can run weekdays 230 to 730pm or weekends.

If interested in booking a charter, book our site (reelreactioncharters.com) or call/text 609-290-7709. As always, we use the highest quality gear and everything is included: gear, tackle, fish-cleaning, and ICE! It’s “no worries” fishing. Just come aboard and FISH.

We are in deep!

The flooding on Long Beach Island was a real problem this morning. We had one car swamped out and left in front of the shop.
