About Captain Austin

Captain Austin Porter

Owner & Head Captain, Gettin' Jiggy Fishing Charters

Captain Austin Porter has been fishing the waters off Miami since he was very young. With 47 IGFA world record fish to his name, he brings an unmatched level of skill and knowledge to every single charter.

Born and raised in Miami, Austin grew up on the water and never left. He learned from legendary Miami captain Ray Rosher and knows every reef, wreck, current, and seasonal pattern from the shallow flats to the deep blue — knowledge that took decades to build and that he puts to work for you on every trip.

His 47 IGFA world records speak for themselves. From sailfish on kites to broadbill swordfish in the deep, Captain Austin has chased and caught the most prized species in South Florida at the highest level of the sport.

Whether you're stepping on a fishing boat for the first time or you're a seasoned tournament angler, Austin tailors every charter to give you the best possible experience on the water. Gettin' Jiggy isn't just a charter — it's a world-class fishing operation.
