at least your honest but cant see why that has anything to do with catching more fish. sounds like your wanting your clients to do all the work as opposed to hiring some extra help. why even take civilians. sounds like you cant be bothered. i would never book a trip knowing this going in. believe it or not there are some civilians that can fish and hunt o.k. good luck with that business model.
Working as a team the gear like downriggers are brought up and stowed quickly and the fish netted or gaffed, the downriggers are deployed quickly and only then are pictures taken. Sometimes the bite happens for only minutes and the quicker we get the gear back fishing the more fish we will catch. We have more civilians returning as customers than veterans but those who return are team players never have I had a veteran not a team player.
