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.

Does New York have good fishing?
New York offers a variety of fishing experiences that make it an attractive destination for anglers. The state's diverse landscapes provide ample opportunities for both freshwater and saltwater fishing. In freshwater settings, New York's lakes, rivers, and reservoirs are renowned for their fishing potential. Iconic spots like the Finger Lakes, Lake Ontario, and the Adirondack Mountains are popular among anglers targeting species such as bass, trout, and walleye. The state’s numerous waterways also offer excellent fly fishing opportunities, particularly in the Catskills, where the famed Delaware and Beaverkill Rivers provide a challenging and rewarding experience for trout fishing enthusiasts.
Saltwater fishing in New York is equally diverse and exciting. The state's coastline along the Atlantic Ocean and Long Island Sound offers ample opportunities for shore, pier, and boat fishing. Anglers can enjoy surf fishing on Long Island's beaches, where they can catch species like striped bass, bluefish, and fluke. For those interested in offshore adventures, charter boats are available to target larger species such as tuna, sharks, and marlin. The rich marine environments provide varied fishing experiences, from inshore to deep-sea fishing, catering to different preferences and skill levels.
New York City, despite its urban setting, also offers unique fishing opportunities. The East River, Hudson River, and various city parks with stocked ponds provide accessible options for fishing within the metropolis. Anglers can catch species such as striped bass, bluefish, and even shad in these urban waterways. Additionally, the city's piers and waterfront areas offer great opportunities for fishing from the shore. The wide range of fishing options, from serene freshwater spots to bustling urban environments and rich saltwater fisheries, makes New York a compelling destination for fishing enthusiasts.
