01 · Overnight troll
Canyon Overnight: a long-run trophy trip out of Point Pleasant Beach
This extended Canyon Overnight trip sails from Point Pleasant Beach aboard a 38’ Henriques flybridge and is configured for anglers who want to push out to deep-water edges and reef complexes. The operator supplies rods, reels, terminal tackle and live bait; the boat is outfitted with a flybridge, toilet, shower, kitchen, bed and air conditioning so an overnight run stays focused on fishing, not logistics. Captain and crew plan techniques according to conditions — trolling, jigging, bottom fishing — and will clean and fillet your catch at the end of the trip.
The 30-hour format accommodates a deliberate search for larger species, from pelagics to bottom dwellers, and is best for small groups comfortable with an extended day at sea. Because the vessel is set up for multi-day comfort, anglers can expect a properly provisioned platform and crew that manages the onboard details while you fish.

Canyon Tile Fishing: electric reels and long runs from Neptune City
This full-day Canyon Tile Fishing trip runs from Neptune City on a 36ft Contender optimized for long runs to golden and blueline tile grounds. The operator provides electric reels, bait and deep‑drop rigs; passengers can expect a hot lunch and coffee served while the crew manages bait and gear. The trip’s riding time to productive grounds can be significant, so the configuration prioritizes speed and comfort and supplies beanbags, cooler space and a crew that handles fish cleaning and bagging.
The format is built for anglers who want to focus on a specific species complex and who appreciate an outfitted boat with electric tackle for sustained deep‑water work. There are standard restrictions for those needing medical care because of the length of the run; the operator requests arriving early to get settled before departure.

Full Day Charter: a dedicated private day for big-water targets
This Full Day Charter is presented as a private eight-hour trip billed as a go-to for larger species and deep-water structure. The operator advertises a start-time window with live bait, licenses and gear included; potential catches listed include Spanish and King Mackerel, tarpon, cobia, sea bass, grouper and large sharks. The trip accommodates up to six people with all equipment supplied, making it a practical option for groups that want to arrive with minimal kit and maximum expectations for big-water action.
Because the listing references specific reef structure and a concentrated deep-water focus, this charter suits anglers after a targeted day on structure and offshore marks. The operator’s rate structure and start times are presented on the booking page; guests are encouraged to confirm departure logistics and any age or provisioning details directly with the captain ahead of the trip.

In‑Shore Shark Fishing: fast action from Point Pleasant Beach
The In‑Shore Shark Fishing full-day runs from Point Pleasant Beach aboard the same comfortable 38’ Henriques used on other Tale Chaser trips. The operator emphasizes comfort — air conditioning, ice box, a toilet and a crew that provides rods, reels and tackle — while you target larger inshore species. Techniques vary by season and day, and the crew will adjust presentation between bottom fishing, trolling and jigging as conditions dictate. The crew also offers catch cleaning and filleting so anglers leave with their fish ready to take home.
This is a good fit for anglers seeking a single-day, high-intensity chase of large inshore fish where the boat platform and service keep the focus on fishing. Make sure everyone in your party has the required licenses and confirms any restrictions with the operator before boarding.

Inshore Bottom Fishing: reliable, comfortable half‑day trips
The Inshore Bottom Fishing trip from Neptune City runs six hours and is offered with all gear and bait included.

These outings are sized for groups of up to six anglers and are suited to families or friends who want steady action nearshore without an extended commitment.
Practicalities are straightforward: a deposit reserves the date, final payment is handled on the day and guests should discuss target species with Captain Dexter when booking. The format’s combination of short transit times and included gear makes it an efficient choice for newer anglers or small groups who want to be on the water quickly and return with cleaned fish.
