Gulf Coast Charter Service 

Captain Fabian is a great Captain and we highly recommended. Knew we wanted snook and took us to ‘his spot’. Two lines cast, two hits and two landed snook. after that action died we went for ladyfish for shark bait. Caught more than a dozen in less than 45 minutes. Shark fishing was a blast. A couple of blacktips caught within minutes. A nice hammerhead weighing in around 50lbs that took the angler around the boat several times before being caught and released. Finally a large something (?) took the bait and nearly spun out 300 yards of line before breaking off. It was a very busy half a day. Captain Fabian will get you on the fish and keep you entertained.

Capt Fabian nailed it and earned thoae 5 stars. 1) excellent and proactive communication- made it easy and provided confidence for our trip 2) His slip was easy to get to, find and had plenty of parking. 3) His boat and gear were clean and everything was very organized and professional 4) He was a great guide, knew the waters and a mot of history - also put us on the fish and took pir requests 5) Capt Fabian is super personable and was great with our kids. Made it easy for them to catch some fish, see the sighs and they had a great time feeding the pelicans after a great day on the water. Id highly recommend Capt Fabian for tour next charter!

There’s a reason Capt Fabian only has 5 star reviews. Simply put, he’s just a great guy and truly knows the water and what he’s doing. He has an immaculately kept boat and great custom gear. Most importantly for me, he was incredibly patient with my two sons who are 9 and 7, teaching them what do and joking with them along the way. He shifted around our tactics as the afternoon went along and we were able to catch lots of trout (some really big), a couple snook, and at least a half dozen redfish. I know my boys and I will remember this experience for a long time!

fabian was truthful after we gave hime the makeup of our group and wanted to try and get some reds. weather didn’t cooperate but we gave it hell for some reds and caught a few. then we went and caught fish with lots of action after the patient fishing for reds. he was very flexible with our schedule. ill call him for sure next time we are in the area.

We had an awesome fishing trip with Capt. Fabian! He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and worked hard to put us on the fish. We caught snook and several other species, we didnt know what they were since we were from NY. :) Everyone in our group had a great time. Capt. Fabian makes the trip enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommend!

Went on the afternoon trip and the captain took us out early. We requested fish for eating to start. Tried several spot and caught a variety of fish. Mostly trout. Also caught about a 3’ shark but when it got up next to the boat, it decided it had enough and broke the line and swam away. Captain then took us to sport fish. Those were Refish and other catch and release type fish. Everyone had a great time and caught fish. Defiantly will go with this captain again next time

This trip was beyond incredible. Captain Fabian is so knowledgeable and very friendly. We absolutely hammered the reds, caught a blue fish and a snook. All decently large. If you are looking for a guide look not further. He is absolutely amazing and I will be booking a good. 15/10 recommend!

Tried several spots, since fish weren’t biting well. Put us on a good location to catch snook for a while. Explained a lot about other wildlife/fish in the bay, which was interesting. Overall, good experience and Fabian was great with new anglers and kids. Equipment and boat were in great shape.

There were four of us including two teenagers and the boat was the perfect size. We had a great time. Caught enough fish for dinner, but the captain did all the things a great captain and guide should. Also got to see manatees and dolphins. Will definitely use Captian Fabian in the future.

captain was great, family of 6 did a 6hr charter and couldn't have been better!! he answered all my kids questions and was very knowledgeable. We caught lot's of fish even though it was 102°. Definitely worth checking out. I highly recommend this trip, he knows where to fish.
