Arthur did an excellent job on all fronts. Caught a ton of fish. I’ve used a number of guides through Fishing Broker, all of them great, but he is at the top. Great service, genuinely a nice guy, easy to get to/from, nice boat and equipment. Will definitely be back!
Thanks Ryan. Great day on the water
Arthur was a great captain. He got all 3 of us on fish even though the fish were a little hard to find. When it's 95 in the city, it's only 85 on the water; great way to beat the heat with a fun and friendly guide.
Being an angler in Manhattan, you don’t expect to do much fishing. Your usually limited to a crowded public park or pulling shopping carts out of the East River. However after discovering Captain Cortez charter, I finally found a way to fish how I want when I want. A quick 30 min drive from the city puts you in a landscape anglers only dream of having targeting a variety of species in a small boat ideal for serious fisherman and novices alike. I would recommend this charter to anyone and will be going again soon.
Thanks for the kind words and you guys are always welcomed on my boat.
We had a blast with Arthur the first time so we booked another trip a few days later! We caught a number of fish and definitely want a rematch with the stripers! Arthur is knowledgeable and very personable with s great rate! I definitely recommend booking with him!
What a great experience! Weather did not cooperate in the morning but we still managed to have a great day! He gave us extra time because of the weather, and helped my 12 year old catch some nice ones despite the weather. we will be back for sure.
