Fishing and the Jersey Shore go together like peanut butter and jelly, and recently one New Jersey town was ranked as one of the best places to fish for 2025!

Now here's the thing, usually when you find a good fishing spot near the Jersey Shore you want to keep it a secret.

But as someone who's always struggling to find a good place to throw out a line, I figured sharing is caring in this situation.

When I go out fishing, it's usually on the Miss Barnegat Light and it's a blast.

But if you're not looking to charter a boat then where do you go?

Surf fishing in Seaside Heights or Seaside Park is always a lot of fun, and Island Beach State Park is also known for its good fishing.

None of those spots though were ranked the best fishing city in Jersey for 2025.

According to Fishing Booker what makes Brick unique is its excellent location along the Jersey Shore.

Brick also has really good striper fishing, and tautog that are a lot of fun to catch.

Since Brick has really great access to the Atlantic Ocean it makes it a great starting off point if you want to head out and do some deep-sea fishing.

The best part about fishing near Brick has to be the post-fishing activities you can partake in.

Brick is located near Point Pleasant and Seaside Heights, so you can spend an evening walking down one of the legendary Jersey Shore boardwalks.

Brick is also home to some pretty great restaurants where you can grab a bite to eat after a long day out on the water.
