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 name is Lonnie and I booked a trip with Captain Experiences. A simple 4 Hour fishing tour out of Galveston Texas. It was set up and ready to go I received an email on the morning of the trip saying everything was good to go. We drove 3 hours to the location that was provided. We arrived and waited until after 6:00 AM. Nobody ever showed up. I called the only phone number provided by Captain Experiences nobody answered. Finally we found the Captains phone number on Facebook and called him. He let us know that the trip was canceled yesterday and I ask why I was not notified at all? A simple text-email-phone call could have changed everything for my family and I. My suggestion to Captain Experiences is give everyone the Captains information so the trip can be verified the day before. Sorry I would not recommend this company to anyone!

    Lonnie W. with Ralph F. of Galveston, Texas

    Captain Ralph was absolutely amazing. He helped my fiance' every step of the way since it was her second time ever fishing, and made her feel comfortable. He was personable, fun, patient, and incredibly kind. He got us hooked up with some massive bull reds and went above and beyond to try to get us hooked up as much as possible. I will reccommend him a million times over. This was such an unbelievable experience and me and my family will remember it forever, and will be booking with him again!

    Sloan P. with Ralph F. of Galveston, Texas
