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.

    Captain Richard was knowledgeable, patient, and generous with his time. Our group was able to catch several fish, and had to opportunities to see lots of wildlife including sharks, rays, and a school of large tarpon. I certainly recommend this experience!

    Jake was a great Captain for our Inshore Fishing Trip. He worked really hard and was very respectful and did all he could to help us take some fish home. The conditions weren't perfect, but that's fishing. I would recommend Jake to anyone looking for a family fishing trip inshore.

    This was my daughter's and my first offshore fishing trip, and we couldn't have asked for a better one. Captain Tim was incredible, got us on some great fish, and made the morning completely enjoyable. We went home with a lot of meat he cleaned up for us and created some wonderful memories. If you're looking for an amazing experience and a cooler full of fish to take home, Captain Tim is your guy!

    Jake put us right on the fish and we caught them until we were too exhausted to reel anymore in. We will definitely fish with him next time!

    Jake was great. He put us on fish the whole time. No dull moment and no sitting in one spot hoping for the best. Even recommended a place to take our fish to be cooked for us.

    Excellent in shore trip! Capt Jake was knowledgeable, personable, and just plain old fashioned fun. 10/10 I would run with him for all my Pensacola trips. I mean, you can’t complain to hook up on 27” and a 29” red fish!!
