Why Hire A Fishing Guide In The First Place?
Investing in a trip with a good fishing guide is money well spent. It's the fastest (and most enjoyable) way to put yourself way ahead of the learning curve. Whether it's learning a body of water or a fishing method, expect to be in the hands of an expert. There are professionals people seek guidance from every single day: doctors, real estate agents, nutritionists and so on. Fishing is no different.
Here's the #1 thing you need to remember when you're hiring a guide: you're paying for their years of trial and error, hard knocks, blood, sweat and tears and accumulated fishing knowledge. A good guide has put in the leg work and tapping their knowledge immediately puts you on the fast track to better fishing success. And take it from me---there isn't a magazine article, DVD, seminar or anything else that will supercharge your learning like fishing with a good guide will. Experience is irreplaceable.
Think it costs too much money? Consider the amount of fuel you'll burn looking for fish on your own, sometimes fishing in the wrong areas altogether. You can also spend a lot of money on the wrong tackle. It all adds up. Plus, there's your time invested, which really has no price tag. A guided fishing trip suddenly becomes a small expense. And most importantly, it's an investment that will pay off for the rest of your life.
