Hook & Fin Fishing Charters
Hook & Fin Fishing Charters
Let Hook & Fin Fishing Charters take you out for a fun and productive fishing trip around Sandy Hook. With an experienced guide at the helm and prolific waters, you can't really go wrong – all you have to do is choose what you'd like to catch.
Your captain offers specialized expeditions for some of the favorite local species, so you can chase Blackfish (Tautog), wrestle Striped Bass, and look for Black Seabass on the nearby reefs. Of course, these are not the only fish you can catch here, not by a long shot – Bluefish, Atlantic Salmon, Flounder (Fluke), Bonito, and many more are in the cards.
The boat that will be your ride and fishing platform is a 27' cuddy cabin, rigged with a 300 HP Mercruiser engine, that will take you to the best spots quickly and safely. Up to 4 anglers can be on a trip and they'll have plenty of room to fish at the same time. There's a private toilet on board, so you'll travel in full comfort.
When it comes to your fishing gear, you'll be using quality Okuma, Shimano, and Penn tackle, but you're welcome to bring your own equipment if you'd like. There's a variety of techniques you can try out and hone, depending on what you're targeting and how much experience you have.
All you should think about before the trip is getting a fishing license and dressing in layers to avoid the cold. Make sure you're wearing non-marking shoes and have your raingear at hand, just in case.
The Captain will provide water, and you can bring your food and drinks as well. Alcohol is not allowed on board, except for beer or seltzers. Children who are 8 and older can join you on the trip, there are life jackets on the boat for all ages.
Please note that tipping the first mate is customary. Usually, this amount is around 20%.

This was an unforgettable experience for my family and has now made fishers out of all of us. I'll be buying my first fishing pole soon. Captain Steve is THE best. He is kind, fun, communicative, and knowledgeable. Highly recomend!!
It was a pleasure having you all on board. Hope to see you again!
Captain Steve was a great guide on our bottom fishing trip. Taught us a lot on our first trip and made it a great trip catching some sea bass.
Thank you for fishing with me!! Hope to see you again!
While we did not catch any fish, we had a great day. The crew went above and beyond but really nobody caught anything from what we could see. Great boat too.
Thank you and nice to meet all of you. !

I've been an avid fisherman since childhood, and I have over 20 years of experience in inshore and offshore fishing, as well as on the Great Lakes. I started running trips 4 years ago when I acquired my 50-Ton Master Captain's License. I enjoy meeting people and getting them hooked up on fishing! My favorite catches include Blackfish, Fluke, Black Seabass, and anything else willing to take the bait.
