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: Gulfport Combo Classic

  • ★★★★★
    Had an awesome trip out. First time out for my son and I together on a personal charter and did not disappoint. We caught grouper till we were tired of catching grouper. Greg and his mate made sure we were catching fish and knew how to use their tackle. Only time I had to bait my hook was when the deck hands was baiting my sons hook, and I’ve been fishing for over 35+ years and didn’t want to wait. They also don’t waste time in an area if the fish are not biting. Will definitely use them again if in the area.

    Trip: Night Time Bridge Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    Got us on the fish right away. Cannot tell you how many trips I have been on where just catching a few is a problem. Dillon knew exactly where to go and moved when the fishing changed. We caught so many species I cannot recall them all. Way over 20 fish on the trip with at least 5 Keeper mangrove snappers. Highly recommend this captains experience!!!
