Fishing with Austin

4 Hour Trip – Inshore (PM)5 adults1 child

We had the best time with Austin! He was very knowledgeable about where to go and what kinds of fish we would find that day. We took the four hour trip and we caught fish all day long! Mostly mackerel and red snapper. Loved his boat! It was in great shape and had plenty of seating. This was the highlight of our trip for sure! If we go back, we would definitely pick Austin again!

    Great day on the water!

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) • 2 adults

    Austin got us out on the water first thing in the morning, and the fish started biting as soon as our hooks hit the water. He was very knowledgeable about each species we fished, as well as the area we were fishing. Friendly, helpful, and professional every step of the way! We ended the trip with several trout, mangrove snapper, and black drum, as well as a few beautiful redfish that were just a tad under size to keep. It was a fantastic experience start to finish, and highly recommend to anyone.

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) • 2 adults

    I chartered a 1/2 day morning trip with Capt Austin last February for our trip to Orange Beach, AL in early June, 2024. my Wife, 17yr old Granddaughter, and myself met Capt Austin at Happy Harbor as planned at 7am. Capt is very courteous, well-mannered, and professional. His fishing equipment is well-maintained, clean, and in working order. We fished the Outer Bay Area for a couple of hours and caught a dozen fish (Mackeral, Trigger Fish, and Red Fish). The weather was sunny and windy. The views were picturesque. Sea life was abundant, ie Bait fish, Dolphins, a few Sharks, a huge Manta Ray…. We returned to the Inner Bay area and finished our morning fishing. Overall an enjoyable trip exploring areas that we have not seen on our previous trip to OB. Would recommend Capt Austin as a fishing guide for this area. Tight Lines, and Keep your Rod Tip up!

    Size Does Not Matter

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) • 2 adults

    In a world of too busy, all work, and no time, sometimes you just have to get out on the water with a Captain that knows their stuff. Captain Austin was both helpful and highly enjoyable to work spend time with. We hit like 8 different spots, got multiple hits, and apparently fed a lot of fish our bait. We did actually catch some fish, but they were ALL well below trophy level. However, I got the chance to spend 4+ hours with someone I care about, saw them relax, and have great fun. That is what matters. But a fish large enough to eat would have been nice. Great day, worth every penny.

    It was a great afternoon with Captain Austin. He’s friendly, engaging and put me and my boys on an ice chest full of redfish, trout and whiting. Can’t say enough good things about him. Thanks!
