Real-time wind, wave height, water temperature, tides and moon phase for every New Jersey coastal zone — from Raritan Bay to the Hudson Canyon. One verdict. No guesswork.
Shore Report pulls live marine and weather data and distills it into a single score and verdict. No weather app hopping. No deciphering NOAA charts. Just — should you go or not.
From the protected Raritan Bay all the way out to the Hudson Canyon — 90+ miles offshore. Shore Report covers the zones that NJ fishermen actually fish, with notes specific to each one.
Open Conditions Tool →Each species has a separate conditions score based on what actually matters for that fishery. Water temperature thresholds, ideal sea state, and local knowledge — all built in.
New Jersey offers some of the finest fishing on the entire East Coast — from the protected back bays of Little Egg Harbor and Barnegat Bay to the world-class offshore action at the Hudson and Baltimore Canyons. But the conditions along the NJ coast vary dramatically by zone, by season, and by tide. A flat calm at Cape May Inlet can coincide with 4-foot seas at Manasquan Inlet — and neither forecast tells you much about what's happening 90 miles out at the canyons.
Shore Report was built to solve that problem. Instead of bouncing between weather apps, tide charts, and marine forecasts, you get one consolidated score for your specific zone — incorporating wind speed and direction, wave height, swell period, barometric pressure trend, sea surface temperature, moon phase, and tidal timing. For offshore canyon runs, the scoring applies stricter thresholds because conditions that are acceptable nearshore can be genuinely dangerous 60–120 miles from port.
The species-specific reports account for what experienced NJ fishermen already know: fluke fishing at Barnegat Bay requires calm drifting conditions and water temperatures above 60°F, while striped bass fishing at Sandy Hook often improves in rougher conditions with falling pressure before a front. Offshore tuna and mahi at the Hudson Canyon demand near-perfect weather and warm Gulf Stream water above 65°F — and Shore Report checks all of it automatically.
Whether you're planning a fluke trip out of Point Pleasant, targeting stripers at the Shrewsbury Rocks, running to the Poor Man's Canyon for mahi, or making the full overnight run to Wilmington Canyon for swordfish — Shore Report gives you the conditions report your trip depends on.
