The most common fishing techniques are trolling, bottom fishing, and light tackle fishing but artificial lure fishing and live bait fishing are popular as well.

How much do false albacore fishing charters cost?

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.

The most popular season for false albacore fishing is summer, and most anglers book their trips 13 days in advance.

    We had a great experience with CPT. Kyle, he kept us on the fish. Ben, his deck hand was amazing and helped out tremendously. Definitely recommend this crew and boat. My family and I had a blast.

    Trip: Destin Trolling & Bottom Fishing

    These guys are Awsome!!! Captain Nick was so sick with Kidney Stones and you couldn’t tell. He still took us out, I felt so bad for him. He went straight to the E.R. after. We caught over 60 fish as soon as we put our line out we were pulling them in! Great guys, highly recommend!

    Kyle and Ben were great. We booked a full day and started at 5:30 catching out bait fish on the way out. My daughter and I quickly started getting motion sickness. My son and husband held on for a bit and were able to get a few catches in before they also felt the sea sickness. We headed back early. Ben and Kyle handled everything great and tried to still make it the best trip possible for us. Thanks guys! And sorry we weren’t more fun!

    Trip: Destin Fishing Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Captian Nick and 1st mate Trey were amazing...! The bite was a challenge but our guys never gave up or stopped. A few moves and we caught plenty of fish for dinner with some decent groupers to top it off. Nice variety of fish from one of the biggest White Grunt I've ever seen, big Laine Snappers, Vermillion Snappers and a bunch a almost keeper Red Snapper mixed in. (Stubborn snappers...) Its called fishing, not catching... Loved their personalities from the start, conversation came easy and made for a very comfortable trip out. Thanks to both for a great day out on the beautiful Florida waters. WE WILL BE BACK from Philly, PA next year...! 🫡🎣💪
