when i first started diving in high school, my dream was to spear a small papio, or “travelly.” got it. 10 years ago, my dream was to spear an “uku.” got it. 8 years ago, my dream was to spear a big ono or “sawara.” finally got it. my next dream? spear an elephant. haha. just joking… i guess my next dream is to spear a big tuna or “maguro.” it might take days, or it might take years, i might see one, or i might not, i might miss, or i might lose my gun, it might kill me, or it might not. that’s the part of diving i love most. you don’t know what will happen, you can only imagine….
wanted to thank kyle for taking this photo that day. also thank you for taking us on your boat, and thank you for giving the fish the backup shot. i couldn’t have done it without you. and for of those of you who want to see the video, please wait because i’m too busy. i got the fish coming in, the shot, and everything else. i just wish i had the sharks trying to eat me. i’m still bummed at that…..
