Captain Astin made my charter experience a great one. His deep knowledge of the local area, combined with his friendly and approachable demeanor, made for a great trip. He asked what I was looking to accomplish on the trip, we accomplished my request to catch large Reds and Snook within the first hour. Highly recommend his services for an outstanding fishing experience.

Austin is the best! We had such a good time catching redfish, trout and snook. Can’t beat the experience fishing with your family and having fun. Will definitely do it again next time we are in town. Took our fish to “Blue Dog Restuarant “ where they cooked it up anyway you wanted! It was amazing!!! Best ever!

Captain Austin made for great company while we were going around, catching fish at pretty much every spot he took us. Very knowledgeable of the water and the fish movements. Would definitely recommend AHAB charters to anyone and everyone that wants to have a good day on the water, catching fish. Will definitely be booking again if the chance is there!

Captain Austin knows the fishing spots. He is a pleasure to talk with. Caught a bunch of Snook. One was too big, 36 inch, to keep but blast to reel in. Will fish with him again.
