While we couldn't replicate last year's success with stripers, Scott quickly adapted his tactics, and we spent the entire morning reeling in gator blues! We also had some thrilling close encounters with fin and minke whales. Overall, it was another fantastic trip with Scott and Ortus Charters!

December 6, 2024

Despite a challenging bite, Scott put in a lot of effort to locate the fish. My daughter and I enjoyed creating lasting memories before she heads off to college in a few weeks. I wouldn't hesitate to book another trip with Scott whenever I'm in this area.

December 6, 2024

The trip was excellent. Captain Scott knew precisely where to find the bass, and we had a lot of fun. I highly recommend booking a charter with him. Additionally, we had the opportunity to see a couple of whales.

December 6, 2024

Had an absolutely amazing and thrilling encounter with a massive Bluefin Tuna, possibly around 600lbs. Battled the tuna for seven hours—ultimately lost it, but the effort to keep such a large fish on the line for that duration was incredible. Huge credit to Captain Scott and deckhand Ed for their skill and assistance. Thanks a ton, guys, for making it an unforgettable day. If you're looking for one of the top charters, book with Captain Scott!

December 6, 2024

Our time on the water with Scott was fantastic! Spending half a day, we experimented with various techniques and managed to reel in 15 striped bass and a bluefish. Scott's friendly and laid-back demeanor, coupled with his knowledge of the area and fishing techniques, made the experience even more enjoyable. The boat was just right for us, and we had a beautiful day off Provincetown!

Captain Scott Yelle from Ortus Charters is incredibly knowledgeable. He guided us to a spot where whales were feeding, and tuna were breaking the surface. We eagerly followed the action, alternating between trolling and jigging, resulting in hooking and landing two respectable-sized tuna that day. Captain Scott consistently prioritized safety and ensured both his crew and customers were actively involved in the mission throughout. My brother, my son, and I had an unforgettable adventure on the water, catching Bluefin tuna—a memory we will treasure for a lifetime. We're eagerly anticipating another Ortus Charter with Captain Scott in the upcoming season. Tight lines!
