We always enjoy our trips with Capt Cory…5 and counting!  He’s great with my daughter and is very knowledgeable about the area.  We look forward to our annual fishing trips and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Cory took my dad and I out on a half day trip. Cory was super responsive from my initial questions (before I even booked) through the end of the trip. He's very personable, and he clearly knows what he's doing. We caught a ton of fish, and Cory worked his butt off for us. He was also a great coach helping my dad and me figure out some subtle techniques. I can't sing Cory's praises enough, but ultimately, my dad and I agreed it was one of our best fishing days ever. If I ever get back to that part of the world, I'll definitely call Cory again.

Great day fishing with Captain Cory! We caught several nice reds and one whopper on a slow-to-bite kinda day.  If you're looking for a likeable, good with kids guide who'll put you on the fish - Cap'n Cory's your man.

Super nice guy, and got us on the fish, even in the 35 degree, 25 mph wind. 10/10.

My team and I hired Captain Cory for our female fishing tournament. Capt Cory was very professional and informative. We caught a lot of great fish and felt safe on the water. I look forward to many more trips with Capt Cory and would definitely recommend him to friends and family.
