Manasquan Fishing Club est. 1955

Membership

Join the Manasquan Fishing Club

On the water since 1955 — a club of anglers who come to learn, to fish, and to give back to the sport and the shore.

Learn

Monthly meetings

Guest speakers on tactics, conservation, and boating safety — new techniques every month, from anglers who actually fish them.

Fish

Tournaments & trips

Club tournaments, charter trips at member rates, youth clinics, and casual outings up and down the Jersey Shore.

Give back

Conservation

Members serve with the NJ Marine Fisheries Council, the JCAA, and the RFA. Your dues support fisheries advocacy and the next generation of anglers.

Membership has its benefits

Real-time intel, straight from the water

Members get into the club’s private GroupMe — a running feed of where they’re biting, what’s working, and what’s blowing through, posted by members fishing up and down the shore. A taste of a normal week:

SW
Sea bass lights out on the Sea Girt Reef — caught and kept a limit.❤️ 4
BF
Keeper bass off Long Branch today — everything else 36″ to one about 50″. Saw tuna just east of the Sea Girt reef.👍 5
LA
Fished Manasquan to Sea Girt this AM — loads of bunker tight to the beach.
FT
Bunker tight to the beaches off Belmar earlier. Definitely bass with them.❤️ 2
