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 Blake was amazing, he put us on big fish early in the morning and we caught fish the entire time we were out. He was super patient with my 9 year old grandson and 83 year old father. We caught some really big Reds, 2 of which we had to tag, lots of drum including the 2 trophies we had to catch and release of 32 & 40 inches. He will be our Captain of choice for future trips. He exceeded my expectations by miles.

    Captain Robert and his First Mate Jason were very knowledgeable and professional. They kept us entertained while going from from one fishing spot to another. Captain Robert’s experience and knowledge of the Gulf help him to put us on the fish that we wanted to catch.on a scale of 1-10 he gets a solid 10. We will fish with him again.

    I wanted to take a moment to share my recent fishing experience with anyone who will listen. During my trip, I had the pleasure of being guided by Corey, who I must say was by far the best guide I have ever encountered. Corey's knowledge and expertise not only extended to the fish and the area, but also to boats in general. Within minutes of conversing with him, I felt like I had known him for years. His ability to make me feel comfortable and at ease was truly remarkable. To top it all off, Corey helped me catch the biggest fish I've ever caught! His professionalism, respectfulness, and sense of humor made the trip both enjoyable and memorable. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate him a solid 10 without hesitation. I highly recommend Corey's services to everyone, from seasoned fishermen to novices. Even my wife, who isn't a big fan of fishing, was thoroughly impressed with Cory and his exceptional service. I had initial doubts about today's trip, but thanks to Corey, it turned out to be an incredible experience.
