OUR GUIDES

Captain Eric Wallace
Owner / Guide

Capt. Eric Wallace is a life-long guide and fanatic saltwater fisherman and fly tier who has devoted his life to catching fish in and around the ocean and sharing that experience with others.

His knowledge of the ocean ecosystem, his patience, enthusiasm and teaching ability have won him accolades and features in magazines such as Fly Fishing in Saltwaters, Gray's Sporting Journal, Saltwater Fly Fishing, On The Water, Outdoor Life, among many others. He is a creative fly-tier who has developed dozens of patterns for both Northeast saltwater and tropical flats fishing. His flies and techniques will be featured in a new Dave Klausmeyer saltwater fly book, coming Fall 2007.

Eric has taught hundreds of people the techniques necessary to catch everything from striped bass to tarpon, steelhead and trout. His experiences guiding in other areas of the country: the Florida Keys, the Frying Pan River in Colorado, the Deschutes in Oregon, and fabled trout waters of Michigan guarantee clients a memorable trip, regardless of experience level, conditions or weather.

As the premier guide for striped bass on the flats of Casco Bay, Eric has earned invites to the Scott Fly Rod Pro Staff and Ross Reels Pro Team. He and his wife Melissa and twin daughters, Heidi and Emily, live in Maine and spend winters in the lower Florida Keys.

Testimonials

Capt. Dave Sherwood
New Meadows River/Upper Casco Bay

Capt. Dave Sherwood has built a reputation as one of the hardest working guides on Upper Casco Bay. He is a true fishing fanatic, a dedicated conservationist and his enthusiasm is second to none. We are looking forward to his return as we have lost him – only temporarily, don't worry – to the tarpon and sailfish of Costa Rica. You can check in with Dave through his photoblog, www.wildfilephoto.com.

Dave's other passion is writing about his favorite sport. His articles and photographs have appeared in Fly Fishing in Saltwater, Fly Rod and Reel, Tide Magazine, On the Water and the L.L.Bean Fishing Catalog.
