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.

What a great day on the water! Mark was an excellent guide and used his knowledge of the bays to fill the ice chest with 10 keeper reds for our group. My son caught his first limit of redfish and I was blessed to be by his side. Mark was alot of fun to hang out with and I highly recommend him for anyone looking to catch fish, laugh, and enjoy a beautiful morning. Thanks Mark! Best birthday ever!

Capt Jody was awesome. He was personable, informative and just fun to talk with. He took straight to good fishing and we had a blast. I will be using him again.

Capt Jody is a hard working guide. It wasn't the easiest day fishing wise with the trout not really biting. Jody worked until we found them.

We fished 3 days with Jody in late July, and had an incredible experience. Caught our limit of sea trout every morning, even under the most trying of circumstances — wind, heat, full moon. Jody was at all times helpful, and his 40 plus years of guiding made for really informative and fun conversations. He worked really hard to ensure we had a great experience. Can’t ask for a better guide, and we look forward to our next trip with Jody.
