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 Don was a lot of fun! We caught a few delicious fish, had to let one go due to the season, and one potential catch eaten by a shark off the line. Lots of fun, and Don was very entertaining throughout. Strongly recommend. Josh

    Trip: Ocean Thrills With Captain Don

  • ★★★★★
    Paul was fantastic with communication and very accommodating. Originally scheduled to go out on Saturday but he contacted me ahead of time with some ocean condition concerns and we were able to move it to Sunday which was much calmer seas and a super pleasant experience on the water. Large boat with tons of room for our party of 4. Nice covered area and table for eating and getting a little reprieve from the sun. Unfortunately we didn't get into any sailfish that day but thats the way of the water and how fishing goes sometimes. We did get a couple king fish that Paul fileted up for us at the dock and still sent us home with a bunch of fresh fish that we were able to grill up that night.
