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.

    Trip: Key West Sportfishing Trip

  • ★★★★★
    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.

    Captain Greg provided an exceptional fishing experience for our family yesterday! He was incredibly patient and engaging with my two grandchildren, making sure they had a fantastic time. His knowledge of the local fishing spots was impressive, and his skills as a captain were evident throughout the trip. We caught plenty of fish, and the entire outing was smooth and enjoyable. We would absolutely recommend Captain Greg and will definitely be fishing with him again in the future!

    Captain JT was awesome! Boat is super clean. Our day was very windy, so JT improvised and kept us close to the shore. Still caught a bunch of fish, even a couple big Red Fish. Kids had a blast. Would definitely recommend.

    Trip: Half Day Trip - 22' Cape Horn

  • ★★★★★
    Bert Weber I did not have Cameron as my guide due to a scheduling mix-up. I did have Josh as a fill-in and he did a fantastic job finding some nice redfish. Luckily, I had flexibility as far as my time and the afternoon trip worked out well. My original request was for a fly fishing experience...Josh informed that this was not a viable option due to water conditions. All considered...it was a good day of fishing and I would recommend Josh to anyone.

    Had an excellent morning catching multi-species of fish. First time ocean fishing with my four sons during spring break. 4 hour trip start to finish yielded a total of 40ish fish. Highly recommended. Capt Cory cleaned our catches right at the dock.

    Really good time. Even tho the fishing was a little slow, captain didn’t give up really did his best to put me on fish and it ended up paying off with a few good ones at the end. Also had a few big ones break off. But hey that’s fishing.

    Gage and Noah were great. They knew where to find the fish and kept us catching several kinds of fish throughout the trip. We went as a family and they kept the kids busy and were a big help showing them exactly what to do. I would definitely recommend them!
