Grew up on Cape Cod and have always loved fishing. Finally decided to start a charter business to share my love with others. Really love being on the water because each day is different and unique.

New York, US•Member since 20245.0VerifiedGreat Striper Trip
5 Hr Trip – Blues and Bass - AM • 4 adultsWonderful new boat and very well run operation. Really appreciated that they had caught live bait before they picked us up, so we were ready with it when it was needed and didn't have to spend part of our time catching bait. Our family is a mix of more and less experienced anglers and they coached on fishing technique rather than taking the pole, hooking the fish and handing it back to one of us to reel it in. Been on several striper charters on the Cape. This one we're coming back to. Nicely done guys!

4 HR Black Sea Bass(May 17-June 1) • 2 adultsToday my friend and I got to try something new! We had a great day catching black sea bass. The weather turned out perfect. Scott and Jake were very professional, super knowledgeable and very fun to fish with. Scott was easy to communicate with, and made my life easy when finding a boat launch. They made sure we were always on top of fish and made sure our lines were always tight. Overall a wonderfull expierience, and we do plan on going back. Any anglers hesitant on who to fish with should choose Ortus Charters!
Response from Captainit was great spending time kn the water with you both! thank yiu and we will see you again on your nextvtrip to the Cape!
Dan WilliamsRepeat anglerNew Hampshire, US•Member since 2023•3 trips5.0VerifiedAnother great day on the water with Ortus!
5 Hr Trip – Blues and Bass - AM • 2 adultsIt was great to fish with Scott and Ortus charters again. The day began with wind and waves but Scott covered some ground and employed multiple tactics to get us on fish. Later it cslmed down and we found a honey hole and a coiple presentations that the fish couldn’t resist! Scott always works hard to put fish in tge boat for his clients. Wr left with great memories, striped bass fillets and the bonus squid were a nice addition! We will fish with Ortus again!
Reported catch:Response from CaptainWe love having you every year! You should have some nice dinners ahead! We look forward to seeing you next summer!
Amanda BrussAlabama, US•Member since 20265.0Half day with Ortus Charters - highly recommend!
5 Hr Trip – Blue and Bass-PMScott was outstanding from start to finish. He was personable, prompt and fantastic with my two boys making the trip enjoyable for everyone. Communication was excellent and he was flexible with changing weather conditions to ensure we had the best experience possible. His boat was clean and well maintained and his assistant Jay did a great job as well. We’re very glad we chose Scott’s charter and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great day on the water!
Response from CaptainIt was so great to have you and the boys out! You all kept us busy with all the fish you hauled in! We appreciate the flexibility so that we could get your trip in before the storm! Thank you!
Jim TMassachusetts, US•Member since 20265.0VerifiedGreat crew and experience
5 Hr Trip – Blues and Bass - AM • 5 adults • 3 childrenThis was the first charter for my family of 5. We had a great time on the water. Scott and and his first mate, Ed, were experienced and made the trip enjoyable while also educating us on the different techniques. Despite the fish not biting, every effort was made. We will definitely be returning for a future fishing charter with Ortus Charters!
Response from CaptainJim we loved having your family out and look forward to more trips together. we wilk find a flatter day next time! yiu all were troopers!!!

One of the thrills of what i get to do is watching someone who has never caught a fish in the ocean, land their first one! The women in red, Ari had never caught anthing from the ocean before. We taught her how to cast, battle it and we helped her get it into the boat. Pure joy on her face! Over 20 fish landed today with 5 keepers and one over
