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.

What month is best for on a live bait fishing charter in Rockport?

    Joe took us on a wonderful and very active fishing trip. Joe has hosted me and my family prior so we knew we would enjoy another trip with him. He made us feel like family. Joe is very familiar with great fishing spots. He accommodates with great tips, instructions, and caters to everyone in the boat to ensure we had a wonderful experience. Thanks Joe look forward to seeing you on our next trip! Blessings and happy holidays!

    Trip: Family Friendly Rockport

  • ★★★★★
    My husband and I are seniors and Jodie and Justin took very good care of us. The boat was clean and spacious for the 4 of us and Jodie handled the travel portion well, no bucking in wakes. We each had a guide to bait, cast, and net our catch. They also cleaned our fish and bagged for freezing. Caught our limits and had a very good morning. Jodie went above and beyond to make our experience good. We will definitely be calling Jodie again. 5 star Captain.
