About Your Trip

Join Captain Eric for an amazing Tampa Bay fishing experience! Tampa Bay is a world-class fishing destination that features a range of marine habitats and a rich variety of sportfish species, all the way from the backcountry to the deeper waters. Captain Eric has fished this area since 1979, and he has the knowledge, skills and experience to put you on amazing fish, whether that means hitting the ship channel (up to 50ft deep) for Grouper, chumming, and throwing cut bait for Tarpon (Summer months), Snapper, Tripletail, Spanish and King Mackerel, Reds, much more under the Bridges---Tampa Bay really has it all.

When you fish with Captain Eric, you'll be totally taken care of aboard his 24' Blazer Bay center console. She's an ideal boat for this area, with a hull profile meant to cut through chop and a shallow draft that allows you to fish the backcountry. She sports a powerful 300-HP Suzuki engine, and is fully equipped with a GPS, fishfinder, live well for your bait, and an ice box for your keepers.

Captain Eric is full of tips and tricks to help improve your fishing and send you home with great memories and awesome pictures, plus a delicious dinner! He'll keep your keepers on ice until you're back on the dock, where he'll clean them for you. He also supplies all the gear you'll need, including rods, reels, bait, and tackle. All you need to bring along is proper clothing and sunscreen, and you're in for a terrific trip.
