provide for the licensure of fishing and hunting guides, and to provide a penalty therefor.

Summary

The bill adds fishing‑guide and hunting‑guide licenses to South Dakota’s licensing system. Anyone acting as a guide must be at least 21, carry $1 million liability insurance, be certified in first aid/CPR, and pay a fee; providing guide services without a license is a Class 1 misdemeanor for each client served. It also gives the Game, Fish and Parks Department authority to deny, suspend, or revoke licenses based on misrepresentations, prior violations, or felonies.
