Fin-Atic Sportfishing Charters
Fin-Atic Sportfishing Charters offers some of the finest inshore, bay, and nearshore fishing in the entire Chesapeake Bay. Captain Mike Lintzenich is a 100-ton master captain who works hard to ensure that you experience the best fishing opportunities possible in this beautiful and bountiful fishery.
Choose between four, six, and eight-hour fishing trips for up to four people aboard a 25' C-Hawk center console boat with a custom tower. The vessel is equipped with GPS and fishfinder to get you locked on the biggest fish in the bay, and features downriggers to help target those hard-to-reach fish beneath your feet. She also has a huge, 40-gallon livewell full of fresh bait.
Capt. Mike specializes in Cobia and Red Drum sight-fishing, but he will customize the trip to your needs and interests. You will be able to target Cobia from the beginning of June to the end of September, while Striped Bass can be caught in November and December.

Just want to catch some fish? Capt. Mike will make it happen.
All trips come with quality light tackle, a selection of lures, and the best live bait around. Mike prepares this ahead of time so you don't waste yours fishing for it. Fishing licenses are also covered, and your fish will even be cleaned and filleted free of charge at the end of the day. All you need to bring is your food and drinks and plenty of energy for the day ahead.

This was an amazing day! We went with Captain Mike back in June and we caught cobia, but they were all undersized. We started fishing for sheepshead, bluefish, and then hit for the cobia. When we went after cobia, I thought we were gonna have the same bad luck of undersized as last time but that changed. First 2 fish were undersized, but then 3rd times the charm. 3rd fish was a nice 57 inch cobia. It didn't end there though, we caught 5 more after that but they were just an inch or two undersized. If you wanna catch fish, especially cobia, check this guy out. He knows what he's doing. Check out Captain Mike!
Worked hard to get all three of us a chance to fight a cobia on a day when the fishing wasn’t easy. I really enjoyed riding in the tower, spotting cobia, and learning how to cast to them.
This guy is the man! He is completely honest with you, he doesn't just want to take you on a boat ride. Mike called me earlier in the week to let me know that there was a tournament going on and fishing was going to be hard. I still told him that was OK and we still decided to go. There were over a hundred boats in the area and everything Capt Mike said, was true. The bay was full with boats. Mike still found the fish even though they were really pressured. Also it seemed like everywhere Mike went to, the boats seemed to follow and would be at the spot we were fishing 30 minutes later. We were cobia fishing and this guy worked his butt off for me and and my buddy. We caught 2 but they were under sized and Capt Mike, I could see it was bothering him we hadn't got a keeper in the boat yet but that's fishing. We saw cobia but their mouths were sowed shut, probably from the tournament. Him and his mate spent all day on the tower of the boat looking for us. We had a few fish get hooked but they just seemed to spit it out. Mike and his mate Brandon are hardworking for you, and will do everything they can to get fish in the boat for you. This guy showed me everything I needed to see that he was a great captain because he worked so freaking hard to find fish. I will definitely be going later this summer to go after cobia again. This guy isn't just wanting to give you a boat ride, he's solely focused on you going home with fish. Go with him and you won't regret it.
Thank you Andrew, was actually a good day of fishing considering the odds! We saw a bunch of fish, hooked several solid big fish that rubber hooked us, and saw a fish of a lifetime that we got robbed by its partner. That’s pure fishing!somedays mother nature has its own rules, fact is was a great day on the water with a new found friend, that’s what counts the most!Tomorrow is another day, every day is different, we’ll get em! Thank you again for your kind words.
Not much caught, but what we did, oh boy! 52” red drum which Capt Mike said was worth a citation for which he is going to put in the paperwork. Capt was friendly and patient with the kids and tried hard to put us on the fish. Boat was clean and maintained well. Will fish again.
