Easy, show me that this price advantage was used and you got me!
I don’t have to show you! That he didn’t pay for a license, like other guides gave him the advantage to be able to undercut them! That he did or not, isn’t the question! He was competing with them and had less of a financial burden!

Originally posted by skinneejWhile that is an excellent thesis, I guess you don’t understand that he has his license now, hasn’t changed his prices now that he has a license, and is still taking charters. Thus, what you are saying has proven to be false in this instance.
You must know this dude. ok now he has his license, but only because he got caught. 
Of course he can’t change his prices… should actually be cheaper now to have to get business. If I was a local and he was in my “back yard” I’d be telling everyone just what a tool this guy must be. Come on… …
Funny but maybe I just have a new perspective on Fritz. ? I do admit that he was right on stone ground grits. 
“If Bruce Jenner can keep his wiener and be called a woman, I can keep my firearms and be considered disarmed.”
I didn’t realize people booked charters based on price alone. Maybe Fritz can do a price match guarantee like Best Buy…
Ironically, this same group of people was involved in a discussion about a month ago on how much guides should charge, and don’t remember a discussion about permit prices driving their business model.
Fred, I have to believe that Fritz, plays by the rules in his business dealings, or he would have been caught by now! I can understand where he’s coming from!
Just for the record, I actually like Fritz and would offer the same defense for him if that was the case.
How do you feel about a guide who gets invited to fish on your boat and when you take him to your primo grouper hole, he brings his handheld GPS? Stealing or not? Ethical or not?

Does said “guide” have all the proper licensing?

Originally posted by CaptFritzHow about this scenario,
One guide has to charge $400 for a trip due to all the licenses he purchases
Another guide is able to charge $325 for a trip because he doesn’t buy the license.
I think he charges $400. What do you charge?
Also, why don’t you guys put your rates up on your website? Is there some hidden yankee tax that you add on for those with an accent?

I would support any local businesses that openly added a “yankee tax” to their price structure. Know that.

Seems like a fair trade to me! Grouper come and go, but an electric filet knife is forever:question:

Since you like Fritz and he did something illegal, you’d defend him? Even though he was in the wrong? come on skinny, even you have to admit defeat once in a while.
