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.

    My family and I had an epic day with Taco! Taco and his mate were super welcoming as we jumped on board, and it was clear he runs a super clean and well maintained sportfish. We were on fish in no time with my brother-in-law fighting the fish of his life, a giant Amberjack! From there, we spread the kites and caught mahi, bonita, and a beautiful sailfish. Whole fam had a blast and Taco stole the show, we'll be back! – Jonathan with Captain Experiences

    Ron and Chris were incredible hosts. We were in town from Seattle without a clue of what group to book with. Both were super knowledgeable about all things fishing, made it easy for beginners to feel like pros and the boat was a smooth, fun ride. Overall, easily 5-stars. Would highly recommend.

    I took the family (wife, 2 boys and grandma) for a 6 hour charter and had a great time with Captain Ron and the crew, Chris and Brian. They were friendly, safety conscious and knowledgeable. Listening to other boats on the radio that day, the fishing wasn't great yet we hooked a barracuda and a bonita almost as soon as we dropped lines. This was followed up with a nice size mahi that grandma fought 😂 (they cleaned dockside and we took home to eat), 3 more barracudas and an amberjack. Chris was on the ball with keeping bait fresh and when we had multiple fish on, he had complete control of the cockpit. Pick up and drop off was easy. The boat had A/C and a bathroom that was a must have given the family and on a hot day, this made all the difference. I'd rebook the charter.

    "Absolutely Incredible Experience with Captain Jonny's Inshore Fishing! From the moment we set sail with Captain Jonny, we knew we were in for an unforgettable day. His knowledge of the waters and expertise in fishing techniques were unparalleled, ensuring we were always in the best spots. The highlights of our trip were catching many impressive Jack and Baracuda. Each catch was a thrilling experience, thanks to Captain Jonny's guidance and encouragement. Not only did Captain Jonny make sure we had a successful fishing trip, but he also educated us about the local marine life and conservation efforts, which added so much value to our adventure. The boat was comfortable and well-equipped, making our experience both enjoyable and safe. Captain Jonny's passion for fishing and dedication to providing the best possible experience for his guests shines through in every aspect of the trip. We left with not just many fish caught, but also with great memories that will last a lifetime. For anyone looking to experience the best inshore fishing, look no further than Captain Jonny's Inshore Fishing. It's more than just a fishing trip; it's an adventure that you'll never forget. Five stars all the way!"
