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.

    Excellent- will fish with Graham again.

    Trip: Backcountry Light Tackle & Fly

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Matt was a great guide. He had a very clean boat and was willing to teach some of us inexperienced fishers. He was courteous and friendly throughout the trip. The boat ride allowed us to see other parts of South Carolina we would not see otherwise. He was kind enough to rescheduled us when our original date was going to have terrible weather. Captain Matt also made sure we caught fish during our fishing trip. He tried different ways of fishing to catch them given the weather. We were able to catch enough fish to then head to Water's Edge where they cooked our fish for us for dinner. He helped us find restaurants nearby where we could do this. Overall, a wonderful experience with Captain Matt. We highly recommend booking with him.

    Adam was early and ready to go at 6:30am. We had a tough day with clouds and wind but made the most of it. He was very helpful with providing tips and tricks to improve my casting in a respectful way. He taught me a lot about the redfish habitat and their mannerisms. Coming from Canada, I had never salt water fly fished before, but Adam was welcoming and showed me the ropes. Would definitely gonaga

    What an AMAZING trip we had out on the water with Ronnie. Seriously couldn’t have asked for a better day from catching bait to catching our dream fish! Ronnie is very experienced and had so much to offer! If you are looking for a lifetime experience in Charleston, SC. BOOK with Ronnie!

    Trip: Low Country Inshore Slam

  • ★★★★★
    10/10 if we could put him up there , went out for a bachelor party and had a great time with Carlo. We had to cut the day short for some people and take them back to the dock but Carlo offer to take the rest of us back out for a couple more hours after. Definitely be using him every time we go out, not to mention we caught some of the biggest drum and sheep head inshore we’ve seen.

    I went on a 6 hour inshore/shark fishing trip with my 16 year old son and we both had a blast! We've done a lot of offshore fishing before but never inshore. Our boat Captain Walker knew exactly where to find the fish and was an all around just a great guy. We're considering booking another short shark fishing trip before we leave. Can't recommend these guys enough! We drive down here often to visit family and we're using Matt and Walker from now on. Highly recommend!

    Dustin gave me a fabulous day on the water. I learned more about fishing today than I had ever learned before. He was incredibly helpful, extremely knowledgeable, and gave me hints about fishing in Charleston that were spot on. When Dustin told me where to cast, and how to fish based on the cast, he was right in all occasions. He went out of his way to make my trip something to remember forever
