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.

    Kyle was an awesome flounder gigging guide out of Port Aransas. We had less than ideal weather conditions, but Kyle busted his butt to get us on some fish. We had a great time. We’ll definitely do it again!

    We all had an absolute blast hunting for Flounder with Kyle. Very skilled captain in regards to keeping us in the fish and maintaining good boat position in the shallow water. Everyone that went said was the best part of the vacation and want to go again.
