Just saw a craigslist add of a guy offering guided hunts for $100 just for his time....some of it on his own land but he also said on public land....is it legal to guide a hunt on public land and get paid for it?

It might be worth it if you were going to an unfamiliar area and only had a short amount of time. Having someone that is familiar with the place can really shorten the learning curve.
My thought would be that the guy is just gonna set you up in any old spot and take your money anyway. Or he will intentionally take you to places where there aren't deer and keep you away from the spots he hunts himself

Heck when it comes too public land hunting I can be an outfitter and show them plenty of sign and where too hang a stand and they can sit there all day long and not see a shooter deer because they're all nocturnal lol.... @ a 100.00 a pop lol....
Gee on the other hand he maybe the best guide in the country. If he's OK a 100.00 tax free per day isn't bad wages to have fun especially if he has couple guys per day. Never know.

If he's not bonded or insured and some hunter he takes out gets hurt he could get sued and lose his house. So, yes it is perfectly legal.

I have no need to ever consider anyhing like this, but there is a sucker out there somewhere that will lose $100...just seemed laughable when i first saw it...at least he is trying to think outside the box about his unemployment...just doubt his intentions is all
