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.

    We had a great experience for our 1st time fishing salt water fish. Communication was excellent. Received confirmation email in less than an hour. Then followed our boarding pass via email. Rob also sent me a personal text w/ a choice of launch sites and a direct way to contact him. Phone or text. Very personal touch in my humble opinion. We met at the exact time scheduled. Then there was the fishing!!! We really never had a moment without action. Within 10 minutes we were catching fish. It continued until we ran out of bare. Took a quick detour & we caught some more bare. Just more fish to catch. I thought it fun. Went back to fishing. We were having a problem landing the really big ones. However, one memorable moment was when I had a big fighter on, then a shark came & ate my fish, cutting my line. What a fish story, but it's true! Rob is a great, friendly guy. Easy to talk/joke with. I highly recommend you try this, if even for 4 hrs like we did. The price for 2 people is well worth it! Try it yourself. Memorable trip.

    Taylor was a great captain who was a joy to fish with and put us on the fish. He's an easy going guy who, despite being a younger captain, already has considerable experience in Mosquito Lagoon. He was right on time, the boat was clean and well-organized, and spotted so many fish for us. Taylor is your secret weapon in the Lagoon.

    My 9 year old son and I had a wonderful time. Captain Neal was friendly and informative. We caught trout, sailcat, and hooked and saw a tarpon but it broke the line about 10-15 feet from the boat. It was amazing. We are returning to Florida in December and we will be booking with Captain Neal again.

    Captain Neal is a very knowledgeable Captain, very laid back and a great teacher. It was a slow bite at the beginning of our trip but Captain Neal put us on the fish. We caught many Trout, brought in 4 keepers, a ladyfish, several Kack " Crevalle, and the shark pictured. Great time. Plan on booking again when I am in town.

    Spent a half day out with Captain Kenneth! Had an amazing day fishing for black drum, mango snapper, tarpon, and snook. He did an awesome job running the boat and keeping everyone going and hooking the big ones! The questionable weather in Florida didn’t stop us from having a good time. Thank you for the great day!
