We are considering putting together a group deep sea fishing trip in the fall but we need to be sure we have enough people interested to rent out the full boat.

The cost will be approximately $100 per person and includes transportation from the Post as well as the deep sea fishing excursion.

From what I understand while on the boat the deck hands take care of everything for you as far as baiting your lines and taking care of the fish. They will even clean the fish for you when back at port.

If this is something you are interested in please sign up at the Post.
