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.

    Trip: Full Day Red Fishing

    My wife and I fished with Captain Frenchy. It was a great time and he worked hard to continually put us on fish. Cpt Frenchy is a pleasure to spend time with and I would highly recommend him for anyone looking to catch fish and have a great time on the water.

    Trip: Trout And Redfish Full Bite

  • ★★★★★
    When I tell you a time was had!!! We had a group of 6 so we teamed up with Capt Shawn and Capt. Chad. The laughs started within 10 minutes of arriving to the dock! Both captains were very experienced, knowledgeable, hospitable and definitely made sure they put us in the best spots to catch fish!! We hooked multiple bull reds, speckle trout, sheepsheads and drum!! Definitely will be booking again very soon! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    So so much fun!!! He found all the good places my bestie got sea sick and our guide was the sweetest caring person he really helped her get past it and offered several times to take us back if needed! He even has a little potty for ladies on the boat so you don’t have to hang off the side!! We hit all of our red snapper limits before 10 and then got some trout and red fish! We also caught TONS of cool stuff that we threw back shark, little shark swimmer fish, angel fish, drum, and so many more!! Amazing trip!!
