Just a cry for help, I lived up in Boston and then got transferred to Minnesota and now have a choice to move to New Jersey. The question is where do I look as I will be living in Sommerville if I do go.
My main consideration is saltwater flyfishing from a Kayak and that will dictate where I go.
I do not know the areas and what to look for so all and any input will be welcome.
Thanks Leon

Plenty of places to fish from a yak. Raritan Bay, Barnegat Bay, Shrewsbury, Navesink, and oh yeah, there are plenty of guys who will yak the ocean as well.

NJ fishing can be frustrating and spectacular in the same season. Probably a bit different than what you might be used to in NE, the water is usually not as clear, and we don't have as much of the hard structure. But we usually get a fair amount of baitfish and our share of action in blues, stripers and albies.

Welcome! Despite what you may have heard, New Jersey is actually a great place to live and the location puts you within reach of many fishing options.
