About Your Trip

Cast your line for a half day of adventure with Captain Arthur! Bask in the scenery of New York’s stunning coastline while perfecting your light tackle or fly-fishing skills.

During your trip, you’ll fish for Striped Bass and Bluefish with a sea-savvy captain Arthur , who will instruct you in fly-tying and proper casting techniques, as well as bottom bait-fishing. He’ll also offer instructions in conventional fishing techniques. Gear will be provided, and you’ll make the most of the guide’s thorough knowledge of where the big fish bite.

In addition, you’ll be fishing aboard a 22’ Cape Craft center console boat, which offers a spacious and safe ride for up to 2 passengers plus the guide. Powered by a 150 HP Yamaha engine, the boat features state of the art electronics, including a fish finder and a chart plotter to get you on the fish.

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.

Get booking and get ready for a thrilling day on NYC’s exciting waters with Captain Arthur!
