We went out early one morning. Remember to negotiate with the captains. Don’t pay more than $300 for a boat. We had three people, went out for 6 hours and had a cooler full of Coronas and water. We enjoyed the sunrise, dolphins jumping next to our boat, and great scenery of Acapulco Bay. We didn’t get any hits until on the way back. My husband let me catch it since it was my first time deep-sea fishing. It took me about 20 minutes to get it in. A lot of work, and if you have carpal tunnel, this is not for you! I ended up catching a 6 ft, 80 lb sailfish. They asked me if I wanted to keep it, and we didn’t, so they donated to the orphanage for the kids to eat. That was the best part of catching it, I thought.
