Belmar waters offer excellent inshore and nearshore fishing opportunities year-round. Spring and fall provide the most consistent action as baitfish migrations draw gamefish close to shore. Summer trips focus on structure fishing around wrecks and reefs in 40-80 feet of water. Wind conditions from the southwest create the calmest seas, while northeast winds can make for choppy conditions.
Water temperatures range from 45°F in winter to 75°F in summer, influencing fish behavior and feeding patterns. Early morning departures typically produce the best results before boat traffic increases. We monitor weather forecasts closely and reschedule trips when conditions become unsafe for fishing.
