Captain
Eric Scoble

Member since October 2014 Islamorada, United States

Background: Capt. Eric's grandfather was a successful fishing guide who first taught him how to fish. His father, also a fishing guide, continued his education. Eric's been a guide himself for over 15 years now and is on these waters almost every single day. Capt. Eric will make sure you have a nice day out on the water, whether you're fishing creeks, estuaries or flats.
Techniques: Eric's style of fishing is based around light tackle and fly fishing. Conditions of the day determine whether you use live bait or artificials, and whether you fish the creeks, estuaries or on top of the shallow water flats.

4 Hour Trip – Backcountry (AM)

Capt. Eric was an absolute treat. For one, he was extremely knowledgable about fishing, the birdlife, the general area and so easy to talk with the entire time. He made sure to be in an area where he knew the fish were (we landed 6 species in the short time out) even though it seemed like a long run to the spot. But he managed to put me on, coach me through and land a fish of a lifetime…. And then outrun a brewing thunderstorm to get us safely back to the dock perfectly on time. Cannot recommend... More
