today was yet another beautiful day in the ocean. spent the morning organizing for this big upcoming weekend. so many things to prepare for but it’s so fun learning new things. it has always been a dream to be able to do every single thing in this world. one day, it will happen. so after some sweat and tears, i took to the ocean with some friends.
it was absolutely perfect for free diving! the water was soooo calm and clean!
checked out my first 2 spots and BAM! enough fish for the week. i couldn’t believe how comfortable i feel underwater waiting for the fish to come into my range. had to spear a couple of these behind a sharks back.
i crack up watching Yuko-chan spearing fish. this is the only person in the world that can dive underwater wearing a full wetsuit with no weight belt. yes, no weights! i couldn’t even dive down and stay underwater without any weights. and yes, she’s getting really good with the pole spear. another delicious hole in the cooler.
and i couldn’t believe she speared a freaking Roy too!!! omg, to pole spear a Roy takes patience, breath, and talent.
then we started to fish. no bites but enough fish for a weeks party. i watch Reid trying so hard to catch a fish and i just laugh inside because i know it will happen someday. he’s going to throw out his pole and a 100lbs. ulua is going to bite it!
i got a request for an uhu. so i took a drop, passed up on another big kumu, and waited for this big uhu to come and say hello.
got the perfect shot and this big boy is going to taste so good in the oven!
coming back in is always rewarding when you have fish in the cooler. another day in paradise. heard a rumor that the Eddie might GO next week. don’t believe anything until a day before. just check back and i’ll give you updates. goodnight.
