BUT, i know if i dive down and wait patiently, something will come to me.  i drop to the bottom, wait, wait, and wait.  then from the far distance, i see this big red kumu swimming slowly towards my direction.  i shake some sand off the bottom to get him interested, it worked.  i get the shot perfectly in his gills.  dinner is going to be good tonight!<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_9451.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_9451\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-67485\" \/><br \/>\nbut before dinner, let&#8217;s talk about lunch.  eggs benedict.  wow!<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_9450.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_9450\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-67488\" \/><br \/>\nand chicken quesadilla.  double wow!  delicious!   waves good, diving good, lunch good, friends good, and everything good today.  so happy and so tired.  good early night!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>i spent the last few days tuning up my guns. it&#8217;s been a while since i&#8217;ve used them so had to change the line, rubbers, and make some fine adjustments. i usually carry 3 guns on the boat. one for big fish, one for medium fish, and one to let someone borrow. all 3 in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-67484","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-kirby-blogs"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67484","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=67484"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67484\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=67484"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=67484"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=67484"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
