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 artificial lure fishing charter in Placida?

    Wish I could give more stars. Trip exceeded expectations and Captain Bobby was awesome. Next time we go fishing, we are going with Bobby again.

    Trip: Placida Inshore Experience

  • ★★★★★
    I bought a shark fishing trip with Captain Jack for my son and grandson. They had an absolute riot. I received text after text about how much fun they were having and what they were catching. My son could not believe how quickly Jack caught bait fish for their adventure. And 20 minutes in my son caught his first shark. Shortly after my grandson reeled one in. And boom, another one. In total they caught 4 sharks, one was a 4ft nurse shark. My grandson is still talking about his 4ft'r. After that they focused on Red Snapper, reeling in four. My son also caught a few cat fish. My grandson said it was better than Disney and all he wants to do on life is live in Florida and catch fish. Captain Jack was fantastic. He knew where to go, what to do and passed along a lot of fish knowledge. We highly recommend him. 10 out of 10.

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Michael was great. Very friendly and patient with my wife and son, who both have very little fishing experience. My 11 yr old son said he was like fishing with an uncle. He kept us on fish all day, overall it was a great trip and I would recommend it for anyone.

    Amazing trip with Captain Bobby. He took us to 4 or 5 different spots, and plenty of fish at each spot. My grandson’s (7 and 10 years old) were fishing for the first time, and Captain Bobby was very patient and helpful with them. The trip exceeded our expectations!
