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.

    We never fished Florida before so we hooked up with Capt. Jake so he could show us around, he was amazing! We started out with lures, did a little jigging and finished with some live bait. He knows every hole and structure in the bay. We caught redfish, sea trout, mangrove, snapper and king mackerel. Can’t wait for the next vacation, will definitely be calling him again. I would recommend him to anyone that’s looking for an exciting day on the water.

    My son and I had a great time out on the water with Captain Randy! My son, who is 7, had never caught a fish all on his own and he ended up catching more than I did that day! Captain Randy stayed right with him helping him get his hook baited and back in the water every cast and then cleaned the fish we kept so we could take them down the road and have them cooked up for lunch. It was an experience we will be talking about for years. We can't wait to come back and do it again!

    We had an unforgettable experience on the water with Tim. My girlfriend is new to fishing, and Tim did an amazing job catering to her needs, making sure she felt comfortable and confident throughout the trip. We were constantly hooked up on fish, which made for non-stop excitement and an incredible adventure. I couldn’t recommend this experience enough—10/10! If you’re looking for a top-notch fishing trip, this is the one to book.
