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.

    Alex was professional, friendly, patient and most importantly REALLY good! We limited out and got bullied red to boot in 2.5 hours. Awesome boat, awesome tackle, no complaints whatsoever. Highly recommend his services.

    My husband and I had a wonderful trip with Alex! He was very knowledgeable and friendly. He helped me out a bunch as more of a beginner and let my husband have a little more hands on since he has a bit of experience which I thought was great. Definitely tailored the trip to what we were looking for. Would 100% recommend booking with him, we will be again in the future for sure!

    Had a great time. Slow start but s great finish. Probably the weather. But was the most fish we have caught in a long time. Hit the grand slam. We really enjoyed the trip Travis. Thank you so much. We will be back!!! And don't forget, if you find that cork let me know what it was and how big. Trey, thanks for your help in getting everything worked out on the booking. You got us a great guide. 👍👍👍
