Why tide-based trips matter

You pick the day. SJS picks the bite window.

Shark fishing is not a fixed-slot, hope-for-the-best trip. Tide, bait, light, and conditions shape the bite. SJS Charters schedules around those windows to put more effort into timing the trip right.

Some trips can produce fast action. Some are slower because fishing is never guaranteed. The goal is always the same: use local shark-fishing experience to give your crew the best possible shot at a serious fight.

Meet Captain Gavin

Built from years of chasing the fish that kept breaking the tackle.

Gavin started flounder fishing the back bays about seven years ago. After repeatedly hooking something that broke his tackle, he upgraded gear, kept trying, and finally landed a big shark.

That fight changed the direction. Shark fishing became the main focus, and the next few years were spent taking friends, coworkers, and friends-of-friends out while dialing in the local bite.

Perfect for

Families, groups, and Atlantic City weekends.

FAQ

What to know before you book.

What time do trips leave?

You pick a day, then SJS Charters recommends the best morning, afternoon, evening, or night window based on tides and conditions.

Are shark trips catch-and-keep?

These trips are catch-focused and experience-focused. The goal is the fight, photos, videos, and safe handling, not filling a cooler for dinner.

Is shark fishing guaranteed?

No fishing trip can guarantee a catch. Some trips are action-packed, and some are slower. SJS Charters plans around the tide to improve the shot at a strong bite.

How do deposits work?

A $100 deposit is preferred to reserve your date. Call or text to confirm the current payment option and remaining balance details.

What happens with bad weather?

Unsafe weather will be handled directly with your captain. SJS Charters will work with you on a safer fishing window when conditions do not cooperate.
