Inshore fishing is the most popular type of fishing for barracuda in Sarasota as well as nearshore fishing.

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.

    Captain Jerry worked his ass off to ensure we had a great time and caught fish. Would definitely book him again if we come back to the area.

    Trip: Fishing Inshore/Nearshore

  • ★★★★★
    Kyle is a very knowledgeable and professional captain. My son and I didn’t have a lot of time to squeeze in a long fishing trip but Captain Kyle put us on the fish. We caught 3 keepers (Trout and Jack), 3 non-keepers (Cat) and lost several bait to really strong hits in a very short amount of time! He kept the rods bated and cleaned and filleted the fish for us to take with us at no charge. We even had a few dolphin come up and greet us at one point! This is definitely a trip that will be remembered for a lifetime for both my son and I! Thank you Captain Kyle for the memories!

    Trip: 4-8 HR Inshore Trip

  • ★★★★★
    We had a great time with Captain Jerry. He was entertaining and knowledgeable. Most importantly, we caught fish! This was our first time out in the Gulf, and it was fun to catch a variety of fish and learn about them. There were six of us, four adults and two children. Captain Jerry's boat was perfect for this group.
