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 jigging charter in Fort Lauderdale?

    He lacks social skills.Not very friendly or having a bad day.Didn't want to carry a conversation no small talk or nothing.Tipped him 20% anyways. I've been on over a dozen guided trips in my life. He ranks the worst with me. No personality.

    Captain Alek is the best of the best. This was my first time doing a charter and he made sure it wasn’t the last. He took us to super busy spots and we caught some monster fish. If I could leave more stars I would.

    Great day on the water with Captain Chris. Chris is a friendly, experienced fisherman and a skilled boat Captain. He also knew a lot about the birds and fish on the water. I would definitely recommend him for a charter.

    Trip: South Florida Inshore Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    Manny and his crew are the best! Very knowledgeable and also fun to be on a boat with. We went out in January when conditions were not the best for fishing, but the crew made it their mission to get us some fish, and even kept the boat out a little longer for us. We ended up with two blackfin tuna which they fileted for us and we had a great dinner. Highly recommend this charter!

    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.
