Top Fishing Spots

Whether you're looking to catch Flounder in the Lakes Bay or go after big Tuna out past the Canyons, you’ll definitely find something that suits your preferences.

Inshore

Margate City’s inshore waters are ideal for introductory level fishing trips. Its calm and protected waters host a variety of species, making it a perfect place to learn new techniques and solidify your skills.

Places like Absecon, Reeds, and Lakes Bay are prime locations for inshore fishing. These sheltered waters are home to a wide range of species, including Flounder, Weakfish, Striped Bass, Spotted Seatrout, and Bluefish. The best part about these trips is that it doesn’t take long to find the right spot. A four-hour trip is more than enough time to locate fish and get hooked, making it a great option for a family trip with the kids.

Reefs and Wrecks

If you’re looking to explore the deeper waters of the Atlantic, Margate fishing charters offer lots of nearshore and offshore trips as well.

The Atlantic City Reef is located about 14 miles off the coast of Margate. This reef system produces an abundance of aquatic life, making it an excellent place for bottom fishing. Your top-target species here are Black Seabass, Stripers, Fluke, Tautog, and many more.

If you head 14 miles further, you’ll have the chance to fish over a sunken WWII oil tanker, known as the 28 Mile Wreck. This area is a popular fishing spot for those looking to target big game species such as Yellowfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Amberjack, and various Shark species. A summer trip out here can reap lots of rewarding catches. If you’re a deep sea fanatic, it’d be a shame not to check this spot out!

The Canyons

If you’re planning on taking a trip out to the Canyons, be sure to set enough time aside. Captains recommend at least 16 hours for a successful trip. Overnight charters are a great option and Margate’s got a large fleet to choose from. Out here, you can expect to target Blue and White Marlin, Bluefin Tuna, Swordfish, Mako Shark, and Wahoo, just to name a few.
