Fishing Instructor
A good fishing guide has to like people. This is not a job for somebody who wants to be alone. They need to have patience, and they need to know that there's gonna be varying levels of expertise with people who want to come fish with them. They need to be able to speak to people in a way that they can understand and still have a great time during the day. The other thing is they need to have a flexible mindset. -
