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 Placida?

    Captain Josh was fantastic - he took grest care of my family and I, caught a ton a great fish, and enjoyed the amazing boat. He and his assistant were extremely enthusiastic and were great in teaching my kids about fishing in the Gulf. Great times had by all and would greatly recommend him.

    Trip: Nokomis Offshore/Nearshore

  • ★★★★★
    We had a wonderful trip with Tom! His boat is spacious and co.fortable. and very, very clean. He helped me (a complete novice) to catch 3 fish, while assisting my much more experienced husband. Late in the trip, when we e pressed an interest in seeing one of the coastal towns more closely, he obligigly switched into " tour guide" mode, and steered us into a system of mangrove canals bordered by homes, and told us about the history of the town. We found him to be friendly and we'll informed as well as being a great fisherman. , .

    Josh and his team were very keen on us having a great time and putting us on the big game fish. His vessel and crew were top notch and many amazing memories were made.

    Tom and Ryan are the best in the area. Great guys to hangout with. They go above and beyond on what you think to expect Very experienced, they no where the fish are and how they are bitting, also they are very patient on teaching with every skill level. We as group have booked with him twice, and there will be no others that we even think to book with in this area.
