Depends I guess 3 days at a lodge in bc we had 3 different guides 1 guy was awesome, knowledgable, and showed me lots. Gave him $100 the other 2 were idiots one smoked pot, which I'm not against on a day off or even as a guest but not very professional and he just burned out and didn't put in any effort, he got 0. The last guy couldn't be bothered to to move around or try different set how when things wernt working he also got 0.
6 of us go up a lodge in northern sask. He will guide you but he's also cool just letting you hop in the boats and fish for yourself. Him and his wife do clean fish and do all the cooking and are very pleasent. For 7 days I left them $150 but some guys didn't leave anything. Their choice and frankly the cost of the trip can be a lot to some people and that's their budget.
I guess what I'm getting at is depending on circumstances, at the end of the day did you get what you wanted out of the experience..... Keeping in mind catching fish is not a guarantee.
