    Should Fishing Guides Be Licensed?

    in General Chat - Fishing Related

    Posted

    I see the points being made..... whats the protocol in places like montana and some other big fishing destinations? How do they regulate their guides while still providing equality on the river ect ect. I say if there is a really good system somewhere we should adapt such a system to Alberta...... Unfortunately I have little experience with guiding practices in other places.

    I think Glen should be licenced just like any other large pet...... JK buddy (but seriously tell the GF to get you fixed atleast)

     

    I gotta say I feel about the same way as Glen. I don't feel that licensing is the issue, but we should have better monitoring all users of the fisheries. If a guide guides fine..... but he should get hammered (so should everyone) for any regulation infractions. If a guide is obeying the regs what harm is he doing...... But that said a licensing system would be ok if it was not exclusive as I feel all Alberta guides should have even opportunity to guide on Albertas waters..... If some guide or company can monopolize the guiding rights to a water then its unfair to other guides. Thats to do with the whole rod days thing.... but honestly I am not completely familiar with the system so maybe I should not comment on it. I would kinda like it if only holders of an Alberta residents fishing license were allowed to guide on Albertas waters for money. But maybe thats unfair.... i dunno

    I like it...... Not gonna buy it but I think its a pretty sweet rod. Its a manly pink. And really its not how the rod looks in your hand its how a nice tight 30 foot loop looks in the eye of the person who was just laughin at yer pink rod..... I am a little surprised though to hear ladystrange say that its tough in a fairly male dominated sport...... Do you just get that over the shoulder half scowl with the unseen but felt thousand yard stare hiding beneath dark polarized sunglasses when you walk past other anglers?

    I agree with rick.... I think its a great idea flytyer and when everyone is goin nuts during the winter it should pickup..... I was also thinking that maybe some sort of process change might help....... maybe if we just leave the next participant open and maybe make a rule that you have to wait atleast 2-3 full turns(additions) before you can add again..... every new component adds a new direction to the fly so even if the participants are fewer and more frequent as long as they are not making more then 1 turn at once the direction will keep changing and 1 person should not gonna influence the tie too much. If we happen to get 2 posts at the same time that create a conflict then first posts stays....... flytyers the man though so thats just an idea
