Captain Austin is easily the best. Been fortunate to have fished many charters, and AMI Sportsfishing Charters stood out. Captain Austin is very knowledgeable, patient, helpful, and a great personality. We got on the fish right away in less than ideal conditions. No messing around getting bait fish during your trip. Captain Austin comes prepared with live bait in the livewell. Don’t waste your time trying to compare AMI Sportsfishing to other charters, they are simply the best.

We had scheduled an 8 hour trip originally but the day before the weather forecast started giving storms at 2pm. He offered to let us change it to a 6hr trip and give us a partial refund. Austin is an amazing captain, he took us to 3 different spots and we caught something at all 3. We caught 2 red grouper, a gag grouper, 2 red snapper, a yellow tail snapper and numerous sharks. Austin is very personable and makes sure everyone has a good time. Of course I wish we could have caught more fish,... More

We had a great day on the water with Captain Austin. His boat is clean and comfortable and is designed to make fishing easy! He is a skilled guide and he had us on fish our entire trip! Caught some nice Red Fish that we had to release (Out of season) and brought back Spotted Sea Trout and Flounder for dinner. We recommend Captain Austin without any hesitation and we are looking forward to booking with him our next trip to Bradenton Beach!

Three of us went out with Captain Austin and had an absolute blast. Austin put us on fish from the beginning and after catching 15-20 Spanish Mackerel, lady fish, and blue fish in the first hour or two we pivoted as we spotted some Tarpon and even hooked a monster! Such a nice and knowledgeable guy.  We’ve been taking about it all afternoon since getting done. We’ll be back!!

I highly recommend Captain Austin, AMI Sportfishing. He went above and beyond to get us on fish. Its easy to see his incredible work ethic when you first step on his awesome boat he built specifically for his charter needs.
