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.

    I booked this for my husband and our oldest son for Father’s Day. My husband has always wanted to do a fishing excursion. They had the best time, we took their catch to The Edge where they prepared it for us. I highly recommend Lonestar Charter and Captain Chuch

    Had a great day of fishing. Non stop reeling. Took my son, son-in-law, and 2 nephews. No got sick. The only problem we had was we were exhausted from reeling in the fish. Great problem.
