Section 50. Transfers of a Class A fishing guide license

A. A Class A fishing guide license may be transferred from the current licensee to another person with the approval of the commissioner. Transfers may be temporary or permanent. A temporary transfer shall authorize the person replacing the original Class A fishing guide licensee to serve as a fishing guide from the date of the transfer to the end of the license year, and following that time period, the original Class A fishing guide licensee shall retain eligibility for a fishing guide license. A permanent transfer authorizes the person replacing the original licensee to serve as a fishing guide for as long as he continues to qualify for the license, and the original licensee shall lose his eligibility for a Class A fishing guide license in future years.

B. No transfer of a Class A fishing guide license from a resident to a nonresident or nonresident to resident shall be approved.
