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 charter in Fairhaven?

    Great trip overall! Captain Jack was knowledgeable, patient, flexible and we caught a bunch of fish. Noman's Land is a beautiful island worth seeing.

    Tyler was awesome. We went out with three adults and two kids (6 & 8) and he got us on the fish! We caught a ton of massive striped bass and had a great time. Will definitely go out with him again.

    Tyler was amazing! Timely, professional and friendly. This charter was a gift for my dad for Father's Day, and we had the best time making memories as a family. All five of us each caught something, we would highly recommend and we plan to book again with Tyler in the future!
