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.

    Amazing trip! Chandler is personable and makes the trip a great time! Even before the trip, we communicated well and had the day planned out very well! He knows his stuff! Highly recommend!

    Trip: Sight Casting The Flats

  • ★★★★★
    Had a great time on a guided fly fishing trip in Port A with Chandler. It was a windy day, which made casting and poling the skiff a bit challenging, but Chandler stayed positive and was super helpful. I didn’t catch any fish this time, but he gave me great tips to improve my casting. The skiff didn’t have a seat, so I sat on the floor which is totally fine for me solo but something to consider if you’re going with someone else or need more comfort. Overall, a good experience and I’d definitely book with him again!

    A little bit of a tough day. Saw lots of fish but they just were not biting, but Travis went above and beyond and found a pocket of tailing Red. He found fish and put me on them and that is exactly what you pay a guid to do. Great job!!!

    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. 👍👍👍
