Like fishing for compliments, fishing for fish requires the right bait, the right line, and a friend who is willing to exaggerate. Reel it in with today's Groupon: for $149, you get an 8–10 hour fishing trip for two from Profishguide.com in Tillamook (a $400 value). Customers must bring a valid fishing license to use this Groupon.

Skilled, experienced captain Ted Teufel, a licensed guide in Oregon and Alaska, scouts out seasonal swimmers during educational excursions to Tillamook Bay and other regional fishing holes. Groups of four to six fishers climb aboard a 22-foot Willie boat and hit the scenic waterscapes, patrolling rivers for hefty salmon, acrobatic steelhead, and misplaced giant squid. Throughout the trip, Teufel will tap into his vast fishing knowledge to bestow wisdom upon novice pole wielders. The precise location of each trip varies by season and fish's zodiac signs, but every trek includes all necessary equipment and bait. Tour-goers should bring rain gear and a camera, and since each excursion can last for up to 10 hours, twosomes are encouraged to pack a lunch.
