What's Biting at Pavonia
Activity ratings reflect typical feeding seasons — not legal seasons. Regulations, closures, and size/bag limits change; always check current NJ Fish & Wildlife marine regulations before keeping any fish.
Striped Bass (Atlantic)
Morone saxatilis
Season: Spring and fall migrations; summer in New England (check regs)
Baits: Live or chunk bunker (menhaden), Clams, Live eels
Stripers feed where moving water pushes bait against structure: inlet mouths, jetty tips, bridge shadows, rips and points. Fish the stronger part of the tide, and dawn, dusk and night, especially in summer. Chunks or clams on the bottom from the beach, eels or swimbaits at night along rocks. Circle hooks on bait; release fish carefully, most of the catch goes back.
Weakfish (Gray Trout)
Cynoscion regalis
Season: Spring and fall; numbers are low in most years (check regs)
Baits: Soft-plastic shad on a jig head, Peeler crab, Squid strips
Fish bays, inlets and channel edges, dusk and night especially, with a jig or bait worked slowly near the bottom. Weakfish get their name from a soft mouth, so a light drag and a net help.
Summer Flounder (Fluke)
Paralichthys dentatus
Season: Late spring through early fall (check regs)
Baits: Squid strips, Live killifish (minnows), Gulp! swimming mullet
Drift or slowly retrieve a bait along sandy and gravel bottom near channel edges, inlets and drop-offs. Moving water is everything: fluke face into the current and ambush bait, so a slack tide usually means a slow bite. Bounce the bottom and give a second before setting the hook.
Atlantic Croaker
Micropogonias undulatus
Season: Late spring through summer
Baits: Bloodworms, Squid, Shrimp
A bottom fish that runs in schools over sand and mud, especially in the Chesapeake and its rivers. Two-hook bottom rig, small hooks, bait on the bottom. Evenings and the hours around a tide change are usually best from piers and shorelines.
