“STRIPER SCHOOL” is an immersive, hands-on masterclass designed to take you from an average angler to a trophy hunter. Hosted by the legendary Tackle Box Fishing Co., this experience is built for those ready to catch their personal best Striped Bass.
Experience Highlights
Expert Instruction: Learn directly from Capt. Phil Sciortino Jr., a third-generation fisherman with a lifetime of experience navigating the Jersey Shore and Raritan Bay.
Hands-On Learning: This isn't a lecture; it's a private lesson that covers practical tactics, including proper rigging and bait selection.
"Believe in the Eel": Master the secrets of trophy fishing, specifically using live eels and the specialized "Magic" planer board rods by Magic Tail Outfitters.
Custom Gear Sessions: Includes private shopping sessions at the Tackle Box shop to ensure you are geared up with the exact plugs, lures, and terminal tackle needed for local success.
Targeting "Cows": Includes a trip on the TACKLE BOX boat for 2 anglers with Capt. Phil in the Spring! While standard charters focus on numbers, this program specializes in targeting "cow" stripers—the heavyweights of the migration.
