About ES Fishing

Eric Suarez – Tournament Angler & Veteran Advocate

Originally from Elizabeth, NJ, Eric Suarez is a dedicated service member of the New Jersey Air National Guard, where he serves as an Aircraft Inspector and Structural Shop Supervisor. 

Currently residing in Mount Holly, NJ, Eric continues to serve his country while pursuing his passion for competitive fishing.

An avid tournament angler, Eric is actively involved in the fishing community and currently competes in the Major League Fishing Toyota Series. His commitment to the sport extends beyond competition, as he is deeply invested in fostering mentor relationships with his sponsors. 

As a board member and treasurer of the Philadelphia Bass Busters, Eric takes part in organizing and fishing many of the club’s 19 derby events each year.

Beyond his tournament fishing, Eric is dedicated to supporting veterans, active-duty military members, and first responders. He collaborates with Woods n Water, a nonprofit organization that offers free services and outdoor activities, helping these groups reconnect with nature and build a strong sense of community.

Eric’s greatest joy is sharing his love of fishing with his son, passing on both his skills and his deep appreciation for the sport. Through his work, competition, and mentorship, Eric continues to make a positive impact both on and off the water.
