AS the weather continues to warm, more people can be found on beaches and in the waters off New Jersey fishing.
Like all coastline states, New Jersey has regulations specific to size, seasons, possession and trip limits, quotas, tagging, reporting and more. Be sure to learn the regulations and responsibilities that apply to your interests and activities.
Marine Fish of New Jersey
There are approximately 450 species of vertebrate wildlife which can be found within the Garden State, along with 85 freshwater fish. Our bays, estuaries and marine waters can be home to 28 marine mammals and 336 marine finfish at some point during the year. This is an exceptional number of species for a state as small as New Jersey. The majority of the information in the tables below was compiled through the work of Ken Able (Able, 1992) and lists marine fish which can be found in our waters.
