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.

    This was the first time son and I have ever fished saltwater. We have only fished freshwater. Capt. Kent and his wife were the best. We already told Capt. Kent everytime we are here we are booking him. Great time!

    We had the BEST time fishing with Captain Wayne and deck hand/first mate Corey. We caught tons of fish and had the most peaceful boat ride! Corey and Wayne were both the BOMB! Corey was so knowledgeable about the types of fish and was so quick to help and answer questions! Captain Wayne took us the some great fishing holes and made sure that we were safe! The worst part of the trip was when fishing time was over! We will be back!!!!
