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.

    Trip: Key West 47 Ft Hatteras

  • ★★★★★
    Scott was incredible. We had 3 kids on board and he was very patient and enthusiastic the entire trip. He put us on the fish quickly and we stayed on them. We were catching fish until we had to head back in. I would highly recommend beating the heat with a 6am start time, and would definitely recommend the 6 hour trip to give yourselves the most time on the water and better flexibility for traveling to different spots. If you’re surfing the web and wondering what guide you should go with, then look no further. We will certainly be booking with Scott again.

    Trip: Spend Your Day On The Water With Us

    We had a fantastic time seeing the dolphins come right up to the boat. And watching my grandson and granddaughter in their glory catching some sharks and other fish. Cory really knew his stuff… we couldn’t have asked for a better guide.

    We had an amazing experience! He was very patient with my seven year old and seemed to genuinely love what he does! We will be going again next time we are in this area!

    Trip: Port Orange Offshore Adventure

  • ★★★★★
    We booked a trip on their 47’ Hatteras, and it did not disappoint. Captain Nels put us on consistent action all day long and you could tell right away he knew exactly where to look and wasn’t afraid to move around until we found them. First Mate Tyson kept things running smoothly the entire trip. The whole crew made the day easy and fun for everyone on board. The boat itself was comfortable and well-equipped. Highly recommend Mark and his team for anyone looking for a productive, well-run trip. We’ll be booking again!
