South Jersey Striper Safaris

Join Captain Dave Showell on his 20-foot Scout 175HP Suzuki as he guides you through South Jersey marshes and inlets in pursuit the iconic striped bass. Fitting up to four people per trip, Captain Dave stays attentive and puts his decades of experience to put everyone on fish. From dragging live spot near sod banks to tossing poppers and paddle tails to entice an aggressive strike, Captain Dave always knows how to dial in the action and find where the stripers are biting.

Not Just Striper

As the water warms and the stripers begin to slow down, you might think Captain Dave would too—but he doesn’t. He’s still out there, chasing striped bass well into July. By then, he’s often pulling a keeper summer flounder from the flats, adding them to the ice chest with his go-to rig and a well-placed Gulp. Captain Dave also keeps plugs and artificials rigged and ready at a moment’s notice for when the gator blues roll in, feeding hard on the bay’s abundant baitfish. There’s no fish that fights harder than an aggressive bluefish, delivering all the excitement you could ask for on the water. No matter when in the season you decide to head out, you can count on Captain Dave to be ready to put his patrons on fish.
