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 Andrew is a very knowledgeable guide and treated us like old friends. Because of his expertise and clear instruction we caught some fish, had some laughs and made great memories. I’d recommend him to everyone!

    We had a great time out with our guide Andrew. Super personable, easy to talk to, and the skill set to match anyone’s needs. He was a great instructor, willing to go the extra mile to make sure my partner and I were having fun and catching fish. Would highly recommend him for anyone in the St. Pete area looking to get out on the water.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our time together! He was very easy to book with and made the day so smooth. He is a great guide and very knowledgeable about the area .He knew what our goals were made the day really enjoyable! We got to see dolphins, rays and other wildlife. He set us up to succeed and we were able to catch many fish an kept some. He went above and beyond and helped me catch and land a shark which was the highlight of my day. I highly recommend Captain Andrew if you are a novice he is a very patient teacher and guide. We will hire him the nex time we come to St. Pete!
