so happy to see Nao-san enjoying the beauty of Japan! 
if you haven’t tried free diving, i would highly recommend it to you. you will see experience peace at its best…
Nao-san is lucky i wasn’t diving with her because i would shoot that fish and eat it for dinner. she’s an observer and i’m a hunter. haha.
i will never forget this day at HT’s in the Mentawai Islands. the waves we got were incredible. i wouldn’t be surprised if it was the biggest and best it ever got out there. i can’t imagine it being better than that. here is Hayato Maki getting ready for the barrel of his life. i’m pretty sure he didn’t forget that day too…
when you shoot a big fish, you basically have one shot. if you shoot the fish right, it will die instantly. if you don’t, there’s a good chance you will lose the fish and it will swim off and die later. so when you see a monster fish like this swimming by you, you better be calm and aim right. and if you think keeping calm is easy, it’s not. my heart was pumping when i saw this big boy!
