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 charter by a very talented captain. His first mate was great also. We had a good time talking about various places we had both been while we fished. Dale

    Fishing was tough today with wind and a lack of current, but we managed to grab a few snook away from the hungry lemon sharks and some jack crevalle. Captain Nick was a great, easy-going quide, and I look forward to fishing with him again perhaps when Mother Nature is a little more accomodating!

    Despite the unfortunate windy weather, Captain Joel and first mate Todd made for a great day. They worked hard to get us on fish, and we had. Great day! We ended up catching 10 different species (mostly snapper) had plenty to eat I would highly recommend this charter to anyone!

    Trip: Marathon Offshore - 30’ Boca Grande

  • ★★★★★
    This was honestly one of the most disappointing charters I’ve had. I’ve booked numerous charters all over and in the keys. I realize fishing is fishing but we were greeted by a captain other than Dan, great guy but not what I expected honestly. Our vessel wasn’t prepared and ready to go so we waited longer than was expected and it pushed other plans back even further. We caught one 12.5 inch yellow that was big enough to keep. On other charters the boat is quite well prepared and ready to change course quickly to get you on the fish, not the case, granted it was a shorter booking I’ve still had much better equipped captains and vessels. So to spend the day bobbing for non existent apples was not at all ideal. It was so boring my wife and son chose to nap. So just be aware that if you choose this charter it may not go at all to plan. Sadly it was a waste of precious vacation time. I typically hate reading negative reviews and have never personally left one, but this seemed appropriate given the outcome. Good luck.

    Captain Joel did a fantastic job under adverse conditions! Put us on fish, and we caught our bucket list barracuda! Todd is by far one of the best mates I have fished with in 40 years! Good bedside manner. Thanks a million! Paul T

    We had a great time with Captain Joey. We are a family of 4 withlittle to no experience fishing. He was so great at helping our kids and teaching them to cast and reel. He was super patient which was so appreciated. He was very knowledgeable about the Everglades area and the fish that we could catch. I would highly recommend him for anyone interested in a fishing adventure in the area. You will definitely enjoy the adventure!

    Excellent day fishing with Captain Ron. Boated 10 snook and lots of hook ups. Caught others too but snook was the target. Great boat, comfortable ride and east to fish from.

    Sharing my birthday with my dad meant I developed a love of fishing from him at an early age. We celebrated my 59th and his 82nd birthday with 2 back-to-back fishing days with Captain Jack on the Jesse James. He was a careful listener to our requests and expertly guided us to fun fishing, filled with pro tips and great hospitality. Captain Jack truly wants you to have the best time possible and goes all the extra miles. So grateful we were able to fish with him and can't wait to do it again in the future!
