Spend $700 on gear they might use once a year, then spend a ton on bait, fuel, hotel stays just to hit the coast once or twice. The way I see it let’s say John Doe spends $1500 a year on his 2 trips a year with his own equipment ($700)and catches nothing or maybe just a few whiting, or whatever. Most folks I have taken aren’t local and don’t want to spend their money that way. Spend your money how you see fit, Fish how you want, with who you want, however often you want...just get kids or anyone interested involved and make sure they have reasonable expectations NOT ONLY in fishing but in life too. Even guides have slow days on the water but what people take away from the trip excluding fillets should be worth the cost of admission. If I could afford to take trips for less I would, and I’ve donated plenty of trips. Facts are, boats, maintenance, and living expenses dictate the cost of a guided trip. There are a few making great money but most can tell you it’s not a glorious lifestyle, just a choice to do what we love and get paid for it while sharing the outdoors with folks that may not have a chance to get out very often.
As long as guides are considerate with fish population and do the right thing I have no issues with guides. Heck, just ticked me off the time I did see a guide pull up close by and let his clients take all kinds of sizes just to make them happy. After all, this is our sport and the better we take care of it and protect it the more our future generations can enjoy a life lived outdoors and not just in front of a tablet

With that mentality God is gonna send another 100 year freeze next year to prove you are not Him. We have a responsibility to manage what we can but WE ARE NOT IN CONTROL.
