Capt. Fabian is an excellent captain and has an excellent boat and uses top notch equipment. His knowledge of the area and the different fish is without equal. I will be chartering with him again in the future!
Captain Fabian provided us with an excellent day on the water. He was extremely knowledgeable of the area, and put us on a number of great bites. Our day included a good balance of technical sport fishing and easier trout fishing. Everyone in our group of 4 caught plenty of fish. Captain Fabian filled our coolers and then some with great looking fish; we will be eating well for the next few days. Overall, we had a great experience and will be returning for another trip in the future! I would strongly recommend this charter, whether you're looking to sport fish or fill your cooler, or even a little bit of both.
I wanted to give a friend from the UK a unique SW Florida experience while he was visiting. I chartered a half day trip with Captain Fabian for some inshore fishing. Everything about the trip was excellent. The weather cooperated. Fish were caught, some for the table and others catch and release. Captain Fabian is an excellent guide and boat operator. Knowledgeable of the area, professional and just really good company to have on a boat. He runs a spotlessly clean boat that is well maintained and well organized to maximized guest comfort and ease of movement while fishing. I heartily recommend him to anyone looking for a charter and will likely use him again for future trips in this area.
I am a father of three young children (10, 8 and 8) and wanted to give them the experience of a charter fishing trip where they could catch a variety of fish but also, just catch fish! The captain was great and very accommodating to my littles. We caught loads of Mangrove Snapper and a few other species of fish. His boat was very clean and equipment well maintained, both I appreciated. We shared good conversation and learned about the area as we fished. I would recommend Gulf Coast Charter Service and my family hopes to charter with them again in the future.
This trip was beyond incredible. Captain Fabian is so knowledgeable and very friendly. We absolutely hammered the reds, caught a blue fish and a snook. All decently large. If you are looking for a guide look not further. He is absolutely amazing and I will be booking a good. 15/10 recommend!
Capt Fabian nailed it and earned thoae 5 stars. 1) excellent and proactive communication- made it easy and provided confidence for our trip 2) His slip was easy to get to, find and had plenty of parking. 3) His boat and gear were clean and everything was very organized and professional 4) He was a great guide, knew the waters and a mot of history - also put us on the fish and took pir requests 5) Capt Fabian is super personable and was great with our kids.
