How much do Florida gigging fishing charters cost?

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 gigging charter in Florida?

The most popular season to go on a gigging charter in Florida is summer, and most anglers book their trips 12 days in advance.

Do I need a Florida fishing license and what are the bag limits in Florida?

    Great day on the bay with Captain Dwayne. He was super patient with our grandsons ages 8 and 13. We had a total group of nine. I was in the boat with Captain Dwayne, my wife , daughter-in-law and two grandsons. We had a second boat which Dwayne had arranged with Captain Tommy, my two sons and two granddaughters ages 11 and 13.we kept 68 fish between the two boats!! We all had a fun time. Thanks Dwayne and Tommy!!!

    Drew was awesome to fish with. The water was a little murky but he was able to find those hidden gem spots and get us some meat in the cooler.

    We had a great time shark fishing with Captain Drew! Captain Chris was very accommodating when we realized we initially booked an excursion for the wrong day. Thank you!
