did about 100 dives the past 2 days. and probably 150 more in the next 2 days. all deep, and all very long. i had to go 52′ and stay down for 2 minutes for the fish i caught yesterday. i came up and wanted to throw up. lucky i have a dive buddy watching out for me.

this morning was just another amazing golden start. we were on the boat riding into the sunrise.

dolphins jumping everywhere. one huge dolphin even jumped right on the side of our boat. so high and so fast and so long. longer than any sea world jump. this is the real thing!

Kyle and Cathy Nakamoto have every trip planned out. all i do is come and enjoy the ride. everything so organized, everything so smooth, and everything so perfect.

Kyle and Cathy always make poke on our trips too. this is spicy tuna poke, hawaiian style!

we have a cool crew from hawaii. Mike on the right is a dentist in hawaii and that’s his son Eric on the left. they just started spear fishing and this trip is going to take them to another level! i still remember being a virgin to spear fishing. everything amazed me, and still does. these guys must be freaking out.
well, gotta wake up early again. the tournament starts so i’m just going to look for the biggest fish possible. not interested in small fish on this trip so my eyes are wide open. there will be 12 competitors teaming up 2 so total 6 teams on 6 boats. where will everybody go tomorrow? i don’t know. and where will we go? i don’t know. our team name is “Go Big and Go Home.” haha. good night from full moon mexico!

A very happy man today!

Yes I am!!!! Viva Mexico!
Mucho Gracias!!!!
