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.

What month is best for on a jigging charter in Gulf Shores?

    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: Deep Dropping in Pensacola

  • ★★★★★
    Hey Captain Experiences! Captain Eddie and Fisher are a great crew. Captain Eddie did his best to get us on fish and he did, we just had trouble with the dolphins stealing our bait. As much as the dolphins are cute and cool to see, they can be annoying to say the least. Fisher was very informative, not only about fish and dolphins, but also about how weather and moon cycles play out into catching fish as well. The boat is a very nice 55 for boat. Very clean and in top notch condition for the year! We recommend Captain Eddie and Fisher very highly. When we come back to Gulf shores, we will be calling on Captain Experiences, Captain Eddie and Fisher. We feel we have made two new friends. Thanks for the great and fun time guys. Bill

    Trip: 6-Hour Bottom/Trolling - 55' Gillman

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Chase got us our snapper limit in a 4 hour trip. We had to go directly through a pretty good storm (still pretty cool) but came out of it and started catching fish immediately. Great guy, knows his stuff. Definitely recommend by my two teens and their two best friends, my wife and I !!!

  • ★★★★★
    Stephen took our trip on short notice after another captain canceled the day of the trip. My son was very excited about going out so Stephen taking the trip meant a lot. On next to no notice, Stephen met us at the dock and put us on limits of fish and was a pleasure to be around the whole time. Would 100% fish with him again.

    Trip: Orange Beach Extended Offshore

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Stephan put us on the fish! Logan the deckhand earned his money making sure all 6 of our lines were baited and in the water at all times. They're both friendly and knew what they were doing. We limited out on snapper and caught a ton that we had to throw back. Would highly recommend them to anyone unless it's the week we're coming back down because we'll have them booked forsure.

    Hello, my Grandson and I had an excellent experience on our four hour fishing trip with Captain Sawyer. Sawyer did an awesome job working with my grandson Will(13yrs) on tackle and technique on his first off shore fishing trip for red snapper. He missed a bunch, Sawyer was extremely patient. Will caught his limit and then some. Would highly recommend Sawyer as a guide and thank him for an awesome trip.
