Sandy Hook, New Jersey - Saltwater Fishing Report
Flynns Knoll & Breezy Point NY
Between the weather, bad seas and hectic schedule, trying to steal a day out on the water this time of year is getting tricky.
Just do it, book your trip now and
join Capt. Paul for a half a day and nail some Albies on the fly or with Light spinning tackle.
Bring your "A" game, cause sometimes you can barely get off a single backcast before these fish split.
We have a leaning post on the bow that comes in really handy when we are chasing these fast moving schools of False Albacore, Bonito and spanish mackeral.
These fish usually stay around until Columbus day but they tend to get more finicky as time goes on...

Bio: My name is Capt. Paul Eidman, I grew up fishing with my father and grandfather out on Long Island, we fished both the North and South Shores for blues, bass, sharks and everything else that swims. I was transplanted here in New Jersey back in the ‘70’s,
I quickly adapted to my new waters and have a very diverse fresh and saltwater angling background. I am eager to show you some of the techniques and tricks specific to these local waters that are acquired with years of fishing experience.
Since 1991, our company, Reel Therapy has become diverse as well. We offer personalized, guided fishing trips for the beginner or advanced angler aboard our 20’ Light Tackle guide boat. Most trips are with 2-3 anglers and are 6 hours or so long and leave from a variety of ports depending upon the time of year. We trailer our boat closer to the fish to maximize your fishing time.
We specialize in saltwater fly fishing and light tackle sport fishing for Stripers, Bluefish, Weakfish, False Albacore and more.
We have expanded our services by offering experienced anglers trips by fishing kayak as well. You and several of your fishing buddies could enjoy a day paddling and fishing areas that rarely see any angling pressure at all.
During the summer and fall, we also offer group kayak ecotours. This is a great opportunity to bring along your non fishing friends and explore the estuaries and backwaters of Central NJ.
Whatever your outdoor interests may be, REEL THERAPY will put together a trip just for you!
