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.

What month is best for on a bowfishing charter in Pensacola?

The most popular season to go on a bowfishing charter in Pensacola is summer, and most anglers book their trips 19 days in advance.

Do I need a Pensacola fishing license and what are the bag limits in Pensacola?

    Captain Bruce took our family out for a beautiful night on the water. Despite the crazy rain all week he found plenty of flounder for us to take a stab at. I don’t think we would have been able to spot even a fraction of the fish he pointed out to us on our own, very good at what he does. Hit at least half or more of our limit on flounder. I highly recommend him for gigging on the island. Also had a great time spotting the local wildlife: rays, horseshoe crabs, blue crabs, stone crabs, ghost crabs, gar, mullets, needlefish, and sharks. - the Gordon family

    We had captain Andy for a night time hunt. He was very knowledgeable and had a great attitude! Will definitely be coming back to bow fish again!

    Our guide Andy was excellent. He was very quick to point out species we can shoot and the ones we can’t shoot. He did a great job getting us on top of them! Also his patience with our people who have never done it was amazing. He would keep us on top of the same fish until they hit it! 10/10 would recommend these guys to anyone. We will definitely be using them again next time.

    We had a great time! I didn’t know rays were so resilient that you could get them with an arrow and the would heal within a few days. Our guide Colby was awesome. He found a bunch of rays for us and helped us after each catch. Hew was awesome!
