Ice Taxi's ?

[Lakeerieguy]

No guide license is needed to run a ice taxi on Erie as long as you do not provide any fishing supplies such has , holes drilled , bait , shanty stuff like that . Have good insurance however because if something happens , your on the line for it . Take people out and the crack opens, have a way to get them back since you took them out . Sled has problems , have a back up to get back out to pick them up or once again your butt is on the line .

Money to be made for sure as I did it on 09 out of then Crane Creek for 50.00 round trip .Made an avg of 300.00 bucks a day that winter. Would bring both quads just in case something happened to the main one .Keep a list with names and numbers of the guys you run out to make sure you get them all back in as well as your responsable once they pay you .


If you feel better about having a guide License , just go to the DNR in Sandusky and pay 50.00 for an ice fishing guide license and then you have one .

The main reason people dont do it much anymore is because of the liabilty .
