If, however, the Tournament Committee deems that the inorganic material was intentionally introduced to the fish after that fish was caught and prior to the weighing of that fish, additional action may be taken including, but not limited to, the disqualification of the fish and angler.

The Jersey Shore Beach N Boat Fishing Tournament is a season-long, inshore, multi-species fishing tournament that challenges anglers of all skill levels to compete for cash and prizes. It will run annually from April 1 through November 30 and is open to anglers of all ages.

The mission is to see who catches the largest fish in New Jersey within each eligible species category. We know it could be the seasoned professional who fishes everyday from an expensive sport boat or it might be the little girl next door who threw a line off the beach while on her summer vacation. Whoever it might be, this Tournament is going to find out!

The Tournament is fun for the whole family and is open to everyone. You can fish from the beach or a boat or a kayak, private boat, party boat, charter boat, your deck or an inner tube in the bay or the ocean. Prizes will be awarded for the largest catches for each recognized species for the span of the Tournament and for special segments during the main Tournament.

Enjoy fishing freedom anywhere along the New Jersey shore in marine waters from Raritan Bay to Delaware Bay. Visit one of our official tackle shops in most towns along the coast including Sandy Hook, Shark River, Manasquan, Seaside, Barnegat Light, Beach Haven, Atlantic City and Cape May.

The Jersey Shore Beach N Boat Fishing Tournament will donate a portion of the proceeds to the Fisheries Conservation Trust (FCT), a non-profit, 501(c) (3) organization created to help identify and explore issues of concern to the conservation, development, and wise utilization of coastal recreational fisheries resources.

Join us to see if you can catch the largest fish in New Jersey. See ya at the beach!
