| +1 to Kyle!
Sad part is that most of the guides have priced themselves out my range.
Guess I'll be launching and casting the same spots fighting them for spots and fish. |

Location: Mt. Zion, IL | Absolutely they have priced themselves out of my range. I can go to other trophy waters for half the price with quality guides. |

Location: Wisconsin | Green Bay Guide pricing is out of control. you can go to St Clair for 2 full days for the price of 1 full day on Green Bay. you can go to Eagle lake for a week for the price of 2 full days on Green Bay. When guides are rolling around with new $150,000 boats every year, I know they are charging too much lol. It's the old salesman's rule, "don't drive a more expensive car than the customer"
Not to mention, we see all the great fish they catch, but rarely do they talk about the 6 days prior they got skunked...

| If the guides are indeed over charging, the most basic of economic theories, supply and demand will take care of that over time. But, if they continue to have all the customers they desire, they will keep charging. Guiding on big water is not a cheap endeavor. Big, stable boats, reliable motors, etc. Insurance is expensive as well. 30 years ago, guides wouldn't have even thought about liability insurance, but today is a different time. Everybody sues over everything. |
