FISHING IS MY LIFE. PASSING IT ON IS MY PASSION.

Decades on the water. Commercial experience, bait shop management, custom tackle creation, and local knowledge passed down to the next generation.

ABOUT FISHING ERIC

Fishing isn’t just something I do on the weekends—it’s been my entire life. I’ve spent decades living and breathing every side of the saltwater world right here in Florida. From recreational fishing to working commercially for shrimp and crabs, to owning and managing local bait and tackle shops for decades, I’ve seen what works on the water from every single angle.

I’m not the kind of guy who sticks to just one style. I’ve done inshore flats, deep offshore, pier fishing, wade fishing, kayak fishing, and boat setups. Whether it takes live bait, cut bait, or artificials, I use whatever is catching fish at the time.

Over the years, I started creating my own custom tackle—designing specialized jigs, lures, rigs, and rigged floats to help people put more fish in the cooler. Today, between writing books, teaching private lessons, helping manage our T3 F youth events, and offering custom apparel, my goal is simple: share what I’ve learned and pass this amazing legacy on to you.
