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: Harbor Hookup: Destin Fishing Fun

  • ★★★★★
    Had a great time on the water with Captain Harold and his crew , DJ and Brice! Great attention to detail and made the trip easy to enjoy. I would recommend these guys for sure. The boat was comfortable and plenty of seating for our group of six. The cabin was available as well with a clean restroom. I really don’t have any complaints at all. They put us on fish the whole six hours and we left with our coolers full! Thanks Guys!

    My family and I went out with Doug and his son Jon. it was a wonderful experience; the boat had a bathroom and air conditioning that is very hard to find on most fishing excursion boats. While Doug captained the boat his son kept all the rods baited and cast, all we had to do was reel them in. They knew exactly where to go, we caught plenty of fish and Jon filleted and cleaned them even advised us how to cook them. With their years of experience and knowledge I would only go with them again and advise anybody to do the same.
