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.

    We had an outstanding day fishing with Rooster & Braxton on Christmas Eve Day. We limited out on red snappers in a hour with a 12 pound average. Would recommend Rooster as a captain because he is very knowledgeable & patient with novice anglers.

    Trip: Captain Daniel's Fish Frenzy

  • ★★★★★
    We had a great time with Captain Andrew and team catching fish and navigating the waves. We were put right on the best areas to catch the snapper we were after. Also, when we forgot a jacket onboard in all the excitement of disembarking, Captain Andrew went out of his way to get it back to us. Thank you for helping make my husbands birthday one to remember!

  • ★★★★★
    Had a really great time it was my son‘s birthday and my two grandsons was with him and a couple of friends and Captain Willis really did this extraordinarily great great kid Jake his first mate was jumping around the boat putting bait on my hooks really did great. I recommend this crew For your fishing experience and later met the owner Danny at his restaurant, all the guys are telling Danny about their experience on the boat. All excited the food was good at the restaurant Danny’s group at the restaurant was perfect. Danny is the owner was really phenomenal, on his appreciation of our decision to do business with his Services offered. If you’re looking to have a great experience, I would suggest you look these guys up in Port Aransas

  • ★★★★★
    Excellent charter trip. Very hot day but the air conditioned salon was just a step away for cooling off. Easily caught limits of Kings and Snappers plus added a few Barracudas. I recommend Capt “J” for deep sea fishing.

    Captain Dan and his crew are great. If you choose any other charter to fish with you are missing out. They will work hard to get you on the fish and take care of you. Give them a shot you won’t be disappointed.

    Capt Blake and deckhand Bryson were awesome. This is a nice yacht disguised as a fishing boat. Nice accommodations with an excellent A/C even on the bridge. We picked up a load of snapper and a nice wahoo while trolling.

    Trip: 8 Hour Trip w/AC!

  • ★★★★★
    This trip was so fun, we caught snapper, gafftop, and 2 stingrays, and one was a monster. Andrew knew where to go and his boat was very nice, he’s the best hype man too, always excited when a fish is on! Jeff was the bomb. He made sure we always had our lines ready and in the water and helped us pull up them Rays when our arms were wore out!

    Trip: Luxury Offshore - 55’ Hatteras

  • ★★★★★
    First off Danny communicated well about where to be and what time the day before our excursion. Once we got started it was clear that he was very knowledgeable and knew where to go to maximize our fishing efforts. Him and his deck hand made sure that our family of 4 always had a baited pole in our hands and were ready to grab any fish that we caught! We would absolutely go fishing with Danny again!

    Tricia R. | June 8, 2024

    The BESTEST -Mark and Rooster could not have been nicer, more accommodating, or worked any harder to be sure that I caught fish! This was a bucket list item for me and I’m thrilled with my experience.

    Trip: Offshore Corpus Christi

  • ★★★★★
    We did not have a good experience. The seas were very rough, we got sea sick, completely drenched and my husband fell out of his wheelchair when the boat hit a big wave at about mile 13 or 14. He was stayed seated on the floor of the boat as we attempted to continue out. After about 1.5 hours, we were less than 20 miles out, we decided to ask the captain to turn around.
