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.

    Cory was an awesome guide. He was very communicative by calling ahead and making sure we had a plan tailored to our family. The fish were finicky, as they can be, but Cory kept at it and made sure we had a great trip!

    Trip: Wade Fishing Port A

  • ★★★★★
    We had SUCH a fun time fishing out on the beach! Tristan adjusted our time so we would have more action with the sharks biting. He let us experience everything for ourselves from the catching of the bate to the reeling in of the sharks. Would definitely do this again with Tristan!

    Trip: Shark Fishing Port Aransas

  • ★★★★★
    We had an epic cast n blast with Chase. Chase sets up mobile duck blinds so you can set up right where the birds are vs hoping they fly to your one blind. We cruised around, found the birds, and set up our blind for an evening hunt. Then we waded the flats and caught literally hundreds of redfish with plenty of keepers. We got back into the blind and saw thousands of ducks across the way from us on the water, but they never flew our way. All in all, 10/10 day seeing tons of ducks and catching a mess of fish. Thanks Chase, will be back!
