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.

    Mike and the crew were awesome! We headed out despite rough seas and they put us on fish! We brought in over 50 fish and it wore us out! Mike and Kyle were great and kept First mate Kody busy helping us out all day as the fish were coming in! He was wonderful! A+ and highly recommend them!

    My dad and I really enjoyed our trip with Captain Mike. The fishing was a little slow, but that was not Mike's fault and just part of fishing. We really appreciated the genuine effort he put in to trying different spots and methods to put us on fish, which ultimately got us to catch a few Blues.
