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.

    Was an excellent day on the water. Our guide gave us a very comfortable ride and great conversation throughout the half day trip. We all caught plenty of varied fish species enough to cook that evening and freeze and take home. We plan on using Justin’s outfit for our return trips. There are a ton of options in key west but we don’t see the need to change at all.
