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.

Treasure Island Fishing Overview

Treasure Island, located in Florida, offers a prime location for fishing enthusiasts with access to the abundant waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Tampa Bay. The town's proximity to John's Pass inlet provides easy access to fishing right off the dock. A variety of species can be targeted, including King and Spanish Mackerel, Snook, Redfish, Cobia, Flounder, Speckled Trout, Tarpon, Mangrove and Red Snapper, different species of Grouper, Jack Crevalle, Hogfish, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Wahoo, and Tuna.

Half-day trips are ideal for family outings, while full-day trips offer a more serious fishing experience. Specialized trips are also available for targeting the Silver King - Tarpon. The annual Suncoast Kingfish Classic tournament in spring and fall provides an opportunity for healthy competition.

Fishing charters are available from various marinas in the area, and a saltwater fishing license will be provided by the captain. It is important to note that there is a strict catch-and-release policy for Tarpon.

Treasure Island Inshore Fishing

For any angler, just looking at a map of Treasure Island will cause excitement. For inshore anglers, however, Treasure Island is a very special place. The biodiverse inshore waters are home to many bucket list species. In the spring and summer months Tarpon swing by on their southbound migration.

They are accompanied by ambushing Snook and Redfish moving into the warmer bay waters. As the waters cool down, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and Grouper species can be expected. Fish the best Treasure Island fishing spots like Caladesi Island and Honeymoon Island or cruise the bays, backwaters, and bayous for mangrove monsters. Regardless of the time of year, your Treasure Island fishing charter will ensure that you stay on the bite!

Treasure Island Offshore Fishing

Just a short boat ride out of the bay will bring you to some highly productive nearshore waters. Deep dropping or trolling around structure will bring Hogfish, Snapper, Grouper, Cobia, and other formidable fighters to our Treasure Island charter boats.

Schools of baitfish hang out near the mouth of the bay in the summer, so that's a great place to start. There are also plenty of reefs & wrecks always providing a diverse catch to Treasure Island deep sea fishing charters. For the full-day and extended day offshore trips of 40+ miles out, Kingfish, Tuna, Mahi-Mahi, and billfish can be caught.

    Gage and Noah were great. They knew where to find the fish and kept us catching several kinds of fish throughout the trip. We went as a family and they kept the kids busy and were a big help showing them exactly what to do. I would definitely recommend them!

    Captain Hank was a wonderful addition to our trip! He was smart, funny and a great conversationalist. The fishing was slow but we knew that with the pre day conversation of wind and murky water. We caught an array of different species including a bonnet head shark. Thanks for making memories with us Hank! See you next trip down from Canada!

    Steve & crew were great! They kept our lines in the water, and attended to us quickly. The boat was clean and spacious, lots of space to get out of the sun, but maintain a breeze without getting down into the cabin. 100% would recommend you give Reel Deal a shot!

    Trip: St. Petersburg Inshore Slam

    Greg and his mate Logan were fantastic. They were friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable, efficient, and very “fishy”! We had a great day with them. I recommend Captain Greg highly.

    Trip: St. Pete Offshore Experience

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Brad and his first mate were great for our outing. Since my kids were new to ocean fishing, he kept us within a few miles of shore and knew some rocky pockets where we hauled in many fish. We had a blast. One reason I chose Capt Brad was the 33’ boat which was roomy to maneuver for our party of six. They are friendly and accommodating.

    Chris is an excellent guide (5 stars). He is very personable and we all became fishing buddies quickly. Enjoyed the action with the spotted seatrout on the flats in southern Tampa Bay.
