    I took my wife on a date to Chart House in Dana Point and the most expensive plate on the menu was Halibut….
    My wife laughed because that day I caught 2 and she finally realized the worth of me getting out there and bringing home some of the best food in the world 🍻…
    You’ve been an inspiration, congrats on your continued success

    • @rvmcwhorter
      @rvmcwhorter 11 місяців тому +1

      You gotta get a client at a restaurant and have a commercial license. That’s all it takes . You gotta Know how to handle your catch and bleed and ice it properly . They might want fillets . You just cater to the restaurant . It’s extremely hard to make a living but you could make a few bucks when the timing is right for the fishing. But like I said , make a living ? Not feasible.
