Reel Reaction Sportfishing, LLC, based in Barnegat, New Jersey, provides light-tackle bay and inshore fishing charters for groups of up to six people. The trips focus on fishing areas such as Barnegat Bay, Long Beach Island, and nearby inshore and wreck locations. Targeted species include striped bass, fluke, bluefish, weakfish, and blowfish, using techniques such as light tackle, jigging, live bait, and artificial lures. Wreck and reef trips offer opportunities to catch sea bass, tautog, fluke, ling, and cod in nearshore waters, with peak seasons running through spring, summer, and fall.
Captain Brett Taylor, who holds a U.S. Coast Guard 6-person OUPV coastal license, leads all trips. With over 18 years of experience fishing in Barnegat Bay and the surrounding ocean waters, he specializes in targeting fluke and striped bass along with other inshore species. In addition to running fishing charters, he is a member of the Outdoor Writers Association of America and contributes a weekly column to On The Water magazine.
Trips are designed for different fishing styles and seasonal opportunities. Inshore and bay charters target striped bass, fluke, bluefish, weakfish, and blowfish, with techniques including live bait, jigging, and artificial lures. Wreck and reef fishing trips focus on sea bass, tautog, fluke, ling, and cod in nearshore locations. Striped bass charters run during the spring and fall migrations, using live bait, trolling, casting, and jigging. Family-friendly blowfish and bottom fishing trips are available in the summer, targeting blowfish, kingfish, and spot. Special inshore bluefin tuna trips in late summer and fall focus on bluefin tuna, bonito, and false albacore, using trolling, chunking, and jigging methods. Custom private charters can also be arranged to meet specific fishing interests.
Fishing trips take place aboard the Jenny Lynn, a 23-foot semi-custom Parker Sport Cabin powered by a 250HP Yamaha 4-stroke engine. This vessel is built for stability in rough waters while also allowing access to the shallow areas of Barnegat Bay. Outfitted with multiple sonar and GPS units, a marine VHF radio, and a 24-mile radar system, the boat meets all U.S. Coast Guard safety requirements and carries a McMurdo GPS 406-MHz EPIRB. It can accommodate up to six people.
