Is booking a hunting guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a hunting guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced hunting guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is outside 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, 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 backyard, 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 rifle hunting trip?

The most popular season to go on a rifle hunting trip is spring, and most hunters book their trips 63 days in advance.

    Justin was the best possible guide we could have got for this trip. He went out of his way to get us on the fish quick. We were able to catch 5 different species. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate and we had to cut the trip short but he did everything possible to make it a memorable day and allowed us to bring back a lot of fish.

    Trip: Iguana Hunt With Iguana DOG!!!

  • ★★★★★
    Would definitely rate this 5 ⭐️’s. Charlie was the best host for our iguana hunt. He kept us informed and was very accommodating. He worked hard to make sure we had an amazing experience even without seeing loads of iguanas. Charlie and Cassie have eagle eyes and were able to point them out to us. They were fabulous hosts and if we get back to Ft Lauderdale we will be doing this again!!

    Captain Chris was great. He has an uncanny ability to spot the iguanas in the trees. Also very knowledgeable on area wildlife. I would go with him again.
