Deep Sea Fishing with Pastime Princess

Every since I was a little kid I wanted to go deep sea fishing and never had the chance. My dad and I went to Florida this past year to do just that.

We went on the Pastime Princess. It was $65 for an 8 hour day, which is a pretty good deal.

There was people on the boat of all ages.

If your looking for something to do with your kids this is definitely it.

There is nothing like the smile on a young kids face when they are reeling in a big fish like a shark, that they see on TV and in aquariums but never have one right there face to face.

But don't worry there is no danger, the staff is very friendly and helpful. They will take the fish off for you as some can be dangerous. They also educate you before hand on which fish you should leave hanging off the side of the boat as they may be a threat.

There are also photographers on board that take pictures and post them on their website so your family can look back at the fun you were having the next day by going online. Also if you are a fish-eater this is the place for you, because you get to keep the fish you catch!

They even clean them for you at no charge! (but do encourage tips)

I cannot wait to go back again. This was a blast!! This is located in the Daytona Beach area and I would HIGHLY recommend anyone to experience this. But if you are prone to sea sickness I would definitely take some medicine to prevent that before going or you'll end up like my dad, who still enjoyed it, but probably not as much as he should have.

Here is a link to their website http://www.pastimeprincess.com

Hope you enjoy this as much as I did!!
