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.

    Kenny was AMAZING! The fish weren’t biting but we had such a great time! Richard was unable to take us out due to a scheduling conflict but Kenny was there to take us out. He took us to several different spots and tried all the tricks but they just weren’t biting. Had the BEST time with him and would definitely book with Kenny again!

    Griffin was excellent. He was very knowledgeable above where and when to fish for each species. We caught everything except a redfish, if we had caught one it would have been a “grand slam”. I highly recommend him as a guide.

    James is one incredible individual above the captain title, with that said he moved us around on top of fish all day. Incredibly easy going and ask us exactly what we wanted and man did he deliver. Equipment was fantastic, boat is very nice and has tons of live bait. We couldn’t be happier with this charter and will absolutely take this trip again. I highly recommend as this was above and beyond an incredible experience!!!

    Wonderful day on the water! Jesse took our family of 6 out for a full day. We did a little bit of everything, inshore & off shore fishing, dolphin watching, even a great lunch recommendation stop. Now back to our VRBO to cook some of the days catch! Jesse gets our 10/10 rating, we had a GREAT day!

    Dalton did a great job and highly recommend anyone looking at fishing. He’s super knowledgeable, puts bait on, takes fish off, will cast for if needed, filet your fish up, etc. Very personable and easy to talk to and hang out with. He got us on a ton of fish and took extra time with our 13 year old.
