Eric was an awesome captain. We caught a variety of fish: snapper, grouper, catfish, hammerhead shark, sheephead, pompano, blowfish, and sea robin. There were a ton of dolphins that swam near or right up on the boat for over an hour. Eric assisted with everything on board and during to make the 4hr trip enjoyable and successful. We had plans right after, so we caught/released, but Eric would have cleaned them for us if we wanted to keep the fish. We would highly recommend Eric and his fishing adventure.
Captain Eric did a great job putting us onto fish early in our trip. We caught several species of fish including sheepshead, catfish, snapper and coolest of all bonnet head sharks. we also scored a speckeled trout. He helped us all with our technique of hooking and landing our fish. Overall a great day and I recommend BonitaFish Charters for your next backcountry fishing trip.
Captain Eric got us on the fish right away. He was patient with me even when I kept getting my bait stolen 😆 Took us to multiple spots to keep us on the fish! Very knowledgeable about the area as well. I would definitely recommend!
Captain Eric was great. we caught several different species of fish. we caught speckled trout, Spanish mackerel, sheepshead and snapper. Captain Eric is super nice and layed back. Recommend his guid service to all.
