Welcome to The Flats Guy Fishing Charters! Captain Austin Abercrombie looks forward to meeting each and every one of you! With almost a decade and a half of fishing in Biscayne Bay and the Everglades National Park, he knows exactly how to make your day on the water one to remember. If you're interested in booking a charter or any other information, feel free to contact Capt. Austin. Join him in Homestead and go catch them up!

You'll start your adventure on an 18' Hell's Bay flats boat that can take up to 2 anglers. It runs on a 2014 60 HP Mercury four-stroke engine and uses Garmin GPS navigation technology. The boat's console seat is a cooler, too, so you'll have everything you need for a productive day fishing.

The captain focuses on targeting mainly 6 species of fish, but your choice regarding which fish you'd like to catch will dictate the area that you'll be casting your line in. You can find Redfish, Snook, Trout, and Tarpon in the Everglades National Park, and Bonefish, Permit, and Tarpon in Biscayne Bay. Using light tackle, you can try spinning, while fly fishing is also an option.

Capt. Austin will take care of all the fishing equipment you'll need, including fly fishing gear as well. He also covers you for fishing licenses for all on board and drinks. Just keep in mind that all the fish you catch is to be released, but that just means there's more to go around next time you come.

Book now and spend a magical day on Florida's beautiful and rich waters with The Flats Guy Fishing Charters!

Great day, absolutely stunning! The game plan was Everglades in the morning and flats fishing in the way back, sure enough we did and very well. Everglades was just a blast. We were able to catch tarpon snook and red and being in the Everglades you can change the targeted species very quick ! He has plenty of knowledge, super equipment, you don’t even need to bring your personal equipment. Incredible environment as well. Truly recommended! I should have more days like that !! I’ll be back asap ! :)
