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.

6 Hour Trip – Backcountry Trip

Captain Eric was a wealth of knowledge, great conversations, and an over all incredible time. I will book again on my next trip down. From seeing the manatees, dolphins in the mud ring , the variety of sharks, bucket list fish catches, and an overall great time. Not only was he a great captain, but a great teacher.

We’ve fished with Captain Eric multiple times now and have future trips booked with him. He knows the water like the back of his hand and can tell you as much about the fish you catch as anyone. He is extremely friendly and works to keep the fish coming on the boat.

Dylan was an amazing captain, weather was forcing us into some tough situations and he did not question anything. He got us on the fish and made it up on the fly while the weather was a big factor. 10/10 would recommend booking with these guys. They know how to get it done!
