Neptune's offshore waters provide excellent access to both inshore and deep sea fishing opportunities. The continental shelf drops off just miles from shore, creating upwelling currents that attract baitfish and the gamefish that follow them. Our local knowledge of seasonal patterns, structure, and current conditions puts you on fish when others struggle to find action.
Summer months bring warm water species closer to shore, while fall and spring offer some of the year's most consistent fishing as migrating fish move through our waters. The rocky bottom and artificial reefs in our area hold fish year-round, making Neptune an ideal home port for serious anglers.
Neptune's fishing success depends heavily on weather, tides, and seasonal migrations. Early morning trips often produce the best results, especially during summer when afternoon winds can pick up. The area's proximity to the Hudson Canyon and other deep water structure means we can adjust our fishing strategy based on current conditions and target species activity.
