Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't hunting guides who take people in boats have to have a charter license.
As far as limiting the number of guides. That's ridiculous. Anytime the government places artificial limits on supply of any product/service then the price will surely go up. The governments job is to make sure that a person is offering this service in a safe way and hold them accountable if they are not. Let the market determine how many guides are needed.
I now step down off of my soapbox.

Saying a hunting guide needs a license bc a fishing guide does is not a fair comparison at all. As stated before, you have 3 months a year vs 12. And a 6k a year lease. And the countless trips you make preparing blinds. And decoys. And as far as i know, you don't need a charter license to bring people duck hunting in a boat. If that was the case at least half your duck guides would be breaking the law
