Lur'em In Fishing Guide 

we had a blast catching fish!!!!

Here’s to anyone looking to take home some fish..I booked Captain Cortez again due to an awsome first time trip. Well what can I say Captain Cortez did it again. With out hesitation He put us on some big reds and drum.. Man I could not believe this.. I was so happy and pleased on how Awsome his trips have been. I will continue to book him as well as anyone should, trust me you will not be disappointed. Thanks again Captain you are the man….

Took my son and my grandson out with Captain Cortez. His communication was great. He was very friendly, very patient. He is engaged with everyone. Though we got off to a slow start he kept everyone engaged. We ended up with some good fish in the boat. Then Captain Cortez recommended a good place to cook it. Most importantly he made sure my Son and Grandson had a good time. We will definitely be back !!!

My brother and I had a fantastic day today with Capt. Fil. It was a pretty tough day of fishing but Fil still put us on some great fish. We had an over slot redfish and several smaller reds and loads of drum and sheepshead (which were excellent pan roasted). Fil was a great captain and a very funny guy. He was easy to get along with and he knew the area like the back of his hand. I will definitely be going back to Capt. Fil anytime I am down in Corpus Christi and would encourage anyone else to go with him as well. Thanks!

GREAT TRIP!!!! Captain Fil was a great guide from the moment we connected which was 2 months before we even fished. Nothing better than catching everyone’s Red Fish limit in couple hours and still having time to explore the area for a couple other species. Gear worked great, boat was smooth while speeding across the water, bait was perfect and honey bear Captain Fil took us to the honey hole. It was right by the ........sorry, you will have to let him show you the sweetness. Great for serious and family fishing trips.

My recent fishing trip with Captain Cortez was awesome! It was my first time out bay fishing and Captain Cortez made sure it was a blast. Not only was it a good time fishing, Captain Cortez also shared his knowledge of fishing with me and taught me a couple of things. There was never a dull moment on Captain Cortez’s boat! I’m already getting the details worked out with my buddies for our next outing with Captain Cortez. Thanks for a good time fishing Captain Cortez!

I had an absolute blast with Captain Cortez on the water! After knowing what species of fish I liked he made sure I caught my personal best speckled trout! He is very knowledgeable and will put you on the fish!! He will provide everything that you will need and will make sure you have a great time. Not only did I appreciate his kindness and conversation, I now consider him my friend. I can’t wait to book another trip! Thanks Captain!

It was my son's FIRST fishing trip and Captain Cortez was referred to me. Long story short, my son and I both MAXED OUT incl my tagged oversized Redfish. He was having the time of his life! Had no choice but to call it a day with a happy son and hours ahead of schedule. Cpt Cortez was SO GREAT at helping him learn and giving him pointers while making him feel totally safe and confident.. and is now on speed dial for all my future fishing trips in Corpus.

Captain Fil provided an amazing fishing trip for me and my son. This was our first time saltwater fishing, and the captain put us on the reds as soon as we started fishing. We both limited out on reds by 9:15! Spent the rest of the time kicking back an leisurely fishing. Had a lot of nice fillets to take home with us. Whether new to fishing or experienced, I highly recommend Captain Fil when you’re in Corpus.

This was a fantastic experience that exceeded anything I was expecting. Captain Cortez was very knowledgeable on the water and made the whole trip very fun. We had caught our limit of redfish within only a couple hours and were able to spend the rest of the day trying out different spots and just taking it easy. One of the most fun days of fishing I've ever had. Highly recommend trying it out.
