Captain
Austin Aycock

Member since April 2018 Ocean Isle Beach, United States
Background
Captain Austin grew up charter fishing with his uncle around 2010 and started working as a mate for him. He worked with his uncle up until the time he was old enough to obtain his Captain's License and has been running charters ever since. There is nothing Captain Austin enjoys more than putting clients on fish and helping them have a great trip.
Techniques
Captain Austin does all different kinds of fishing but he mostly does trolling, both trolling for Kingfish with live bait or trolling for bigger pelagics offshore with ballyhoo. He also likes to use some other styles of fishing as well, such as high-speed trolling for Wahoo, kite fishing for Kingfish, and also jigging for Grouper, Snapper, and African Pompano. There are so many different styles of fishing in the world that he feels like there is always something new to learn.
