Welcome to SJ Quest!
Your drama free, outdoor resource for South Jersey and the world,
...but mostly fishing.



The NJ State and world record Marine Striped Bass tipped the scales at an amazing 78 pounds 8 oz.

Al McReynolds pulled this World Record striper from the Atlantic fishing at night off the Vermont Ave. jetty in Atlantic City following days of September Nor'easter storming in 1982. The fish was taken on a 5 1/2-inch long Rebel Black-back silver minnow plug on 20-pound test line. It took one hour and 40 minutes to land the fish on the slippery jetty. The fish measured 53 inches in length with a 34 1/2 inch girth, and was estimated to be 20 - 22 years old.


The largest striped bass ever recorded was a 125 pound female from North Carolina, 1891.



Conservation

Bring your own cloth or fabric bags when you shop!

Going Green Bag

If you grocery shop once a week, in five years you’ll have kept about 250 to 1,000 grocery bags out of our landfills. When one ton of plastic bags is reused or recycled, the energy equivalent of 11 barrels of oil is saved!

Yak Attack
The Lure of Saltwater Kayak Fishing
Illustrated by SJ Quest's own Adam Monacelli | Download the PDF

I created this reference page for the Courier-Post's Brainstorm section back in 2006 and I think most of the information is still somewhat current. It's based on a lightweight fishing platform from Hobie and is basically a pimped out kayak ready to hit the back bays and tributaries. Download the pdf file and check out the detail of the Shimano Sustain 4000 reel and the Boga Grip. Sweet, if I may toot my own horn. Enjoy!
