About Your Trip

Step aboard with Captain Eric for a one-of-a-kind bowfishing adventure through the Peace River and Gasparilla Sound! These waters are loaded with fast-moving targets, and with Captain Eric at the helm, you’ll get the perfect mix of precision, excitement, and non-stop action.

Each trip is designed for small groups, with room for 4 guests on the boat and 3 shooters lined up at a time—keeping the action steady and the shots flowing. Whether you want a quick 2-hour taste, a solid 4-hour run, or a full 6-hour hunt, Captain Eric will get you on the fish.

The majority of trips run at night, when the shallow flats come alive and the bowfishing lights reveal schools of invasive and rough fish cruising just under the surface. That glowing setup creates an electric atmosphere as you line up your shots and let arrows fly. For something different, Captain Eric also runs daytime trips throughout the year targeting Stingrays—a whole new kind of thrill for bowfishing enthusiasts.

All equipment is included, from bows and arrows to lights and safety gear. Captain Eric makes sure everything is dialed in so all you need to bring is your game face and some snacks or drinks for the ride. After the trip, he’ll clean your catch so you can head home with fresh fillets and great stories.

Whether you’re brand new to bowfishing or already hooked on the sport, this trip delivers fast-paced fun and an unforgettable way to experience Florida’s inshore waters. Step up to the deck, draw back, and see why bowfishing with Captain Eric is an adventure you’ll want to repeat.
