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.

Had a great day! Got hooked up right away on a very large tarpon, barracuda and ended with a 7’ bull shark. He knows how and where to fish.

8 Hour Trip – Backcountry Fishing

Was interested in catching Tarpon. Eric was great - knows where to go and worked hard to put me on fish. The afternoon got pretty windy but with a lot of persistence I hooked and landed a large Tarpon. Already planning a different trip with him.

Tarpon had lock jaw but that didn’t stop us bending the rod. Caught and released a 300lb bull shark and and a mess of nice size Crevalle Jack’s. Will definitely be looking Captain Eric up for my next trip.

Great trip with my son this past week. Captain Eric put us on lady fish, trout and snook the whole trip! Tons of fish were eaten at Wahoo’s afterwards. We had great conversation and learned a lot. Thanks again. We’ll be rebooking for our next trip down.
