This is how I learned sea sickness is not completely mental...

In 2006 I went on a trip to Alijos Rocks on the Red Rooster 3.Since I battle with sea sickness I played it safe getting a prescription for scopalamine patches from my Dr.
It was an August trip which a 7 day to alijos at that time is prime time but also for hurricanes which is why there are no 10+ day trips scheduled in the summer.The weather was up,it was baja hot and the fishing was insane.Wide open 50-80# YFT and wahoo.I was slathering myself with sunscreen and had wiped the patch off from behind my ear without noticing.
while on a bigger model YFT,I got sick out of the blue,Instantly like a freight train.I died getting that 50+yft in and yacked my brains out.I washed behind my ear and put on another patch,but they take a while to kick in so I thought I was screwed.Another guy gave me a scopace pill and I was back out there in 30 minutes.

Normally I just take bonine.Bummer is beer and bonine dont mix well.The more time spent on the water will get you to deal with it better.

It was a great trip though.

I was fishing at night dropper loop with 2# macs.Guy next to me catches an 84# YT,the 4th largest out of diego.I caught a few "smaller ones"
