There's something satisfying about hooking a Blackfish and trying to bring it to the surface before it disappears back into the wreck. Join Captain Robbie and the Smokin Reel Charters crew as you explore New Jersey's coastal fishing grounds, where underwater structures provide shelter for these strong, stubborn fish. Unlike trips that focus on catching several species, this outing is all about targeting Blackfish, also known as Tautog, and learning how to handle their powerful runs. You'll anchor near wrecks, lower your bait toward the bottom, and stay ready for a sudden tug. Captain Robbie and his crew will share practical tips on bait placement, recognizing bites, and keeping fish away from the structure. Whether you're new to Blackfish fishing or looking to improve your technique, this trip offers a rewarding challenge with every bite.

Captain Robbie handles the fishing preparations, providing quality rods, bait, and chum to help attract fish and keep you ready for action. Whether you're chasing your first Tuna or hoping to land another, the captain's guidance helps you stay focused when the reel starts running.
