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 going on a artificial lure fishing charter?

The most popular season to go on a artificial lure fishing charter is spring, and most anglers book their trips 34 days in advance.

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

    Captain Scott is so good, we are pretty much novices when it comes to any kind of fishing but he is patient, explains what to do and also all about the different kinds of fish we caught. He made the day fun and was very engaging with the kids too. I would absolutely recommend him!

    Captain Billy is awesome. He goes above and beyond to ensure you have a great time. He put us on numerous fish as we weaved and darted all thru the area fishing inland waters for snook and redfish. If you want a great time on the water, ask for Captain Billy.

    Mackie was a great guide!! Highly recommend him for anyone looking to have a successful day of fishing! The music on the boat was a bonus. He really worked hard to get us on a sheephead, and we endef the day with a nice red!
