Dad's Wish

Last night during dinner we were talking about what we wanted to eat so my dad said he wished for a 3 lb aku.  So we boarded the Red Sea boat and headed out for a troll.  Waves were big on the eastside and we heard yesterday the channel was even closing out due to the large swell.  On board today was 12-year old Brandon Yamane.  His dad Keith dives with me often and he was about to witness the next generation in action.  After about 1 hour of riding the ocean settled down and we got strikes periodically.  Brandon ended up reeling in 3 akus, keith 1 aku and we were happy campers.

Came home and my dad was also stoked because his wish came true.  He got his aku and immediately he took out his knife to start filleting the fish.

From the fillet knife to the plate, we had fresh sashimi and sleeping good tonight.  Thanks Brandon, Keith, Cat, and the Red Sea Crew for all their help!
