Plain Area off the New Jersey coast
Lizzy D is a locally named fishing spot off Sandy Hook, likely named for a fishing vessel or local captain. The ground marks productive hard-bottom structure for sea bass, tautog, and striped bass in the Sandy Hook offshore zone. Bluefish and bonito work the surface above during summer. Charter boats from Sandy Hook and Highlands marinas include Lizzy D on their regular bottom-fishing rotation during peak season.
