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 live bait fishing trip in St. Cloud?

    Rick was amazing, was extremely punctual and had everything we needed for a great trip. Even though the weather was not great he still knew where to put us on fish and have a great experience. He was kind and all over what we needed. An amazing captain that I highly recommend to anyone!

    Capt Rick was great! Everyone had a good time and caught plenty of fish. He did a great job helping our 8 yo jr. fisherman have a blast. I would highly recommend for anyone.

    Trip: Kissimmee Bass Fishing Charter

  • ★★★★★
    Jackson is a true professional guide who is easy to talk with & though I understand it’s been a struggle/grind with the cold fronts down here, he put me on the fish right away. We caught a total of 12 decent size Largemouth. I have been Bass fishing for over 30yrs in VA & surrounding states, but FL has been on my Bucket list for quite awhile! I certainly appreciated his tips & suggestions & found my experience here w/ Jackson as my guide superb. I would recommend him to all my friends & family looking for a good time fishing FL Bass. I will be back!🤓🎣

    I scheduled a trip with Jackson as a gift to a friend - he texted me after saying “Had a killer day - caught several whoppers and Jackson is a super cool dude!” Thanks Jackson 👍
