113-270.4. Hunting and fishing guide license.
(a) No one may serve for hire as a hunting or fishing guide without having first procured a current and valid hunting and fishing guide license. This license is valid only for use by an individual meeting the criteria set by the Wildlife Resources Commission for issuance of the license subject to the limitations set forth in this section. Possession of the hunting and fishing guide license does not relieve the guide from meeting other applicable license requirements.
(b) The hunting and fishing guide licenses issued by the Wildlife Resources are:
(1) Resident Hunting and Fishing Guide License - $15.00. This license is valid for use only by an individual resident of the State.
(2) Nonresident Hunting and Fishing Guide License - $150.00. This license is valid for use by a nonresident individual in the State.
(c) The Wildlife Resources Commission may by rule provide for the qualifications and duties of hunting and fishing guides. In implementing this section, the Wildlife Resources Commission may delegate to the Executive Director and his subordinates administrative responsibilities concerning the selection and supervision of hunting and fishing guides, except that provisions relating to revocation of hunting and fishing guide licenses must be substantially set out in the rules of the Wildlife Resources Commission.
