Not only is Captain Austin extremely professional, but you can tell he loves what he does. Had a blast! This Texas gal is ready for her next trip back to Florida!

I have been out on three charters with Austin and I have never come back empty handed. Austin is an amazing captain and he has a natural talent and ability to know where the fish are. He is an awesome person with an easy going personality. You can tell he loves what he does and he is good at it. You will not be disappointed if you choose him to take you out.

We had so much fun fishing with captain Austin, he knows what he’s doing and wants to catch fish as badly as you want to catch fish. He’s taken us fishing a couple of times now and he never disappoints. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a charter in the area!
