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.

    Really chill guy, we caught lots of fish, and mi friends and I had a great time.

    Trip: 3/4 Day Bay + Jetty Adventure

  • ★★★★★
    We had an incredible day on the water with Captain Troy From start to finish, this fishing trip exceeded all expectations. The captain was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone felt comfortable. The boat was well-equipped, and safety was clearly a top priority. We were taken to some fantastic spots where the fish were biting almost instantly. The Captain even handled all the cleaning of our catch so we could just relax and enjoy the day. On top of the fishing, the scenery was stunning—calm waters, clear skies, and even a few dolphin sightings along the way. It was the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. We left with fresh fish, great memories, and plans to book again soon. Captain Troy's nursing background really helped ease any motion sickness worries and calm first-time nerves, my son is 7 and he had a blast! If you’re looking for an unforgettable fishing experience, this is the trip to take!

    Trip: Epic Redfish Pursuit In The Bay

  • ★★★★★
    Took my 5-year-old son, my nephew, and his dad out with Capt. Troy, and let me just say—it was a blast from start to finish! Rods were bending left and right as we reeled in sand bass, black drum, a couple of sting rays, and some croaker. The kids were grinning ear to ear the whole time! Capt. Troy was patient, fun, and made sure everyone—especially the little ones—had a great experience. Nothing better than watching your kid hook into a fish and yell, “I got one!” over and over again. It was good times, great memories, and an all-around awesome day on the water. Highly recommend booking a trip with him if you’re looking for a fun family adventure!
