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.

    Jack was awesome to work with. We had bad weather and he went out of his way to reschedule and get us to the best fishing spots. Very laid back and helpful. He gave us great insight and tips for the local area.

    Trip: Gnarly Nearshore fishing

  • ★★★★★
    We had an outstanding fishing trip with Captain Jack, and caught our target species at the first location of the day. In my experience this is rare. The snook were big, hungry, and plentiful. My son and his friend were astounded by the 30 inch snook's ability to fight. We had a great time, and I highly recommend Jack.

    Captain Jack was right on time & immediately ready to go. We were fishing within 30 minutes more or less. He was very helpful and attentive. No complaints from us. Thanks - MW

    The fishing charter with Captain Phil was the highlight of our trip to Florida this year! Phil and his first mate were very helpful and friendly throughout our 4 hrs trip. They made sure my 9 year old son had the best spot on the boat and were eager to help him land a few fish. Captain Phil helped us land a couple big fish and filleted our Cobia which gave us some tasty supper. We would definitely use Captain Phil again.

    Trip: Cape Coral Inshore Excursion

  • ★★★★★
    Phil is a great Captain as well as his First Mate Tim! Interesting to watch them get the live bait right out of the Gulf before we headed out 12 miles offshore to fish. Phil put us right on the fish and we were literally reading in different species of fish the whole time. They were very patient if with our experience level and tried to make sure we were catching something that was fun to fight as well as good to eat. Great playlist of tunes on the boat as well! Highly recommend and will fish with Phil again!

    We had a great time with Captain Phil. He and his mate, Tim, had to change the offshore sighing plan due to weather, but put us on the fish right away back in the mangroves. Had a lot of action every spot we tried. Great for experienced anglers, and inexperienced. Our young sons had a blast and caught some great fish.

    Captain Phil and his first mate Tim were fantastic. I will definitely refer them to others and be back again to go further offshore. We had bad weather but still had a great time.

    Tom and Ryan are the best in the area. Great guys to hangout with. They go above and beyond on what you think to expect Very experienced, they no where the fish are and how they are bitting, also they are very patient on teaching with every skill level. We as group have booked with him twice, and there will be no others that we even think to book with in this area.

    Trip: Big Fish in Fort Myers

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Tom is a seasoned captain with great experience on the gulf. Super easy to get along with and will show all types of fisherman a day full of action and a cooler full of fish. We had the best experience on our 6 hour trip offshore. We caught many grouper and snapper and as a bonus we pulled a Goliath grouper. We plan on using Captain Tom’s services again to do some sport fishing. Overall 10 out of 10. Big shout out to the first mate Ryan. Class act, and was always ready to assist and make it happen. His humor is an integral part of the overall success!! Can’t thank these guys enough!

    We had a blast! Captain Charlie kept us moving not only did we catch great fish but we enjoyed dolphins all around us and a manatee swam right next to the boat. He was early for our trip and recommended a wonderful restaurant that cooked up our fish that he cleaned for us. We will be back next year to do it again Lord willing 🙏Thanks Captain Charlie
