Should have been much better. The trip was scheduled for 8a-1p. We got started about 830a. We caught the first and only fish about 2 hours in. We trolled for another hour; no fish. We dropped our lines for about 30 minutes, then one of the two engines stopped running. The fishing ended there. We got back to shore about 3p after a slow ride back. Capt Adv arranged for a $200 discount to accommodate the inconvenience. I'd rather have had a productive day fishing.
