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 jigging charter?

The most popular season to go on a jigging charter is summer, and most anglers book their trips 69 days in advance.

    I was disappointed, we did put a few fish on board but that was about the only positive part of the trip. To start with he was 15 minutes late. When he arrived we had to go across the bay to get bait which took another 45 minutes. To top it off his boat was not running well so we stayed in pretty close to the harbor. So we paid $600 for a 3 hour trip. Josh seems like a nice guy but if he is going to charge like a professional guide he needs to run his service like a professional.
