Full Day with Capt. Fil

4 hour Trip2 adults

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!

Response from Captain

It was a great day fishing with two brothers Clifford and Calvin from Tennessee. They caught their limit and spent the rest of the day just sport fishing. The cold weather didn't bother these guys one bit. Thank you both for choosing me to be your Captain. Looking forward to taking you fishing again soon. It's all about fishing and having fun. Thanks again.

    Outstanding Capt & Charter

    Half day 6 hours trip • 2 adults

    From the start of the day to the end, Capt Cortez was phenomenal! During our charter, we had some unexpected windy - windy conditions and you could tell Capt Cortez was a master of his domain behind the wheel of his boat. He was able to keep us in perfect positions to catch fish and safe in the rapidly moving water. As a bonus we saw the compassion of the Capt as he was able to help a couple jet-skiers who fell off and were separated from their party. With their jet-ski moving farther away, we scooped one up, while another boat picked up the other and reunited them with their vessel. Surely this could’ve ended badly if not for quick thinking of Capt Cortez and others like him. No doubt we will be booking again with Capt Cortez in the new year to catch those monster Redfish and Black Drum. Thanks again for the great time & great conversation!

    Tough Day Pays Off

    Half day 6 hours trip • 2 adults

    From start to finish Capt B made our trip memorable and exciting. The tackle was perfect and provided worry free casting and retrieval. Capt B had some tried and true tricks that put us on the fish. Usually an unsuspected North wind shift would kill the trip, on the contrary, Capt B re-racked and put us right back on the fish. Finishing up, there is a fish cleaning service back at Marker 37 dock that made quick work of the fish cleaning. Thank you B

    It's always a pleasure fishing with a new customer. Having a customer knowledgeable in fishing and having fun is what it's all about. At the end of the day we had a great fishing experience and where a customer became a friend. Thank you for booking your trip with me.

    Had a GREAT TIME!

    Half day 6 hours trip • 3 adults • 1 child

    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 !!!
