This paragraph explains it.

"Not only is a guide always considered a guide, if you share the costs of a fishing trip with someone who is not a licensed guide, you are considered to be on a guided trip. This presents many problems. First, the expense held over one person for a fishing trip. If you fall under this rule fishing with friends, neighbors, or family, and split the cost of a trip, 1) you could be held responsible for guiding without a license, 2) over-limits of a federal fish, 3) failure to complete a saltwater logbook entry, 4) retaining halibut on a charter trip without a CHP. It could go even further with safety equipment violations, lack of appropriate insurance, etc. All just to go fishing with family or friends."
