Before paying an Arizona guide
Guide license required
Required for anyone who aids another in taking wildlife for pay (A.R.S. 17-362). Fee: $300.
Guiding without one
Guiding requires a guide license ($300; 18+); violations can cost the license for 5 years, 10 years or permanently.
No public list of guides
The AZGFD guide license page explains the hunting, fishing and combination guide licenses but publishes no list or lookup of license holders, so ask any guide for the license before paying.
Ranches in the Landowner Compact
Landowner Compact Agreements open private ranches (for example Boquillas-Diamond A and Perrin ranches in Unit 10, Fort Rock Ranch in 18A/18B, Bar T Bar and Flying M in 5A/5B, Walking Cane Ranch in Unit 7) with ranch passes or rules.
Scouting tools that are banned
No trail camera images or data, satellite images or audio location devices to take or locate wildlife; no aircraft to take, pursue or locate wildlife for take.
Reservations are separate
Tribal governments set hunting and fishing rules for their reservations; hunting there, if allowed, is controlled by the tribe. A state license, permit or tag is not required to hunt or fish on a reservation, and wildlife lawfully taken there may be transported anywhere in Arizona if identifiable as to species and legality (R12-4-117).
