Guide help?

[Setter]

Just a few questions for any guides out there who would answer my questions.It seems some guides do not like to answer questions so maybe someone could help me.First of all when it says licensed guide service how do you become licensed?Is it as simple as buying a license? Also do you carry guide insurance and whats that run?Lets say you go to a lake and start to guide.You charge $200.00 a day to guide for a full day and all the other local guides are charging $250.00 a day for a full day.Would this make all the other guides mad because your trying to under sell them? Or do your better guides always charge more than a guy just starting? Thank-you to anybody that can help with my questions.I've been in a union plant for 12 years now and someday I would like to do something I want to do and be happy doing it.Life is to short not to fully enjoy it.Ryan Hale
