As this strange 2020 nears an end, Capt Bob and the Gambler Crew want to send warm thanks to all our patrons. Thank you for your patience as we made some substantial changes in our way of doing business. In fact, many of our customers liked the changes so much, that we may have a new blueprint going forward. I pray that you all stay safe and healthy into the New Year. The Gambler will plan to fish every day through the end of December –and perhaps into January. Please keep an eye on our site. And thank you again.
Capt Bob and Crew
The Gambler’s 14 Hour Cod and Wreck Trips are a terrific way to shake off Cabin Fever. Cod, porgies and hake inhabit old, sunken wrecks and rock piles off the Jersey coast.
Our business has been family-owned and operated since 1949. The Gambler’s friendly, experienced captains and crew are happy to assist both beginners and experts. Located in Point Pleasant Beach, with close proximity to Brielle, Atlantic Highlands, Barnegat Light, and South Amboy, we welcome and encourage families and children to join us on our fishing excursions for the adventure of a lifetime! Our customers’ safety, satisfaction, boat cleanliness – and of course, catching fish – are our main priorities!
I took my daughter and grandson on a charter. Arrived early as directed and given gear and instruction. The crew was capable, kind, patient and very helpful. Caught mostly sea bass (5 keepers). We loved the whole experience!
– Sharon T. | TripAdvisorSailed one morning with my two teenage daughters. Lots of people were catching "doormat" size fluke. We had some shorts that went back, some sea Robin and a mackerel. Caught a fair amount, lots of meat for dinner that night!
– Peter J. | TripAdvisorThe crew and captains were all top-notch. They were there when you needed them and were always happy to help. I caught my first tuna ever on this boat and what an amazing experience. Thanks for an experience I’ll never forget!
– George H. | GoogleI had a great experience with Gambler a few days ago during an offshore sea bass fishing trip. They know where to find the fish. The mates are extremely nice and are always there to help. I will definitely be back next year!
