Where to fish & or crab while here

  

One of the questions most asked is " WHERE TO FISH & CRAB IN THE BAY"?

​Bay Fishing & Crabbing Information
 

Best Time for Fishing or Crabbing the Bay is High Tide
 

Barnegat Light;
 

Barnegat Inlet jetty is a great fishing spot, but not safe for young children. There is a bathroom in the Lighthouse parking lot, and benches running along the concrete jetty.
West 5th St. off of Broadway is a good fishing spot for young and old. At the end of the street you can park along the side of the road. There is a sea wall-walkway that runs about 1/2 mile to Andy’s gift shop. Occasional benches line the way. It is a great place for tots to catch their first fish! For bigger fish you will need a long net to reach the water.  It’s  also fun watching all the boats going in and out!
 

Harvey Cedars;
 

Sunset Park (West Salem Ave entrance) is a wonderful spot for fishing and crabbing! There is a fishing pier.  A gazebo and bathrooms are available, also a park with swings and other fun things to entertain children. There is also plenty of parking!

Surf City;
 

Many streets in town have a bench at the bay end, with a small sea wall that allow some fishing and crabbing. Parking is limited at most. Some of the streets are 24th, 21st, 18th, 13, 11th & 7th streets.
Surf City boat ramp on Division St. is another spot. There are benches, and a gazebo.
 

Just beware of boats launching on the ramp. There is a park for the kids to play.

Ship Bottom;
 

West 3rd & 4th streets are a hot spot fishing and crabbing. There is a sea wall where you can cast out to deep water where many boats fish. It has benches, a gazebo, and limited parking.
 

If you are going for bigger fish a long net will be necessary to reach the water.
