    Barnegat Lighthouse State Park at the tip of Long Beach Island is one of the Jersey Shore's most iconic fishing locations, where the powerful tidal rips of Barnegat Inlet and the historic lighthouse jetties create legendary striped bass fishing and excellent bluefish, summer flounder, tautog, and black sea bass action. Spot Features: Barnegat Lighthouse State Park at the northern tip of Long Beach Island in Ocean County, New Jersey, surrounds the iconic Barnegat Lighthouse ('Old Barney'), with the Barnegat Inlet's powerful tidal rips, the lighthouse jetties, and the surrounding waters providing some of the finest striped bass, summer flounder, bluefish, tautog, and black sea bass fishing on the Jersey Shore. Seasonality: Striped bass are the primary target at Barnegat Lighthouse (Old Barney) in Ocean County, New Jersey, at the northern tip of Long Beach Island, best in spring (May-June) and fall (September-October) in the powerful tidal rips. Summer flounder are the prime summer bottom species in the inlet channel. Bluefish are abundant through summer and fall. Tautog and black sea bass are fall structure fish.
