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 topwater fishing charter in Hudson?

    Captain Nick, got us on the fish. He was very patient and taught me a lot about fly fishing for Red Fish. I fly fish streams a rivers out west where I live so this was a different experience. I highly recommend Captain Nick and will be back in the future.

    This Captain Ben was AWESOME ! ! ! Took wife and two grandkids with me, we caught more fish then you could count. All fish were good size and quite a number of them were keepable, which he filleted when we got to dock size. Plan to schedule another outing with him shortly and HIGHLY recommend him to everyone!!!

    Had a fantastic morning on the water with Captain Nick! He is a great guide, coach & company on the water. He knows the waters, and the fish and was patient & encouraging when I had a bad cast or failed to set the hook. I did manage to land a nice black drum that is on the menu for my in-laws tonight. I'll be back soon with our three young men!
