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.

    Had a good trip with Captain Chris. Beautiful day and some good fish …Drum and trout!

    Trip: Low Country Inshore Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    We had an awesome time fishing Charleston with Capt. Chris. Chris, Ronnie, and Kendra were super communicative leading up to the trip, and were straight with fishing conditions (high tide, full moon, etc.). We had a tight window and they made it work. While the fishing was slow, Chris gunned it to a number of spots up the rivers, out to Fort Sumter, and even out to the jetties. He was super outgoing the whole time sharing stories about the area and history of the forts, and cracking some hilarious jokes. Thanks Chris, Ronnie, and Kendra, we'll be back!

    Had an excellent morning inshore trip with Chris! Nice boat, very friendly, great conversation, music, and put us on some fish right away! Would absolutely recommend and will absolutely be calling them again when we’re in town again!

    Justin was great! My son and I had an amazing time fishing with him. He will be our first call when return back in town to go fishing. The fishing trip over the summer is all my son talks about!
