Default Re: Party boat prices

Life has gotten more expensive for the captains. Milk, chicken, beef, pasta..these guys have to put food on their own tables...Bigger concern is that these guys have to raise prices in a time where the fishing is getting worse. Guys that are meat fisherman will just not go if fishing is up and down. Dads that were thinking about taking two of their kids will have to drop down to taking one of their kids or go less. That's not the Captains fault, it's just life. I believe in these guys and support them 100%. A sponsor on this boat didn't allow me to pay for my son when he was about 7 years old. His quote was " we need more kids to come out fishing, I'll happily take your fare but he rides for free". They are not being greedy by raising prices, they're doing it because they have to.
