How much do Marathon mako shark 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.

    Great fishing trip with Ken! Really an expert on this place and a lot of patience with me. Recomend 100%

    Trip: Fishing The Florida Everglades

  • ★★★★★
    Ken gave me genuinely one of my best days on the water! Caught a bunch of fish: reds, snook and sea trout. Ken knew exactly what he was doing and was never in doubt I’d catch fish, even with little to no experience fishing these species. Time was very well spent and I got basically what felt like unlimited casts in. He was fully kitted with both fly rods and spinning rods, so we could adapt to all situations (weather etc). Great teacher too, you will learn new things regardless your skill level. Very chill guy 10/10 would go again
