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 kingfish fishing in Alabama?

The most popular season for kingfish fishing in Alabama is summer, and most anglers book their trips 35 days in advance.

    Trip: 5 Hour Bottom Fishing & Trolling

    5 out of 5 stars. My granddaughter loved Jeff. He tried his best to get the big redfish to the boat with her, just spit the hook out at the last second.

    Trip: 2hr Family fun fishing trip

  • ★★★★★
    The captain was great. Put us on the fish and we hauled them in. All five of us limited out on B liner’s in a little over an hour. The deck hand, first mate was definitely awesome. As hot as the fishing was he hustled all the time and kept everything going great. Both were polite and professional.

    Trip: 5 or 6 Hour Bottom/Trolling Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Unforgettable First-Time Fishing Experience! Our family recently went on a bottom fishing charter out of Gulf Shores, AL, and it was nothing short of amazing. This was our first time doing anything like this, and Capt Will and deckhand Jaden made it an outstanding adventure from start to finish. They were incredibly patient and knowledgeable, walking us through everything we needed to know and making sure we felt comfortable and confident. We had originally booked a trolling trip, but they happily accommodated our request to switch to bottom fishing—and we’re so glad they did! The action was nonstop, and while we couldn’t keep everything we caught, we still brought home plenty. The boat was clean and well-equipped, and Jaden did a fantastic job cleaning and packing our catch. It was clear they both take pride in what they do, and it made all the difference. If we ever book another charter, Capt Will will be our first call. Highly recommend this crew for anyone looking for a fun, family-friendly fishing experience!
