Becoming a N.H. Hunting or Fishing Guide
A guide's license authorizes the licensed person
to "direct, aid, assist or instruct another person in taking
wildlife in this state" and to charge a fee (RSA 207:1 XIII).
A person may become licensed to guide for fishing,
hunting or both.
The minimum age to become a guide is 18. Applicants
must have a clean Fish and Game record and clean Criminal record.
The person must complete an application form and pass a 50-question
written exam for the specific license (must take both tests for
both licenses). Click
