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 husband and I are seniors and Jodie and Justin took very good care of us. The boat was clean and spacious for the 4 of us and Jodie handled the travel portion well, no bucking in wakes. We each had a guide to bait, cast, and net our catch. They also cleaned our fish and bagged for freezing. Caught our limits and had a very good morning. Jodie went above and beyond to make our experience good. We will definitely be calling Jodie again. 5 star Captain.

    Great day out fishing with Capt. Tommy. He took great care to make sure we had an enjoyable time. It was like we were with a good friend out to drown some fish for dinner. If you want to find Reds, he knows where to go. Don't hesitate. Book him.

    Redfish Success with Captain Tommy – Rockport, TX Despite a windy day and high water near Aransas Pass, Captain Tommy put us right on the fish. The flats were tough, but he still knocked out a two-man limit of redfish in just three hours—no small feat under those conditions. His personality was a great mix of humor and local know-how. While he didn’t spill too many trade secrets (understandably!), he kept the trip engaging and productive. If you’re chasing reds around Rockport, he’s absolutely worth booking. Solid guide, solid results.

    Had a great time. Slow start but s great finish. Probably the weather. But was the most fish we have caught in a long time. Hit the grand slam. We really enjoyed the trip Travis. Thank you so much. We will be back!!! And don't forget, if you find that cork let me know what it was and how big. Trey, thanks for your help in getting everything worked out on the booking. You got us a great guide. 👍👍👍
