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 guess the best thing I can say is when we come back, if we’re fishing on the Gulf, we’re going with Kyle. His First Mate Ben did a great job helping us out as well. Thanks Kyle

    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.

    Captain Bob and Crew were awesome!!! We have been fishing many times and he offered a great boat, great service, and our best fishing experience in the Gulf so far! Multiple stops and he ensured that we caught our limit! My kids loved it! Great memories and great lunch and dinners!!!!! Go with him for sure!

    Trip: SPRING 64’ Private Fishing Charter

  • ★★★★★
    We had a great day of fishing. Captain Kent and his wife worked very hard to ensure we caught fish. We trolled out in the gulf and caught 6 nice amberjacks, which we had to release since they were out of season. He then movers us to an area that had some structure to it and we hit 3 nice false tuna and 1 large fish that eventually threw the hook. Captain Kent filleted the tuna for us once docked and told us to eat them blackened, which turned out very tasty. We plan on using him again next year when we come back.

    Trip: Fishing Trips with Captain Kent

    My fishing trip with Captain Kent and his wife Bobbi was an incredible experience from start to finish. They both made us feel welcome and comfortable, with Captain Kent expertly guiding us to the best fishing spots, while Bobbi shared her knowledge of the area and tips helped us reel in some impressive catches, we had everything we needed. Not only did he take us to prime fishing spots, but he also shared delicious recipes for preparing our catch, making the experience even more special. Along the way, he pointed out dolphins playing in the water and fighter jets take off from the airport. Their teamwork and hospitality truly set this trip apart, and it was a pleasure to spend the morning with such a friendly and knowledgeable duo on the water.

    What an unforgettable day on the water with Captain Cliff and Austin! From the moment we set out, it was clear that Captain Cliff knows these waters like the back of his hand. He took us straight to the best spots, where we caught an impressive mix of red snapper, vermillion snapper, trigger fish, amberjack, and even grouper. Austin was fantastic—he was right there to help us with baiting, teaching us the best techniques for casting and reeling in our catches, and making sure we were having a great time every step of the way. His patience and expertise made the experience even more enjoyable. If you're looking for a top-tier fishing experience, Captain Cliff and Austin are the team to book. Highly recommend, and I can't wait to go back!

    Trip: State Water Trolling/Bottom Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    If you don’t book with Jayson you shouldn’t even come to Destin. You might as well cancel your entire trip if you don’t book with Jayson. I’d rather spend 4 hours fishing with Jayson than 7 days at the beach because I’d spend those 7 days seeing Jayson crash through the waves catching fish as big as a small child. If it ain’t Jay-son I ain’t gonna pay-son!

    Trip: Fishing Trips with Captain Kent

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Jason is very knowledgeable and worked hard to assure we had a safe and enjoyable trip. The two youngsters on board, ages 11 and 12, had a blast catching snappers and a variety of other species while bottom fishing. Later switched to trolling for mahi and kings but those species didn't want to cooperate that day. His 26ft boat offered a stable and dry ride for our 5 person charter even in a light chop well offshore. Captain Jason well deserves his 5 star "damn good" rating and we will definitely contact him should we decide to fish this area again.

    What a great trip and experience. First deep sea fishing trip for my 11 year old boy. Capt. Alex was friendly, knowledgeable and made the trip very enjoyable for myself and my boy. Alex makes the trip about you and works as hard as he can to make sure you have a successful trip. We definitely look forward to going back out with Capt. Alex in the future.
