### 5/5 — No one compares to fishing booker

*2025-08-24, version 2.60.1*

Absolutely a pleasure to do business with. We have grown exponentially faster because of the talented and dedicated team at fishing booker. Very easy to work with, quick communication, excellent problem solving, and the best marketing team you can hire. If you own a charter company and want to take it to the next level, there is no better option than this. We are now working on three more locations outside of key west including Daytona, St. Augustine, and a lodge in Alaska. Rest assured we will have all of our listings connected with fishing booker. Thanks and tight lines my friends 🤙🏼

FishingBooker has been a great platform for my charter business. It has helped me reach clients that I would’ve never reached before. With FishingBooker there is no gray area. The client knows exactly what they’re getting when they show up to fish on your boat.

### 5/5 — Great for Guides

*2025-05-12, version 2.56.1*

FishingBooker is great for anglers and guides alike.  They were the first to market and spend the most on advertising. I’ve used other platforms but I get the most bookings by far from FishingBooker.   Other apps try but don’t come close at the time of writing this review.  The features are great and easy to use, their support is easy to get ahold of and responsive.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2019-03-25, version 1.2.2*

This app does nothing for me, I have to go on the actual website to reply to my messages. If I reply to a message on the app I go to send a reply and it deletes it. Please do something about customers that want to speak on the phone versus an instant message that I can never reply to. Customers think I do not reply to them because of this! As a captain my lively hood depends on a working app and website!

### 1/5 — Worst App developers

*2019-02-11, version 1.1.3*

App is below par standards and can’t even do the simplest of function, which is to implement a ‘delete’ function on messages. Useless!

### 1/5 — App won’t work

*2018-11-20, version 1.1.2*

Just says something went wrong try back in 15 minutes.

### 1/5 — App stopped working!!

*2018-11-01, version 1.1.2*

Now just get a message “something went wrong try again in 15 minutes”

### 1/5 — App won’t work

*2018-06-16, version 1.1.1*

App says something went wrong and to try back in 15 minutes

### 2/5 — Old version worked. New version is not working

*2019-03-24, version 1.2.2*

Need help.As a captain and businessman we need this app to work and function 100% of the time. We love using fishing Booker is a resource for our charters and our businesses. The old version worked great. I have downloaded the new version over a dozen times and every time I try to login something bad goes wrong with it. I end up having to delete it. And then reinstalling it. Once it’s reinstalled none of my reviews or information shows up on my page like it normally did. Fishing booker please help us captains get this issue resolved thank you

### 4/5 — Owner/Captain

*2026-06-24, version 2.70.0*

Would really like to see boats separated by offshore and inshore. Most folks do not notice filters. I.E. clients should pick type of trip (offshore nearshore or inshore) when they select date of trip desire

### 5/5 — Another good season

*2026-08-13, version 2.71.3*

Happy to be finishing up another great season with FishingBooker. Great service.

### 5/5 — Clients

*2026-08-02, version 2.71.1*

Amazing client showed up on time fun having the boat very personable!!

### 5/5 — Great Platform

*2026-06-30, version 2.70.1*

I have been using FishingBooker for Captains for nearly 3 years.  It is a great way to get more trips booked and earn new customers.  I even use the calendar to schedule all trips I book, even that do not come through the app.  I highly recommend this for Captains that are just starting out, and to those that have been guiding for years!
