    Captain Eric is the captain to make it happen! Left the doc around 5:40 and bait was in the water 15 mins later and first fish in the boat by 6:08 am. He knew the spots and kept them coming! My wife is going be eating good this week:)

    Great morning on the water.

    5 hour • 3 adults

    Captain America (Eric) was on time, we were on time so it started out great. Hooked a few early on - pulled in a couple of nice fish - even a sting ray which was interesting. Captain kept his head on a swivel keeping us safe from others. Was impressed with use of the kill switch wristband. Have been on too many guide trips to count and don’t think I’ve ever seen another be so consistent. Thank you and see you again soon. (When it cools off a bit).

    Hot July Morning Fish with Capt Eric

    5 Hour Trip • 1 adult

    Arrived at Cove Harbor at 5:50 for a 6am push off. Capt Eric had the boat in the water running lights on and ready for me. We took off. We fished areas with lots of bait, saw many redfish tailing within our casting range. His boat deck was great for standing, the trolling motor got us into shallow water, and the power pole allowed us to work a place with stealth. Each area in Aransas Bay was teeming with bait that we watched scatter when birds swung low overhead. We can across dolphin in a couple hot spot places Capt Eric found to be good in the past trips. This hot July 27 morning with water temperature at 90 degrees, the fish just weren’t taking what we offered. One undersized red, one hardhead and a bonnet shark. It’s like they say - you can get where they are but you can’t make them take your bait. I enjoyed my half day fishing with Capt Eric. I will call on him again when I get down to Rockport.

    Captain Eric will put you on the fish!

    5 hour • 4 adults

    Eric took us out for a tournament and went above and beyond putting us on fish. His boat is awesome and can get in any tight spot he wants to go. He had really nice equipment and provided a really fun day. We HIGHLY recommend fishing with Eric with families, friends and tournaments. Can't wait to be back out on the water with him soon.

What's biting with Hi-Duke's Guide Service in Rockport

The fall Redfish run brings with it some monster creatures, along with plenty of delicious Trout and Flounder. Don't miss out on the chance to go offshore, though, with Marlin adding to the star-studded cast in the deep.
