Everything to Know About Booking a snakehead fishing charter

What are the best snakehead fishing charters?

What types of snakehead fishing charters are common?

Lake fishing is the most popular type of fishing for snakehead as well as river fishing, inshore fishing, and nearshore fishing.

The most common fishing techniques are live bait fishing, light tackle fishing, and artificial lure fishing but topwater fishing and sight casting are popular as well.

How much do snakehead fishing charters cost?

Prices for snakehead can range anywhere from about $397 to $1,300, but the average price for a half day trip for snakehead is $725. The average price for a full day trip for snakehead is $839.

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 snakehead fishing?

The most popular season for snakehead fishing is summer, and most anglers book their trips 70 days in advance.

Do I need a fishing license for snakehead and what are the bag limits for snakehead?

    Trip: Peacock Bass: Fly or Spin

  • ★★★★★
    Jusin was able to put together a great Cast and Blast trip for us.  He does work very hard to put together a good trip.  Fishing for Peacocks, he did make several moves to various spots and successfully put us on fish.  Hunting for iguanas, again he was able to put us on them for a total of 25 iguanas.  Lunch was very good, and along with good weather made for a really good trip, would definitely recommend.

    Trip was fantastic, very knowledgeable guide. He knew all the best spots and taught me multiple new techniques. Caught multiple species on live bait, artificial, and I even caught my first fish on the fly. Absolutely amazing time. The shore lunch tasted fantastic!

    Had a great trip with my 2 boys (18 and 21). Have fished with guides all over the US and Justin ranks very highly. Great day fishing in the Everglades with 8 species caught. Had a good lunch and then relocated to hunt in iguanas. Lots of iguanas and a great day of memories. Highly recommend!!

    Andrew was an excellent and joyfull guide. He had us on peacock bass within minutes of our start and we caught the trifecta of peacocks, clown knife fish and large mouth. My son and I will definitely use him next time!

    Captain Justin was awesome. He made every effort to make the day a memorable experience for my husband and my sons. They caught lots of fish and thoroughly enjoyed the iguana hunt. The guys also enjoyed a delicious lunch cooked by the captain himself. They look forward to scheduling another trip with Justin and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun day of fishing and/or iguana hunting.

    Had an absolute blast!!! Justin done a great job putting us on the fish we where after! He's also excellent at spotting the iguanas we where after! Would definitely recommend him as a guide to anyone wanting a lifetime experience!!!!

    Trip: Cast and Blast Adventures

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Justin was awesome. Caught 9 different fish species with him during our fishing part of the trip. He knew exactly where to cast,what to cast, and how to work the fishing pole. The hunt part was amazing as well. Got 12 Iguanas, one being around 41 inches. Justin has the best eyes when it comes to spotting them. He’d point one out while going full speed in the boat. it would take us 10-15 second to spot it. If you want to do an iguana hunt in the Fort Lauderdale area, book Justin.

    Captain Justin was great!!! He put us on the fish all day. Wide open fishing, we caught 5 different types of fish. Captain Justin did a great job taking photos, sharing information and showing us some wildlife. There were lots of alligators.

    Trip: Peacock Bass: Fly or Spin

  • ★★★★★
    Great fishing/hunting trip Justin was a great and knowledgeable guide. He is very positive and always has a pep in his step. Me and my girlfriend came down from Alabama and stayed in Everglades city. We met Justin took us less than an hour. We did the cast and blast combo we fished first and then hunted second had a blast on both parts. Got over a half a dozen nice iguanas and at least 5 different species of fish one being peacock bass(my favorite). I’m very thankful to Justin for guiding us and I would definitely recommend booking him. Me and my girlfriend will be back.
