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.

    Me and my family went out with captain Zach and had an awesome day. Weather wasn’t in our favour but made the best of it and landed some fish! Captain Zach was very helpful, runs good fishing gear and has a beautiful boat. Will be booking our next trip with him when we’re back in south Padre for a family vacation!

    Ruben was amazing! He knew the areas to go to catch fish, but we got so much more. We saw dolphins swimming, learned more about the area, and caught so many fish! His recommendations for where to take our fish for dinner was also great! We will book another trip with him!

    We had an amazing time fishing with Captain Cliff in South Padre Island! He was incredibly patient and helpful throughout the trip, ensuring we were comfortable and had a great experience. The boat was spacious and well-maintained, giving us plenty of room to enjoy our time on the water. Captain Cliff was friendly, timely, and took us to some fantastic fishing spots. We highly recommend him for anyone looking for a fun and successful fishing adventure!

    The captain and deck mate were excellent. Took two boys out for their first off shore trip and they are still talking about how much fun they had. I highly recommend this guide definitely worth the price.

    Mike knew the bay very well and did his best to put us on fish. I only had two issues with the trip. It might just be his personality, but I found him to be condescending when I asked questions. I also think he fishes too much. It was like we paid to take him fishing.

    Trip: Triple Delight - 3 Person Bay Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Do you want to go fishing or catching? That is a question Captain Jeremiah will definitely answer for you with a resounding "We're going Catching!". He and his boat, The Classic, are based out of Port Isabel where Captain Jeremiah grew up and acquired the skill, knowledge and love for fishing. You might think that you are just going fishing, I mean catching; however, with Captain Jeremiah, you get a lesson on the past, present and future of Laguna Madre, Long Island, Brownsville Ship Channel and the surrounding area, as well as, an occasional sea turtle, shark and dolphins sightings. But let's talk about why are here.....Fish! Captain Jeremiah knows just the right areas to hit and will put you right on top of those Big Reds and then it's time to work it hard. The four of us limited out in the slot range in about three hours, but we were having a blast catching and releasing those that didn't meet the slot requirement....sometimes four hooked at the same time. The last hour, before we headed back to port, was spent trolling which produced a nice Spanish Mackerel and a pretty large Ling. Trust me, next time I go out on a Fishing Charter, it will be with Captain Jeremiah on his Catching Charter!
