Finatic Sport Fishing Charters is a Neptune City, New Jersey–based charter operator offering guided fishing and scenic boat trips along the Jersey Shore and in the Northeast canyons.
The charter operates a 36ft Contender for canyon and tile trips and provides a mix of private and open-boat options for inshore, midshore and offshore fishing. Trip lengths range from flexible 6-hour outings up to 16-hour canyon runs, including 10-hour Mahi Inshore trips and 12-hour tuna excursions up to 75 miles offshore.
Available trip types include Mahi Inshore (with optional midshore/offshore upgrades), Ocean Striper trips offered as private or open-boat charters, inshore bottom fishing for sea bass, fluke and porgy, canyon tile fishing with electric reels and provided bait, Fall Bluefin trips using trolling or jigging, and a Day Canyon 16-hour tuna/tilefish/mahi trip on a comfortable 36-foot boat with air conditioning and a bathroom.
Most trips accommodate up to six anglers, while the Day Canyon trip is limited to five anglers. Many listings state that all gear and bait are provided. One inshore bottom fishing listing identifies Captain Dexter as the guide for 6-hour trips from May to December. The charter stages departures from Shark River and Belmar areas and runs some open-boat trips from Total Marine at Seaview.
Finatic Sport Fishing Charters focuses on providing equipment, localized fishing techniques, and a variety of trip lengths to suit anglers seeking inshore and offshore fishing along the New Jersey coast.
