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.

    Christian knows where to go and how to fish each location. We were constantly on fish. We wanted eatable fish and shark, Christian delivered! He is very ethical and a safe boat captain. I would recommend him to anyone looking to catch fish and I hope to fish with him again.

    Trip: Inshore Fishing Daytona Beach

  • ★★★★★
    We started at 7am and Capt Arron was ready and waiting. He took us right out to a couple of sunken reefs and we started catching fish right away. Hooked a 5.5 foot black tip shark and alot of other fish. I would recomend this charter any day of the week.

    Trip: Offshore Port Orange

  • ★★★★★
    We had a lot of fun! Liam was very professional and very patient! Our son gets “uninterested” quickly, but Liam did his best to keep him engaged and fishing! He made sure we caught a variety of fish. We caught puffers, sheepshead, lady fish, red snapper, catfish and a stingray. We couldn’t keep any, as they were too small or not good to eat, but he made sure he put us on them and that we were catching something! He even let our son “drive” the boat! Will definitely schedule again! Thanks Liam!
