  Best Trip Ever!!

  Fall Fishing trip (4 hour) on June 16, 2026 • 3 adults

  Captain Eric went above and beyond to make our fishing charter an unforgettable experience for me and the kids. From start to finish, he was knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely focused on making sure we had a great time. If you’re looking for a fishing charter in the New Smyrna Beach area, I highly recommend Captain Eric. He’ll be getting all of our future business and referrals!

  3/4 day with Captain Eric

  6 Hour Trip | Morning on August 6, 2023 • 3 adults • 1 child

  Eric knows what he's doing. We wanted shark fishing and he delivered. First we got to chase the shark bait. Bonita. That is one scrappy fish. Ten times the fight of a largemouth. Then the sharks. What a blast!!! We had to double team the rigs, because they did not want to be caught!!! Got our limit and moved on to some non-stop action on trout, bluefish, etc.. Just a great day with a great Captain. I've been boating for years and have never seen that kind of skill driving a boat. His first mate Dalton kept us baited, rigged, gaffed the big ones, and was just doing all the " dirty work" for us all day. At the end of the day Eric cleaned our catch and bagged it up for us. I would give him ten stars if I could.

  Better Than Could Have Imagined

  4 Hour Trip (PM) on June 4, 2023 • 4 adults

  Our son wanted a big bite and a fish with a fight and he got just that with Captain Eric! My son was able to fight and reel to the boat a Tarpon. We also caught 3 Red Drums, 2 Jack Crevalles, and some Mangrove Snappers. Not only did we catch some amazing fish, we were able to see dolphins, manatees, a pufferfish swam by, sea turtles by his dock, and when my daughter was tired of fishing she enjoyed the company of the puppy! It was beyond what we could have asked for! If you are looking for a fishing carter look no further, go with Captain Eric and Down South Fishing Company! Real people that will make you feel comfortable from the second you book! Captain Eric is friendly and will talk you through how to get the catch to the boat so you do not lose it! Believe me, this is worth the experience!
