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.

    Trip: Destin Gulf Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    We had a great day of fishing. Captain Kent and his wife worked very hard to ensure we caught fish. We trolled out in the gulf and caught 6 nice amberjacks, which we had to release since they were out of season. He then movers us to an area that had some structure to it and we hit 3 nice false tuna and 1 large fish that eventually threw the hook. Captain Kent filleted the tuna for us once docked and told us to eat them blackened, which turned out very tasty. We plan on using him again next year when we come back.

    Trip: Fishing Trips with Captain Kent

  • ★★★★★
    My fishing trip with Captain Kent and his wife Bobbi was an incredible experience from start to finish. They both made us feel welcome and comfortable, with Captain Kent expertly guiding us to the best fishing spots, while Bobbi shared her knowledge of the area and tips helped us reel in some impressive catches, we had everything we needed. Not only did he take us to prime fishing spots, but he also shared delicious recipes for preparing our catch, making the experience even more special. Along the way, he pointed out dolphins playing in the water and fighter jets take off from the airport. Their teamwork and hospitality truly set this trip apart, and it was a pleasure to spend the morning with such a friendly and knowledgeable duo on the water.
