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.

    Trip: Harbor Hookup: Destin Fishing Fun

  • ★★★★★
    Captain went above and beyond to ensure we caught everything we asked for. Deck hand worked his tail off keeping our lines bated and fish put into the cooler! Limited out on Red Snapper and caught several Mahi Mahi with one big Amber Jack that was unfortunately out of season and had to be released. Great time for my family of 6-people and everyone was pleased with boat, Captain and deck hand. Thanks for the bucket list Clay

    Trip: 10 Hour Deep Sea Adventure

  • ★★★★★
    We went out in a 6 hour deep sea fishing trip with Captain Eric and his deck hand Maddox yesterday 7/12/2025. They were both amazing, knowledgeable and extremely laid back and helpful. There were 6 of us and by 9am we had all already reached our snapper limit! We also caught some red grouper, but none were big enough to keep, Bonita, Amberine, black snapper, a trigger fish we had to release as they aren’t in season and a few others! We absolutely had a blast and would recommend Eric’s charter boat to anyone! If you get hot, all you have to do is step inside the HUGE air conditioned cabin that sleeps 6 with a full bathroom, living room and kitchen. The boat was meticulously maintained, and SO clean! You do not have to be an experienced fisherman to go out with them! They will guide you through everything!! We’ll definitely be booking again!

    Trip: Premier Destin - 60’ Blackwell

  • ★★★★★
    My family and I booked this trip with very little knowledge on what to expect. From the initial phone call to Curtis, through the entire trip, do you having our entire catch cleaned and filleted, we could not have been more pleased. Curtis and his crew were exceptional! We would definitely book with Curtis on Max Drag again.

    Captain Anthony was awesome! Great with the kids and adults alike. The weather wasn't cooperating on our trip but he still managed to put us some fish even if wasn't our target for the day. I would fish with Captain Anthony again anytime!
