We’ve Got You Covered

OGA offers to our guide members a suite of services to support your business, your family, and yourself on the water and in your everyday life. The Outdoor Guide Association is a one-stop-shop for guide protection and support.

Membership to the Outdoor Guide Association is $50 per year.

  • Guides need liability insurance just to be able to perform their duties legally, but not all insurance is created equal. OGA offers, through our partners at Cross Current Insurance, our members high-quality Liability, Accident, Life, and Disability protection. No matter what happens, we have you covered. Our discounted, industry-exclusive insurance options mean you don’t have to stress about the unexpected.

  • Guiding is a taxing, physical job that can be hard on your body. This exclusive, comprehensive health insurance plan, through Cross Current Insurance, gives you access to essential services including dental, discount vision, and medical care. Having a high-quality, affordable plan will help you stay healthy and minimize your out-of-pocket cost when health care needs arise.

  • Guiding can be enjoyable but taking people fishing for a living still brings plenty of stress and challenges. You act as a counselor to your clients every day, but who’s looking out for you? An OGA Annual Membership provides two months of free mental health support services through our partners at BetterHelp should you need the help of a professional.
