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.

    Great days fishing! Jay got us on the fish right away and Jake was super helpful on deck!

    Trip: Summer Offshore Run

  • ★★★★★
    I booked this fishing trip for my wife’s birthday. Being workaholics, it’s the first vacation we’ve taken in YEARS. Captain Mike and Cody could not have possibly gave us a better time. Cody is friendly, polite, knowledgeable, and takes the time to explain everything before the boat ever left dock. Mike is also incredible. Mike not only makes sure you’re going to find fish, he wants to make sure you enjoy yourself, and he genuinely cares about your safety. You can tell that these men are genuinely good people. We had a great time and can’t wait to book our next adventure with these guys. If anyone wants a great fishing experience, I would HIGHLY recommend these gentlemen!

    Captain Grey was outstanding. Under typically iffy December conditions on Pamlico Sound he put us into trout and drum. I've fished with 4 other charters over the past decade in the Carolinas and Captain Grey was best.
