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.

    Amazing day out on the water with captain Greg. Not often you get to fill up the freezer with silver trout AND catch a couple monster redfish. Will be booking with him again next time we go out

    Greg was a terrific guide and put us on lots of fish (over 100 trout). Although it was an older boat it was spacious and large enough to make the fishing very enjoyable. His experience and patience was outstanding.

    Met Captain Greg at 7am and had a good trip. He is native to the area and knows the water well. We decided to concentrate on white trout and caught about 50. He was very courteous and professional and I enjoyed fishing with him.
