How did you get to be an official guide?

I just asked, then attended a day-long orientation. 98% of the people
who apply to fish are capable fishermen, the guides are just there to see
that they stay in their assigned beats, don't litter, don't smoke, don't
stuff a cooler with fish, and don't die on the hike out. We "keep an eye" on
the other fishermen by staying a polite distance downstream, catching the
ones they missed.
