Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

    Captain Walt and Keith were fantastic! Extremely welcoming, knowledgeable, and helpful, plus great to crack a joke and share a laugh with. The waves were choppy when we went out and Walt & Keith guided us through it and took us around the area when we eventually got too sick haha. Highly recommend! I’ll be coming to them again in the future.

    Trip: Red Snapper Round Up

  • ★★★★★
    Bradley was very good with making these 10-15 year old boys make sure they knew what to do and had a good time of fun. He made sure they each had a rod, baited. Nd could cast it where they needed. For two first time fisherman, they had a blast. The 10 yr old catch the most fish. We got back to the condo, and he told his dad let’s go fishing tomorrow. Thanks for a great first trip, saltwater fishing for theses boys.

    Trip: Inshore/Nearshore Experience

  • ★★★★★
    Marty was great! He told us exactly what to expect from the water conditions and the possibility of a rough ride. We didn't think it was too rough at all. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the types of fish we could expect to catch and how to catch them! We all had a great time and would totally book with Marty again. Thank you for helping us make fun memories!

    Trip: Inshore/Nearshore Experience

  • ★★★★★
    Our originally scheduled time fell through because the fishing conditions were not optimal. Marty was upfront that it was too windy to catch any fish even though he said he would still honor our original reservation if we chose to do that. We were able to re-schedule until the next afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed our trip, catching several Spanish mackerel. We enjoyed some of Marty's fish tales while we were out and will schedule with him again if we are in the area.

    These guys came to our rescue! We had a trip set with another company and they last minute canceled. Circle Hook took us out on a quick 2 hour trip. We were a team of beginners including 2 kids under 10. Our captain taught us a few tricks and we came home with a cooler full of fish.
