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.

    If you want a good fishing trip you need go out with Jonathan he was a great guide he will explain a lot of good fishing techniques and really nice about it .he knows some good spots to fish we caught a few different species and we missed a few .but we had a great time he even let us fish longer then what we booked. And he has very nice boat with all the electronics. we will go out again with him next year when we are here for vacation.Thank you Jonathan

    Jonathan is an awesome guide. He is incredibly knowledgeable about bass fishing and uses that knowledge to find where the big ones are hiding out based on weather, time of year, time of day, etc. He taught us how to cast into different types of locations for best placement of the bait and how to work the bait to attract bites. My son and I are novice bass anglers and Jonathan was super patient with us, teaching us how to cast properly and get up to speed. Even though he’s a very accomplished sport fisherman Jonathon was never arrogant or impatient with us newbies. He was focused only on us having a great time fishing. One thing I didn’t think about going in but turned out really important is that he has an awesome high end bass boat. We went from spot to spot at high speed so no time wasted. Additionally, he has a setup that allows him to move the boat around a fishing spot at low speed, hands free, while he helps us with our fishing and fishes some himself, showing how it’s done. We used this capability to circle a large patch of lily pads and fish the entire patch. And the whole time he is talking to us and demonstrating techniques and showing where to cast into the patch. I would heartily recommend going fishing with Jonathan! Hope to do it again soon.
