I thought the trip was terrible, we did more boat riding than actual fishing, not only that we fished with dead bait for the last 1/2 of the trip. You are not going to catch a good fish with dead bait in most cases, it was a wasted fishing trip, I have been with much better fishing guides many other times. The guide fishing trip was very disappointing plus our fishing guide got sick...
