Founding Guides · By invitation

Be the guide anglers ask before they book.

We're choosing one founding guide to anchor each region. If that's you, your local knowledge becomes the reason travelling anglers plan their trip around your water — and you get paid for the advice you already give away.

“Every region has one guide people mean when they say ‘you should talk to…’. Founding Guides are how we make that name official — and turn the trust you've already built into income between trips.”

Why we're starting with a handful of guides

What a Founding Guide gets

A founding place is earned once and kept. These terms are for the first guides only.

Founding Guide status

A permanent founding badge, top billing in your region, and a seat among the first names on the platform. Being chosen is the point.

Your region is yours

We feature one founding guide per region — so the anglers planning a trip to your water are pointed to you, not a crowd.

Keep 100% of your advice

Zero platform fee on what you earn from calls, threads and questions — the founding rate, locked to your account.

A share in what you build

Founding guides don't just earn from their own advice — you share in the growth of the region you help put on the map.

No commission on your trips

We don't sit between you and your guided-day bookings and we don't poach your clients. Advice is a new line, not a tax on the one you have.

Shape the product

A direct line to us. Founding guides tell us what to build next — and we build it around how you actually work.

What we ask in return

Founding status is a two-way deal. It holds while you hold up your end.

1

Answer your anglers

Reply to threads and take your calls. A founding region can't go quiet — that's the one thing we hold you to.

2

Bring your people

Point your audience here — a link in your bio, a mention in a video. The followers who already trust you are the ones we serve.

3

Set your own terms

Price your menu your way — a monthly thread, one-off calls, pay-per-question. Your expertise, your rate.

Why this is a small list

One founding guide per region. Once a region is anchored, that founding place is taken.
