    Nice flounder
    Dan N.

    Capt Tom is a real gentleman and provided a great trip. His crew are very helpful, too. Very nice, clean, solid fishing boat. Obviously well-taken care of by people who are serious about their business. My son and I took the afternoon ride, which entails a 30 min sailing from the marina to the fishing grounds just around the Sandy Hook point. From there we fished about 6-10 different spots, Capt Tom constantly trying to put us on the fish. He definitely put in the effort for us to find quality flounder. The main catch was Sea Robins, a rather unattractive and weird looking thing that can be eaten, but many were tossed back. Second catches in terms of numbers were small dogfish / sharks, dozens of them landed and tossed back. Many short (smaller than legal sized) flounders landed and returned. I was lucky enough to catch the largest fish of the day, which one of the mates kindly filleted and bagged for me. Tackle rental is $5 and you will pay $3 if you break off your hook, sinker and leader rig. Overall it's about $65 / pp. Quite an entertainment bargain for five solid hours on the water. Advice: bring sunscreen and a cooler with drinks and grub. Highly recommended. Pay in cash on board.

    My friend highly recommended this boat so I decided to try it and so glad I did! Captain Tom, Joe and Sonny were so sweet, and looked after me. They keep the boat super clean and we moved around a few times instead of staying in just one place when things got quiet. I'll be back once porgy season starts! Thanks guys!

    Best day

    Amazing fishing charter. All the boats line up and stand outside to get passengers. I wouldn't go to any other charter but this one. It was my daughters first time out (she's 12) and first mate Patrick took care of me and my daughter. We were totally unprepared but they had it all. It was a great crowd of all ages. Capt. Tom took us around to many spots if we weren't catching anything. My daughter caught her first fluke. The boat and bathrooms were super clean and the staff was friendly and safe. Tip the crew in the beginning they deserve it. They will help you bait reel untangle bug spray sunblock you and filet your fish and even send you home with fish you didn't catch. Hands down awesome crew.

    It's Ben with the big one

    See all

    A GREAT party boat with equally GREAT deck hands and a TERRIFIC Captain to boot. I have gone out…read morenumerous times on the Sea Tiger. The last time was yesterday---July 25, 2024. Captain Hal put us on the fish, and we had a good day: I had four (4) shorts including a 17 and 1/2" fluke, a sea robin, a dogfish, and a KEEPER fluke. My fishing friend Gary caught at least 6 sea robins, a number of short fluke, and also a KEEPER. Deckhands John and Chuck could not do enough to make your trip a pleasant and memorable one. They netted the fish, undid line tangles, and provided helpful tips. I STRONGLY recommend Sea Tiger for your saltwater party boat fishing. Captain Hal is an EXCELLENT skipper. He will frequently come down and help the deckhands when the fish are really active. In addition to John and Chuck, Hal has a couple of deckhands---Mike and Jeremy---who were not working on July 25. But we have been on other trips with the Sea Tiger when Mike and Jeremy WERE on duty. Like John and Chuck, Mike and Jeremy are VERY hard workers and know their craft. In short, the Sea Tiger is a well-run boat from Captain Hal, all deckhands, good accommodations, good bait provided, and good fishing tackle if you need it. Go with the Sea Tiger.

    Horrible trip didn't stop to fish for more then a hr first spot lol you could have casted off the…read morebeach literally! one keeper fluke on the whole boat , very few shorts, no action here and to pay $ to fish spots you can cast from the beach is just a waste of time and money would never do this again , I got out on boats 3 days a week and this is by far the worse experience there was no vibe on the boat everyone seemed pissed just a bad trip altogether if I could give this boat less then one start I would!
