We have fun and we catch fish and a cold beer when we get back on land is awesome. All expenses (gas, bait, ice etc are evenly divided with the group picking up the boat owners share.) Typically 3 days off shore split 4 or five ways will come to 200-300 bucks per person total for all 3 days.
You just got on my "good guy" list! And did I mention that I LOVE fishing? Which time of the year is the best?

Personally I just started getting Seabass here in Norway, which was not a part of our fauna until mid 90s. It is a really fun fish to catch. Other than that it is salt-water trout, salmon and halibut is always fun - especially when you get the 150 pound ones. In the local lakes I typically aim for the trout - hard, but fun to catch.
