Captain Eric is a licensed and certified US Coast Guard Master Captain. A true Florida native, he grew up freshwater fishing with his father and grandfather. Much of Eric’s childhood consisted of dropping his backpack off in the garage after school, and hitting neighborhood lakes till dark. This is where Eric developed his passion for fishing and true appreciation for nature.

However, when his father introduced him to saltwater fishing as a young teenager, everything changed. Saltwater fishing still provided the serenity and tranquility he craved, with the added benefit of a wider variety of fish, and much bigger fish! Eric has spent most of his adult life fishing all waters around the state of Florida, honing his skills for each specific species.

Half Day Trip – Nearshore/Offshore

Great all around!

VERIFIED

Eric is incredibly pleasant & helpful throughout. Any time they weren’t biting, he would move to another spot where they were. This is the third time that we booked a trip through Fishing Booker and without any question, this was the best. No hesitations recommending him & his outfit.

Had a great time on the water. Captain Eric definitely knows where the hot spots are. There were 5 of us total on trip. Everyone put something on the boat. When things got cold he moved to the next spot. We'll definitely use again
