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.

    We had a great day on the water with Allen! We booked a lobstering and snorkel trip and with it being the last weekend of lobster season there was concern for finding few lobsters. Allen volunteered to add in fishing at no additional cost which was very considerate and a great addition to the day! We caught several snapper and even several lobsters we were able to keep. I would book again!

    Trip: Lobstering & Reef Snorkeling Combo

  • ★★★★★
    Had a great time spiny lobster fishing with Allen. We all went out and spent about 3ish hours snorkeling to catch them. Don’t kid yourself it’s not easy at least towards the end of the season. Water wasn’t super deep about 4-5 feet and we moved 3 times to try fresh areas when we had trouble finding big enough ones. Caught a bunch but only 2 were legal enough to keep. Still had lots of fun.
