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.

    Despite not catching anything big enough to keep, Jason made efforts to change locations and lures to give us the best chances. He expertly navigated pop-up storms and kept spirits high with a curated playlist. Even though we lost the "big one" as it snapped an 80-lb test line while darting under the boat, we had a great time and would fish with him again. The inclusion of a toilet on the boat, though small, was invaluable for our party of 4.

    We believe that Joey did a great job of taking care of us. Two very large 15 lb fish were caught. It was a pleasant fishing trip. Regards, George FLynn

    Trip: Bay Fishing Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Our trip was with Capt Brodie. Pleasant, well intended guy. Our party had 4 teenage boys all proficient fishermen. 2 of 4 spent half the trip watching the other two fish, one would think having 4 rods rigged would be standard. Needless to say we cut the trip short by an hour. If you plan on catching in shore fish bring your cane poles and bobbers, the mangroves are almost the size of a decent mangrove :) All in all blessed to spend the day with my boys and be on the water! Thats why they call it fishing, im sure there are great days to be had.
