He’ll also offer instructions in conventional fishing techniques. All the gear you need will be provided, and you’ll make the most of the guide’s thorough knowledge of where the big fish bite.

Arthur will contact you after booking to confirm your meeting location, and he’ll make sure that everything is taken care of. He’ll will even provide snacks and drinks when on board, and he’s got you covered for your fishing license.

You really don’t need to do anything! Get booking and get ready for a thrilling day on NYC’s exciting waters with Cortes Outfitters.
