We live in a house and have a 48' boat for off shore fishing charters. Believe me, we are very glad to get off her at the end of a typical 12 to 14 hour day. Leyla has been fishing with me since she was 12 weeks old and has great sea legs. Keeps her balance all the time and doesn't seem to mind the rough waters. She is getting more and more interested in the bigger fish. We boated an 80 pound amber jack last week and she went nuts trying to see this thing. Had to let her investigate before she lost her mind!
