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 white seabass fishing is spring, and most anglers book their trips 17 days in advance.

    Jermeys Son Jackson was a solid captain and put us on all the target species for this time of the season. Our first mate Ed was also great and showed my 8yr son a lot of attention. (Which is slightly on the spectrum) The booking service also showed there colors by offering to discount our trip after learning that I am a disabled veteran.

    Harry and crew were so patient with my teenagers. This was our first time out on the sea. The boys had a blast! Harry made sure that everyone caught fish. Thank you again and I would highly recommend.

    Jeremy was our captain for the nearshore fishing trip in Long Beach California. The trip was wonderful and he got us onto fish and even fillet’ed them for us. Everything was provided and their communication was great. I highly recommend a fishing trip with them!
