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 fly fishing trip in Montana?

    Fantastic time on The Madison River. Anthony is a great guide who took the time to teach us first timers how to properly cast, set the hook.and fight the fish. Ended up each catching several species.

    What a great day with our guide Anthony. My son had a memory making time and caught some big browns. Anthony was a fun person to be on the water with and took his time and we never felt like we were being rushed just a all around awesome day.

    My wife and I have wanted to try fly fishing for a few years and finally booked a half day expedition. We both had a great time and learned a lot. I’d definitely recommend this to anyone who hasn’t tried yet and likes the outdoors.

    We had an incredible experience on the Yellowstone with our guides Brian and Sam. We did a full day trip with two guides for the 4 of us. We caught over 30 fish … beautiful rainbow, brown and white fish. Can’t wait to do it again!
