Yes, my father and I have fished with Lou at least 30 times over the last 20 years. I think he is an excellent guide, very professional and determined to put his clients on the fish. E-mail me if you would like any more information.

capt. Lou Austin is ok if you want to make a meat haul, using live bait in the ditch at three mile island. I would suggest Capt. Todd Casey At spifishing.com. It just depends how you want to fish.

I'd have to agree..

Actually anyone you charter out of Hi-Way bait stand is going to be a meat haul. Most of the guides out of Jims Pier and a few other independents will put you on better quality fish but you'll have to work for them. Most of the guides i know site cast for reds and trout in skinny waters. It's up to you, If you wanna go and catch a bunch of fish, they are loading up on trout in the channel under poppers with shrimp (aka: ditch draggers). If not you'll be grinding all day lookin for that hoss in the flats.

i have used Skipper Mock i think he is one of the best guide on SPI. He dosent use live bait though if that is what you were looking for.

Lou Austin does not guide out of R&R hiway baitstand. He is on Family Court Marina or White Sands. He does like to anchor on the ditch & fish with bait. R&R has some good captains that can do whatever you like to do. Capt Gencho is great with bait, Capt Jaime & Capt Vere Wells are very good at sight fishing with arties. Capt Russell can usually put you on some great topwater fishing....Then there is Capt Thomas
