Extremely knowledgeable with a focus on having a good time.  We fished in many different areas and caught several different species.  It was a great day and I would recommend BLACKWATER charters for all types of fishing in Islamorada.

Dylan was very knowledgeable and did his best to make sure we were on the fish. Caught several species and had a great day on the water. Would highly recommend for the whole family young or old!

Dillon Scoble wax a fantastic captain/ guide.  He knew his way around the reefs and backwaters.  This was a bucket list trip for me and Dillon did not disappoint!  Thanks Dillon!

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.

Booked a half day backcountry outing with Capt Eric for my wife and I as part of our 25th anniversary celebratory trip to the Keys (yes I’m a fortunate man!) Promised my wife a fun day on the water with some fishing thrown in. :) Had hoped to perhaps try my hand at some Tarpon on the fly but a cold front and steady north winds diverted us to a trout hunt instead. Eric delivered putting us on a mess of trout, lady fish and assorted others.  Ended up with just two legal for the creel but had a great time and learned a ton about the area and the local fishing scene. Also enjoyed the ride out to the marine sanctuary. Was made all the better by the Captain’s friendly nature and good conversation. So much so that I look forward to my next outing with him and can recommend to others without hesitation. Next time here’s hoping I can start my schooling in the saltwater side of fly fishing as well. Tight lines all!
