FISH AND GAME – Amends existing law to provide an exception to the terms “outfitter” and “guide.”

This Idaho bill (H 15) amends state law to clarify who is exempt from being classified as an "outfitter" or "guide" for licensing purposes. It creates four specific exceptions: private landowners providing services on their own property, equipment renters (like horse rentals) who only accompany hunters for incidental safety during livestock retrieval, qualifying 501(c)(3) nonprofits offering outdoor experiences to youth, and accredited educational institutions. The law ensures these groups don't need licenses unless a written agreement with a property owner requires one. The changes take effect July 1, 2025.
