Wasn’t deep sea fishing and kept taking the line off my son everytime he caught something. Guide spoke zero English

Expensive tour but we see dolphins

Very expensive for what it was. Tour only lasted 2 hours and that included going out and coming back. Was meant to be 3 hours. Also would’ve been nice if the guide had spoke a bit of English to tell us about whales etc he spoke zero English. I asked why only 2 hours but was ignored
