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.

    Sharing my birthday with my dad meant I developed a love of fishing from him at an early age. We celebrated my 59th and his 82nd birthday with 2 back-to-back fishing days with Captain Jack on the Jesse James. He was a careful listener to our requests and expertly guided us to fun fishing, filled with pro tips and great hospitality. Captain Jack truly wants you to have the best time possible and goes all the extra miles. So grateful we were able to fish with him and can't wait to do it again in the future!

    Captain Chris gave us an amazing trip!!!! My family of 5 had experience ranging from years of fishing to never holding a rod, but he helped everyone as needed, setting everyone up with the right rod and bait for their ability and we all caught a wide variety of fish at several spots. He also recommended a great restaurant to cook our catch for lunch. Super cool guy, very knowledgeable, a great time!

  • ★★★★★
    On behalf of Warren Herndon, Wayne Hall and myself (Dexter Hudson), I would like to report that we had an outstanding time on our fishing excursion with Captain Don. Captain Don was very enjoyable to talk and visit with and he also patiently answered all of our questions, explaining what he was doing. And he worked like a Trojan baiting and putting new hooks and leaders on our poles after sharks robbed us of our catch when we reeled in too slowly. We did manage to reel in 22 good-sized Yellow Tail snapper and were able to return home as conquering heroes with meat for the table. Don not only cleaned the fish but provided several tasty recipes. The gentlemen did the cooking, the wives joined us in devouring the meal and we all had big smiles on our faces.. Thanks Captain Don! If or when we get back, you'll be the man we call!
