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.

    I give captain Mark a 5 star! He is knowledgeable, friendly, and a real pleasure to do business with. Although we didn't have the pleasure of many different species of fish biting it was still worth the monies spent to be out on the water with him and his deck hand Tyler. I would recommend him 100%.

    We had an awesome trip with Captain Leo. He put us on fish early and often. We had novice to advanced fishermen in the boat and he catered to us all. Definitely would book again.

    It was the highlight of my trip and the best fishing experience I’ve ever been on. I would highly recommend going out with captain Leonard, he was very helpful and helped me catch a good bit of fish. My only regret is not booking sooner.
