every country has different ways of doing things. in hawaii, we do it one way, in mexico, they do it another. all i do is sit back, watch, and enjoy.
we got transferred to our 30′ power cat. the smoothest ride out out there.
auk equals ahi. if you take the time to fish for small aku, it ups the chances of getting that big ahi.

Kyle knows all to well that this is the way to bring in the tunas. he says aku is like rock candy to big tunas. they just can’t resist.
20 years ago i use to think blue water free divers were the craziest people in the world. now i’m one of them. and i feel like i’m in a great place. towards the end of the day, i almost fell asleep underwater. did some 75′ dives into the unknown. and when the big tuna appears, you have to keep calm or you will never make it back to the surface. it’s good for my mind because i get excited for everything.

fried aku and ahi.
as fresh as can be! we catch what we eat.
who’s bombing syria? just take a look. i met a canadian at LAX and he was telling me how sad he was about american pulling them into the war. he said they shouldn’t even be involved.
want to wish Kazubo-san and Hard Reef in okinawa a happy 25 year anniversary. sorry guys i couldn’t make the party. i sure have some great years of memories there!
when Miwa-san sent me these photos, i thought they had a strip show after??? come to find out, one of these beautiful girls is Kazubo-san. really? he looks hot! haha.
last night, the owner of the place we are staying at came over and gave me some beers. then he gave us a glass of tequila. omg, it was so good! i sipped it slowly and enjoyed my night remembering what a great day we had. will definitely be sipping on another glass tonight.
