Last year I took my first salt-water fishing trip from Harbor Walk in
Destin.
We did kinda the same thing - trolling in a circle for half a day.
However, I had fun (aside from nearly puking my guts out from
sea-sickness) and we caught a boatload of legal mackerel.
The mate cleaned them and divided them up evenly between everyone and
of course we tipped.
It was a good first time chartering a boat.
