The Maine Professional Guides Association

The Maine Professional Guides Association is composed of Registered Maine Guides. The guides listed in this directory are members in good standing of the Maine Professional Guides Association. If you are in need of a Maine Guide you can search their website for one. Here is some info on this association taken from their website.

"All Registered Maine Guides have a commercial motorboat operators license and have completed at least one first aid course. They have also successfully completed a written test and an oral exam on the Maine outdoors and all applicable laws. Guides Licenses are issued for the categories of Hunting, Fishing, Recreation, Sea Kayaking and Whitewater Rafting (for rafting trips on specific rivers). A Master Guide license is held by the most experienced guides, and often covers multiple categories such as hunting, fishing and recreation."
