What types of snakehead fishing trips are common?

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

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

How much does a snakehead fishing trip cost?

Prices for snakehead can range anywhere from about $400 to $1,600, but the average price for a half day trip for snakehead is $839. The average price for a full day trip for snakehead is $1,108.

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 66 days in advance.

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

    Awesome fishing trip can’t say enough good about José. His boat is top of the line and he took care of all of our needs on the boat and made it such a great experience. Caught some really nice peacocks was a special trip

    Trip: Epic Everglades Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    Amazing cast and blast day! Captain Justin is dedicated to getting you on fish and iguanas. We had a great day filled with five different species of fish and plenty of iguanas (14). We will definitely book another trip in the future! I highly recommend the homemade shore lunch. We had lemongrass chicken and it was great! Can’t say enough good things about this experience!

    Fantastic experience with Ricky, and it didn’t hurt that we caught 30 plus fish (five different species) in four hours!
