I'm kinda with you on that one Munna. As long as those outfitters have treated you, as well as the clients, properly then it just wouldn't be proper to steal their client base. Now, having said that, If what they liked the most about your employers services was YOU as a guide then I personally don't think it would be underhanded to let those clients know that you are striking out on your own. As oldtimr put it, it's a dog eat dog world in business and the pups are often left with scraps.
