Weekend Warrior

Getting the Red Sea boat ready for the long weekend. Hoping to see color! If you know what I mean...

Action shots

Hook up pic!

Fish hammer time. Thanks Brent for the photos.

Jurassic World

Still got lotsa production going on at the heeia pier. Even spotted a few dinosaurs hiding under cover.

But since I'm a regular and my dad is a fixture we got da pass! Mahalos to AF team for their support!

Makata Ahi

Congrats to Jaime and Ryan from Makata lures for catching their first Ahi! Thank you for sharing your awesome fish!

Gassing up for next trip and the miso mayo angel came to visit! Mahalos Timmy!

Gold Silver

Took a early run out with Brent Ching in search of dinner. He got da pass!

We found some gold early and silver later in the day! 

King Tide

Live action with king tide in Kaneohe. Went to see what the fisherman caught today.

Bottled some tuna.

Cut up a otaru for dinner tonight.

Lost One

No parking at pier due to film shoot. But we still go!

Jon kam joined me and took position.

Got an otaru then nice Ono, about 40#.

Reset and took a double strike. One cut lure...

And we lost the other at the boat. Sad day but we gettum next time.

Ahi Slabs

New pair of boots! Cheehoo!

More ahi slabs. Pm me if interested. Limited supply.

Fried nabeta from Jaime and Ryan. So Ono!

Land Crew

Big mahalo to Ryan and Jaime from Makata lures for letting us borrow their cooler to hold the ahis. 

Tuna Tim came by to help cut fish steaks! If anyone interested let me know cause it's going out fast!

Kaboom!

You gotta put your time in the water if you want to catch fish! Simply put sitting on the couch won't cut it. 

Al is hard core crew and is amazing and awesome friend to see in action. A few stretches after working all night and we jam!

Put out our favorite team players in the line up and kaboom!

Both of us was beat and sore after this one.

Solid fish!

Reset our lines and kaboom again! What another one? Our arms were beat by now.

What an amazing day! Thanks to Al and our land crew for all their help behind the scenes. If it wasn't for them we be bolo head coming in. by the way if anyone looking for fresh ahi hit me up. 

Surf day

South swell with no one around, why? Because no parking! Got a double session in today!

Took a nap and got a few more.

Even got to see Hokulea come home.

Lotsa people here maybe 50,000.

Beast mode

This ahi season has been awesome so far! If the fish are around you gotta go! Luckily the Red Sea boat can handle and so can my crew. Today Al was solid as a rock with a good 2 hours of sleep the night before.

Then in the blind a beast pulls down the portrigger and begins to spool the 130 reel. 45 minutes later we finally land it.

Then another blind strike!

We end up with 3 fish for a nice haul. Today was a special day as our aunty Liz who passed away a few years ago was her birthday today and we were blessed to catch our biggest ahi to date. 210 lbs gill and gutted. Thanks to our land crew, 2 old crows, cat and James for all their help.

Fever rising

Check my temperature and had a little fever. 

Rigged up the doo doo boy!

And we got one!

Great day fishing with kamu and chris!

Tako experiment

Teaching my nephew to 3-prong! We going soon.

White man, I mean black dogs can jump! Kapua is awesome!

I always wondered if we can troll tako. Tomorrow we will find out. Stay tuned!

Fishing 101

Headed back out to look for dinner with Al and Brent. Step 1: set lines!

Step 2: look for birds.

Step 3: find rubbish

Step 4: catch fish

Step 5: eat fish 

Marking lines

Some fisherman count the amount of seconds when letting out their lines. Others guess the distance. For me I like to know exactly where my lures are located so I mark my lines. Hope this helps us catch more fish consistently.
