[QUOTE="Ankeny, post: 87537, member: 4821"] Man these guys nailed it. I am not wealthy by any means but I always set aside a chunk of change for a tip when I go fishing up north because I know what guides get paid and I know how they appeciate a client who shows their appreciation. A couple of hundred dollar bills wrapped around a fifth of good whiskey won't break the bank. FWIW, a friend of mine who guides had a client give him a brand new Swarovski spotting scope at the conclusion of an antelope hunt. Several years later the client returned and shot a fine bull elk. At the end of the trip he handed my friend a .300 Mag Sendero topped off with a Swarovski Scope. The hunter is a Swarovski Distributor, but still... My point is, a tip is a sign of gratitude not welfare. [/QUOTE]
