Tile Fish

[KNOTHEAD1]

Does anyone have any numbers where I could start to look for Tile Fish out of Ocean City MD? Also any suggestions or tips to catching them.

No numbers, but I can tell you how to get to the tiles.

Find the quickest route to I95 South. When you get to Selma, NC turn left on Hwy 70. Drive for 2.5 hours until you get to Morehead City, NC. Turn right onto the Atlantic Beach/MHC bridge. After crossing the bridge drive for 20 seconds and turn left into the Capt Stacy Fishing Center. Charter a captain named Bobby Freeman.

You'll find some tilefish sure enough!

Don't know around OC, but up north in Nj, Hudson and I would guess the other deep canyons hold them. As I recall, it's bottom fishing in 1000 ft+ water, so you'd probably have to run to 150 FA +, which is a far ride to fish that deep.
