good evening. i woke up this morning and when i looked out my window, this is what i saw. blue skies and a nice rainbow. then i went outside to get my boat ready for a dive. as soon as i opened my house door, i was freezing my ass. it was sooo cold today…
i have some charts of the whole island and reefs at my house. i was checking it out this morning. this is how i find dive spots, reefs, and fish…
and when you have your secret spots, you catch fish. i don’t think kyle knew that he was going to catch his biggest kumu ever today. i say solid 3.25lbs or more. we were out about a mile out to see in 80′ deep water. klye dove down 80′ when he saw the fish sleeping outside of a hole. he approached the hole, woke the fish up, then speared it. the fish pulled him around for 30 seconds but he didn’t want to let go of the most prized and hardest to catch fish in hawaii. a lot of work for this fish but well worth it… kyle and his family are going to have a great dinner tonight…
ryo is from japan but is a attending UH as a graduate student. an active member of the surfrider foundation, an active surfer, and an active diver. ryo is active. he must have speared 25 fish today, including 2 tako. great job ryo…
all 3 of us were freezing on the boat. as soon as i jumped in my car, i put the heater on. this is the 2nd time in my entire life i used my car heater in hawaii. tomorrow might be the 3rd… got many of stories, many of thoughts, and many of dreams. but too tired right now. going to hit the bed and sleep like a little baby. nobody better bother me… goodnight…[:Zzz:][:Zzz:]
**by the way, i made up kyle’s story. the fish was actually sleeping in a hole in 6′ deep water. he went down, shot it, and that was it. that easy. what a lucky guy… haha…
