Overall Experience
The reviews for Redfish University and Captain Eric are mostly positive, with several five-star ratings. However, there is one negative review that highlights a poor experience with the captain.
Unreliable Captain
Chris Zummo, a customer, had a terrible experience with Captain Eric. They were canceled on last minute, after having been booked for months, despite having booked an Air BNB and taking leave to make the 8-hour drive. The captain became upset when Chris asked about the type of reels he had and said he would not take them, opting instead to take others who were on his waiting list. This left Chris feeling frustrated and unreliable, ultimately having to scramble to make other arrangements. The reviewer does not recommend using Redfish University.
Positive Experience
Most of the reviewers had an excellent experience with Captain Eric. They praised his professionalism, knowledge of the area, and ability to put them on fish. Several reviewers mentioned that they would be returning customers and highly recommend Redfish University.
