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 artificial lure fishing charter in Fort Lauderdale?

    Branden was an incredible guide! Super nice & helped teach when teaching was needed. Would highly recommend to anyone. If we’re ever back in the area we will use him again! Couldn’t have had a better afternoon.

    Trip: Deep Sea Sport Fishing Adventure

  • ★★★★★
    What an amazing day on the water. Mike and Fred used their skills and got us on some fish. We all reeled in some smaller blue streaks to get the trip going. My son caught a nice King Fish off a kite, my little guy got a shark and it was my husband that got a monster hammerhead about 8 1/2 feet long! Mike said this was a trophy and a catch of a lifetime. We had so much excitement and now a hammerhead for our wall with a story that will be told for ages. Thanks to Trey from Captain Experience for helping us to secure a boat and captain- he worked all day during a busy holiday week to find us our trip and he delivered. Mike and Fred were awesome guides and gave us the most unforgettable fishing trip. Thank you!

    Trip: Fort Lauderdale Sportfishing

    Justin was an amazing guide. He put us on fish immediately and when the bite slowed, we moved to a new spot. Limited out on Peacocks with plenty of time to load up on Oscars and Cichlids. He prepared us an awesome lunch and we headed out hunting. There were so many iguanas! We came home with 12 but could have been more than double that if we had better aim. We have already planned another trip with him in the spring.
