Awesome Trip!

6hr offshore4 adults2 children

It was too windy to go offshore, but Captain Eric and his First Mate Jace made sure that we had a great time. We caught Snapper, Redfish and even a Bonnet Head Shark! We learned some tips and tricks, got a couple of yummy recipes to try and had great conversation all day. This was an awesome family feel trip- exactly what we were looking for. We highly reccoment E&J- we’ll be back!

    Fantastic trip!

    4 Hour Trip • 3 adults

    We only took the 4 hour trip, but it was amazing! The captain and his son were outstanding in every way. Found some trash in the water on the way and he made a considerable extra effort to remove it. The fishing was tough today, but we still caught quite a bit. He gave us a lot of information about the area and types of fish we could expect, and was spot on. They cleaned our catch for us, helped our special needs son with every aspect of the process, helped us with bait and taught us the correct style of presentation. All around fantastic experience, and we would definitely book with them again!

    Greatest charter for Estero/Bonita Springs

    4 Hour Trip • 4 adults • 1 child

    Great charter combining off shore reef fishing with shallow water shark fishing. We caught many fish thanks to Captain Eric - Spanish mackerel, mangrove groupers, groupers, croakers, Jacks, sheepshead, blues, and catfish. We had 3 keepers that were fried that night - you cannot beat the taste of fish caught and cooked on the same day. This charter is highly recommended for groups with kids and for the serious fisherman. Best charter ever!!!! We will be back to fish for tarpon, sharks, and grouper as well as whatever else is in season.

    EJ Fishing charters

    6 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    Our group went for a 6hr morning charter with Captain Eric and his First Mate Jas ( his son) They got us on the fish right off the bat. They both worked hard making sure our rods always had bait on and removing the different species of fish fish we caught. Cap explained the best way to fish each type of bait to increase our chance for success. He kept on the go all day hunting for the fish not just sitting on a dead spot. We fished different bait, casted spoons, trolled whatever it took to make our trip the most productive and fun for us. We highly recommend his service. Best price, very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. Can’t beat that. Thanks Cap for a most enjoyable day. See ya next time.

    Beauiful Day

    4 Hour Trip • 3 adults • 1 child

    Our day fishing was wonderful. E&J went above and beyond to make our day great. The cold snap made the fishing slow. E&J made sure we tried many locations and tactics. They strive for success. They took the time to teach us many new things. We were looking for a good day fishing and that is what we got. Our rods were always tended and we were never short for good conversation. We were even able to see dolphins (not good for fishing but a delight). I would book with them again. I was looking for a fun family day fishing and that is what I received. I hope to do it again next year.

    Thank You! It was a pleasure meeting y’all and fishing with you. Hopefully we can take you all out again.
