It's a plain old business license for taking peoples money in exchange for goods or services. It's not a wildlife business license.
Went to Winthrop last season and went knocking on doors as both of my sons had 2 doe tags each. One guy had 26 does on his place and he said we could shoot them for $200 each. Seemed like a steep fee. I went and talked to the neighboring property and they gave us permission. They were very happy to help out.After I had processed the deer I made them up a nice basket and took it back over to them. Venison steaks, breakfast sausage, pepperoni. Several fillets of salmon along with some smoked salmon and few fillets of halibut. They were pretty happy about that.

The only requirement for guiding other than the business license, would be permits for hunting public land. You can't guide on public land without a permit from the appropriate agency.

It's been hotly debated on here, as well as within the guiding community.WA is one of the few states that do not require a hunting guide license, however I do think we will eventually see that we will close that revenue generating change.
