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 deep dropping charter in Pensacola?

    Captain Steve was fantastic! He put us right on top of the fish! He took us to the right spots to limit out on all the different fish in season. His mate Wes was a hero. He managed 5 of us and got all the fish in the boat! We brought home a freezer FULL of fish. I'll be seeing Capt. Steve again next year!!

    Levi is the coolest, most laid back Capt you could ask for. I brought my 9 and 11 year old and my wife. They didn’t have any experience fishing and he handled it like a champ. He knows where the fish are!
