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.

    Dingo was a great guide. He was responsive and detailed answering questions before the trip. He had top end boat, fishing equipment and technology. He was safe, knowledgeable, helpful and put us on the fish. We will request his guide services in the future.

    Captain Bill is exactly what a guide should be. He was professional, funny, knowledgeable and I felt like I had known him for years. I had two first time hunters with me that had an amazing and safe time. He put us in a game rich environment where we were very successful! Thanks

    Wow! We had the most amazing fishing trip yesterday with TJ! My nephew can't stop talking about it! We spent 4 hours out fishing and caught several different types of fish including jack fish and a barracuda. TJ spent time with him, showed him how the equipment on the boat worked, and helped him find and reel in the fish- he was wonderful. The time went by too quickly! The boat had plenty of snacks, he even had some sunscreen when I realized I forgot ours in the car. Thank you so much, TJ, for an amazing 4 hour trip that is the highlight of my nephew's summer vacation!

    Captain Bill took me, my son in law and two grandsons on an iguana hunt. We all had a great time and a fair amount of success under Captain Bills guidance. He was patient and entertaining with an emphasis on safety. Thanks for the good time Captain Bill. It would have been easier for me to find the boat ramp if I had the address rather than a pin.

    Captain Craig was an excellent guide and has the heart of a teacher! He lead us to all the spots where fish were biting and taught my teenage son, who didn’t even want to come out, what a great time the outdoors can be. The entire CaptainExperiences.com was very easy and excellent communication all throughout the process. If anyone is on the fence they should just do it! Especially if you get a chance to book with Captain Craig!

    Fascinating lake fishing in Florida on a fantastic father daughter trip. Caught numerous Peacock Bass, Clown-knifes and Cichlids. Our guide TJ was terrific. Local born and raised and knows all the hot spots. Felt like I was fishing with an old friend.

    Getting out on the water with Dino was an awesome experience. He provided extensive instruction on both casting and fish tendencies. Not to mention the pristine gear, and more importantly, some belly laughs. Highly recommend for any fly fishing experiences in the greater Jupiter/Palm Beach areas.
