"My wife and I took the 4 hour deep sea fishing tour yesterday. What a great time we had. Deckhands were wonderful and very helpful, the Captain was quite the character, calling out what everyone was catching as they reeled it in. There were perhaps 20 people on the boat and I think everyone caught fish. "
