I am taking my wife and two kids deep sea fishing in July. Although I have been out several times, they have only bay fished. I believe you can buy Dramamine over the counter for motion sickness, but is there something better. I want them to have a good time and want to do it again. Anybody have a suggestion to prevent or minimize their chance of getting sick?

I've had many of people take ginger pills, bonine, dramamine, and the patch get sick offshore.
I fish offshore alot, run out 100 miles or so on alot of trips. Sometimes the conditions just make for a bad mix.
If it's bumpy especially and the boat rocks while fishing. Not so bad if your moving.
If you do take dramamine, you might need to take some caffeine with it. Drink something with some caffeine if you get to drowsy.
If they do start to get to feeling bad. Just go to the back, finger in your throat and get it out. You'll feel better pretty fast after that.
But what I find best, after any thing thats been taken to prevent it. Is plenty of water, cold fluids. Don't eat alot of food. Fresh fruit, and don't look down at the deck , look out.
I hope its a nice day, for yall.
