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.

    Larry was great! Super nice and very knowledgeable. I have always been hesitant to go wade fishing, but Larry made it easy. I caught reds and my first ever flounder. All on artificial baits. I learned alot and am looking forward to booking with Larry again. I highly recommend taking this trip.

    Captain Joe was awesome!! He was very helpful with my little one and my wife. We all were able to catch something, even thought they were a little too small to keep. We all had a great time. We will definitely use captain Joe again, highly recommend him for your next guide trip.

    Alex was an Amazing guide! We caught our limit 1/2 thru the trip! Captain Alex DEFINITELY knows how to find the fish! We were on the Reds right away! It was awesome seeing the school(s) of Reds and watching Captain Alex maneuver the boat and basically chase them down! After we hit our limit we went for Sheep Head and Black Drum. Wanna go “fishing” call anyone…wanna go “CATCHING” call Captain Alex! Brian & Dylan Silvert

    Got out with Mitch for a buddy's bachelor party and had an absolute blast! Some of the guys hadn't fished in a while (or at all) but Mitch was super patient in showing them the ropes. Mitch fishes super high quality tackle, had plenty of bait, and the boat was running smooth. We ripped it to a number of spots from surf fishing outside the jetties to countless inshore spots. We missed a few bites but had an awesome time, thanks Mitch! – Jonathan with Captain Experiences
