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.

    We didnt get to meet Captain Ron but we had a great time with his employee Captain Lucas. Lucas did a fantastic job of explaining what he was doing each step of the process. The water was rough and the wind was blowing extremely hard but the big boat kept us comfortable. Even through the tough weather conditions, Lucas put us on the fish and we had a blast! Would highly recommend them. Dont let Lucas young age fool you. He is great at what he does. William & Jessica

    Trip: Peacock Bass: Fly or Spin

  • ★★★★★
    We went out with Captain Anthony last night and had a wonderful time. A native Miamian, he knew the area and knewvwhere the fish were. We had my 12 year old nephew with us and Anthony was great with him. He took the time to instruct the young lad in proper technique and made sure his rig was baited up and in the water as much as possible. The result? My little nephew outfished us all and he was thrilled. The only problem is we cant shut him up. He is still going on about the adventure declaring it his "best fishing trip ever". We tied into several tarpon that bested us novice tarpon fisherman, but came home with a nice mess of large mangrove snapper that we a lot of fun to catch and are now being breaded, fried and served up with slaw, hushpuppies and fries for a real southern lunch. The big ones are going on the grill whole to be deboned table-side with garlic lemon butter and served with mushroom risotto and ceasar salad. Plenty for the whole family. I heartily recommend a trip out with Captain Anthony for a good time, good eats and memories for a lifetime. Thank you Captain!

    Trip: South Florida Inshore fishing

  • ★★★★★
    Was in town for Thanksgiving with the fam and had an awesome time out with Capt. Ricky. The boat is super spacious, dry, comfortable, and fast and Capt uses nothing but top of the line tackle. We caught some nice wahoo on the troll that made for awesome sashimi, ceviche, and fish tacos back home. We also came across some floating debris and pitched baits at some Tripletail. They were super picky but Richard and Elliott knew how to make em eat! Thanks guys, will be back soon. – Jonathan with Captain Experiences

    Trip: Reel Rush Lauderdale Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    My family and I had an epic day with Taco! Taco and his mate were super welcoming as we jumped on board, and it was clear he runs a super clean and well maintained sportfish. We were on fish in no time with my brother-in-law fighting the fish of his life, a giant Amberjack! From there, we spread the kites and caught mahi, bonita, and a beautiful sailfish. Whole fam had a blast and Taco stole the show, we'll be back! – Jonathan with Captain Experiences

    Trip: Florida Fishing Spectacular

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Jim was fantastic. From the start, our communication was quick and easy. He prepared us with what to expect and what the game plan would be for the day. Upon arrival, Captain Jim immediately welcomed us and briefed us on the safety protocols. Once we were out in the ocean trolling, he monitored and prepared all of the lines while entertaining us and feeding us with endless information. Once the fish was on, he coached us through the reel-in process and expertly removed the fish from the line, and encouraged all of us to take a photo with the fish. We would certainly recommend Captain Jim and we will be re-booking with him in the near future!

    Chris is an awesome guide. Real Miami native who knows the bay better than anyone. He really cares about fishing and he is not on a hard "trip ending" time. Chris also suggested some local Miami restaurants and took us there after our trip. A certified damn good guide in my book.

    We had a wonderful time with Edmond. He was very prepared for the trip and he did his best to make sure we had every opportunity to catch fish. The bite was tough to get today and we had a few hits that slipped the hook. The weather was perfect and we enjoyed ourselves. I would go with him again.
