I dont wanna come off as trying to be slick or anything but i guess from an etiqutte standpoint, should you let the guide know up front your wanting knowledge or do you just show up and be an observant customer? Ive never hired a guide but ive wondered that from time time. I can understand it from the guides point of view trying not to divulge too much info since that is thier money maker and it wouldnt be good for business if 1 guys pays the fee then tells his grapevine of buddies how and where and when then the guides fish start getting sore mouthed or fried! Maybe some guides would change thier plan of attack knowing your looking for info as paying $300 or so for a good chunk of knowledge it took him possibly years and years to aquire.
Moral/ethical dilemma on both ends in my opinion....i dont know. Just curious.
