Question; should guides have to be licensed to do business in the state of Louisiana?

Many states require an outfitters license in order to guide paying clients. Outfitters in these states are listed in the data base and any complaints lodged against them are public record. The thread about the guide service called Laccasine Outfitters brought this to my mind. If they had to be licensed to do business those who booked them probably would not have.
Let the buyer beware is a phrase used frequently but doesn't ring true when you are the one who got took.

Let the fun begin

Yes, I believe licensing would help everyone even the guides.
