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 Richard was great! Easy excursion, smooth water and we beat the rain on our return. And the family got to catch some fish! Can’t wait to do it again next year!

    Kurt was a terrific guide and a great teacher for my 8-year-old son's first experience fishing. My son had a terrific time and all he can talk about is when we will next go fishing -- a real credit to Kurt. We will 100% go out with Kurt the next time we visit Hilton Head.

    Had a great experience out on the water with Captain Blair. He answered all my kids questions about sharks and fishing in the ocean. Ended up getting six fine tooth sharks.

    What a fantastic day on the water with Captain Kurt!! Super nice fella, very amiable, very knowledgeable and great fishing guide for Hilton Head. We thoroughly enjoyed the time with Kurt and the fishing experience. Kurt is very helpful, provides excellent guidance and at the same time, somehow manages to not intrude. He is very professional and clearly loves what he is doing. We will not hesitate to call on Capt the next time we are on Hilton Head and looking to do some fishing. Thank you, Captain Kurt!!! Kurt is also a former Marine, and on this Memorial Day weekend, we thank him for his service to our Country.
