On Lake Michigan, and Lake Winnebago systems, all guides have to have
their captains license. I guess if I put in the time, money, and
effort, I would use the title also :-).

Does anyone else find it silly to hear a fishing guide call himself
"Captain"? Maybe I'm just being nitpicky but it sure seems
pretentious to me. I was just looking at a fishing tabloid in which
Scott Martin has a column. He is listed as "Captain Scott Martin."
