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.

    Great day of fishing. Captain Andrew knows his Florida fishing. We were put on the fish right away. We moved around just to fill our requests of a few different species. At ease personality, great instructions, feedback, upbeat attitude.

  • ★★★★★
    What a fantastic day out on the water!!! My family came in from out of town looking to go on a deeper fishing trip. Greg came highly recommended both by the booking agent as well as previous reviews. Our hopes of having fun and catching some big fish were exceeded both by the amount and size of fish that were caught as well as the variety. Greg really showed his knowledge and experience by his ability to put us “on the fish”! Robbie, the captain’s right hand man, was so awesome as well! He kept all the lines baited and really taught us how to not lose the fish while reeling them in. The entire day was a blast and an unforgettable adventure!!! Thank you again Greg and Robbie from the Shannon Clan!

  • ★★★★★
    Hank hit all the right spots to catch enough tasty sheepshead fish and snapper to make a great fishing day out of a bad weather one. As a fair weather recreational boater and fisherman we were able to avoid the seasickness from the choppy windy conditions and make it worthwhile for the 3 teen boys for 4 hours hooking probably twenty fish with 8 good size keepers filleted by him right on shore.

    Cody was amazing. I have two teenage daughters and he was very patient and helpful. We caught over 80 fish in 3.5 hours. It was a great experience!! We caught Sea Trout, Ladyfish, Catfish, Jack Fish, Spanish Mackerel, and Flounder. When we return to Sarasota, we will be giving Cody a call for another trip.
