We booked an 8 hour trip. Eric took us trolling at the North Drop where we caught a few black fin tuna, bonita, and a barracuda. I started feeling a little nauseous so we went to fish a reef. We caught so many types of fish: red grouped, yellow fin grouper, red mutton, Atlantic shark, trigger fish, yellow tail snapper and a Mahi Mahi! At the end of the trip, I hooked a tarpon too! The boat was clean and Eric really took care of us! Eric was knowledgeable about the fish and the area. It was a great day and we totally recommend this trip!!
It was a pleasure having you!
We came in July when fishing is a little slower, but we still caught fish and ones that we were hopefully to catch and see. Captain Eric talked us through options on how many we would catch and type in different locations. Our daughter gets motion sickness, and he worked hard to help prevent it (as much as he had control of). He taught us lots about the area and fishing, lots more than a previous sea fishing experience we had on another island. We enjoyed eating what we caught. Would definitely book with him again!
Thanks, Erin!
We've been fishing in the Caribbean for over twenty years and bringing my son since he was ten. We first met Captain Eric years ago when he worked for another charter company. Over the years we've been out on many boats, but now that Captain Eric has his own boat, Virgin Islands Fishing Charter is the only boat we'll book. He's knowledgeable and works his ass off to get you the fish you want. So tip him well! And great with kids. I have some of my best memories with my son thanks to Captain Eric!
Brett, thank you!
Had a great trip with Captain Eric. I was most interested in being able to catch fish that we could cook and eat while staying in St. Thomas. Captain Eric put us on the fish and we had a great day chatting it up and laughing with him. We caught five or six different variety of fish that we could eat. We really appreciated him explaining everything he was doing and everything about the fish we were catching. He even cleaned them to my request so I could make sashimi / sushi when we got back to the house. Extremely knowledgeable captain. Thanks Captain Eric! Highly recommend.
Great photos. Lets do it again!
It was great trip captain worked with us to try and get some larger fish on the deck I was able to catch a black fin tuna while trolling. Trolling was tough but we still put fish like barracuda's and bonitas with the cherry being the blacking tuna in the boat and had fun doing it. For second part we did some reef fishing for what is now my best day of catching yellowtail snapper. We caught 11 different species of fish for our day of fishing. The bottom fishing is top notch. As a little bonus we did catch a shark as well.
