Half Day with Captain Austin
Half Day Inshore Trip (AM) on May 18, 20234 adults

Our charter was a great time! Captain Austin was polite and great company. Captain Austin took us to so many great spots! Fish were biting the entire time and when/if they slowed down he promptly moved us to another spot with constant biting! He was very attentive to our bait needs never leaving us waiting. The boat was perfect size with a comfy cushioned large seat up front, our boys fell asleep on. He cleaned all our fish back at the dock and even packaged them in ice for us. We will be referring him to all our friends and highly recommend!

Half day trip with Captain Austin
Half Day Inshore Trip (AM) on February 1, 20232 adults

My wife and I had a great day out on the water catching more fish than we could keep track of! Red grouper, triggerfish and grunts were just some of what we caught in the gulf. He even took the time to introduce us to snook as we came back inland, which were an absolute blast to catch! Austin is knowledgeable and friendly and really made the trip fun, bringing us to the fish "hot spots" right away. We would highly recommend him if you are wanting to fish in this area!

Response from Captain

Thank you! It was a pleasure having y’all aboard!!
