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.

    I took my two Sons, (13 ) and (15) out for some In Shore Fishing and we had a fantastic time. Fishing was good, spots we went to were great. Capt. Mike was very attentive and helpful. We caught a lot of Fish and could not have been more thankful for our Capt. choice. Thanks again MIke!

    Our group of 5 had a great experience with Scott, also known as “Steve”. It was a beautiful day on the water. Scott was knowledgeable and quickly responded when we needed him… which was often, as we were not experienced! We’ll go out with Scott again!

    The four of us had a great time fishing with Captain Todd! We did a quick morning trip and it was just enough for all of us to catch a handful of fish. Todd was very knowledgeable and a great guide. Would definitely go again!

    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.

    Capt Kevin did a great job. Put us on a good spot for flounder. Water Temp had changed drastically and he still got us on the fish. Would definitely choose him again. Fun guy on the boat.

    Matt was great. The crew managed to not only we engage positively with our 4-person party, but Matt ensured that our daughters had fun throughout. He left the course mainly up to us, since we had 2 younger children with us. I'll definitely come back to this charter service!
