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.

    Captain Ralph and Mike were super fun guys. They taught us a lot and were a great hang for us on my bachelor party. We reeled in a few decent sized fish, but the whole experience with the Miami skyline made it worth it. Thanks Captain Ralph!

    Trip: Ultimate Action Fishing in Key West

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Chris gave us an amazing trip!!!! My family of 5 had experience ranging from years of fishing to never holding a rod, but he helped everyone as needed, setting everyone up with the right rod and bait for their ability and we all caught a wide variety of fish at several spots. He also recommended a great restaurant to cook our catch for lunch. Super cool guy, very knowledgeable, a great time!

    The weather wasn’t super conducive, and we were late in the season, but Capt Hunter worked overtime to get us on some bugs and make sure r went home with some! And he was great with our 11 year old son who was out for hours first time with us! Definitely will look him up again when we’re back in the keys.

    Our trip with Tony was amazing! Our family had such a good time catching all sorts of different species. After catching fish pretty consistently for about four hours, Tony was nice enough to clean our fish for us. We were able to take our filets to the restaurant next to where he picked us up where they cooked them for us. Overall it was a great day and we highly recommend Tony and his services!

    We had a wonderful time with Edmond. He was very prepared for the trip and he did his best to make sure we had every opportunity to catch fish. The bite was tough to get today and we had a few hits that slipped the hook. The weather was perfect and we enjoyed ourselves. I would go with him again.
