Not true about needing to a "Coast Guard Licensed Captain" to be an ice guide. This is the wording out of Matts link he posted .


"If you are only aplying for an ice fishing guide license, the information regarding the boat and Coast Guard license can be
disregarded; unles, you are using an airboat. If you are using an airboat to transport people to/from your ice shanties, a
Coast Guard license wil be required. Either way, you wil ned to know the number of ice shanties and the general area of use"
