Rank Best in the World!
FishingBooker, the largest online platform connecting anglers and fishing guides worldwide, awards its best captains with the Angler’s Choice Award. The exclusive award honors the top captains on the platform for their efforts in providing the best possible fishing experience for their customers. To account for the very seasonal nature of the fishing business, captains can earn the award every three months.
Once a year, however, the top captains of the platform are honored with special recognition. These captains have been working hard to provide the best possible fishing experience for their guests year-round and earned the exclusive reward three times in a row.
Out of 7,242 captains on FishingBooker only 576, or 8%, received this extra-special recognition.
36 of the winners are in the Tampa Bay area. Charter captains in Pinellas County were the majority with 25 winners operating here. 159 captains in the county are registered on FishingBooker, meaning that over 15% of them won the award. A win rate way above the average. Fantastic results!
To be eligible for the award, the charter operators had to meet the following criteria:
4.8+ out of 5-star review score from 10+ verified reviews.
98% reliability score or higher
98% response rate or higher
Full business verification

Vukan Simic, CEO of FishingBooker, says: “We’ve been awarding the Angler’s Choice Award since 2015. In October 2022, we started releasing the award quarterly with tougher criteria than ever before. We wanted to recognize and honor our most committed captains, and to make it easier for anglers to identify the very best guides on our platform.
Now, we have the pleasure of recognizing a very special group of guides who have earned the award every single time since the new version was introduced. We couldn’t be more excited to honor them for their hard work and dedication.”
