Just got back from Port Aransas after spending 8 1/2 hours on a charter boat in the Gulf. It was really tiring and we didn't catch anything. Anyone else done it? Got anything to show for it?

I go normal fishing all the time.
Never been deep sea fishing.
My fishing buddy has invited me though.
I think I will give it a shot.

i've always wanted to go deep sea fishing, but i haven't had a chance. my dad used to do a lot of sport fishing in south florida and the caribbean before i was born. he used to have a marlin hanging on his bedroom wall when i was little. i think he had to give up fishing because of his back, so he never got to take me.
