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.

    5 STARS Captain Corey is truly top-notch! From the moment we stepped on the boat, he made us feel welcome, safe, and excited for the day ahead. His knowledge of the water, weather, and fishing spots is outstanding — we were reeling in fish in no time. He provided great tips, top-quality gear, and a lot of laughs along the way. You can tell he’s passionate about what he does and really cares about making sure everyone has an amazing experience. We’ll definitely be booking with him again — highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun, successful fishing trip!
