Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!  We have so much to be thankful for this year.  Our family, friends and fellow brothers and sisters who have been by our side through thick and thin.  Weather the seas are calm or rough in our lives we have been blessed with good people.

There is no place like home!  We set out for some last minute shopping and got lucky with this beautiful sunrise.  Red Sea!

And load of mahi mahi for our big party!  Have a great turkey day!

UH Football

First UH bows game for me all season.  Got to watch it with our family and Akule Joe.  Mean kine grinds!

Akule Joe going to eat this lobster one day soon!  Stoked UH won their game, it was a close one and down to the wire.  Holidays are upon us already, time to go fishing soon to get sashimi.

Dude PerfecT!

Check out the fun and creativity of the Shelter Lodge Staff! Dude PerfecT!

Shelter Lodge Banquet

Had a great dinner banquet for our trip to Shelter Lodge put on by Alaska Reel Adventures.  Ono kine grinds.

Great event and Kenji, Richard and Jackie Yamada put on a fun program.  

Bug Dive

Been watching weather to do some lobster diving for HSDTV.  Finally saw the window and went over to the neighbor islands on a whim.  

Got some action early and the game was on!

Started catching menpachi for a break then back in for more bugs.

Mahalo's to my friends from the Big Island for a great dive!

So peaceful except this is Cochi frog heaven!

Fishing & Filming

Did a little bottom fishing with Takahashi san the other day.  He got this nice nabeta which he is going to eat and enjoy!  

Guys also got some hole which didn't last too long.

We eat everything, even our bait.  Nothing goes to waste in our family.

Great day filming the moniz bros.  Seth and Josh Moniz are super hard core surfers who also love to dive. They are the next generation of Professional surfers and role models for many to follow.

Moniz Brothers

Busy week filming with the Moniz brothers, Seth and Josh.  These boys are the most respectful hard core surfers of the next generation.  We had a great day diving and got to see two big tiger sharks in one hour of our dive.  Stay tuned for more on Hawaii Skin Diver TV!

Shark Surfing

Beware of more sharks on the east side.  Went out this morning to find out that Tony was already there watching us.  Thank God he already had breakfast.   Whew!

Tony the Tiger

Surf has been firing again today and everywhere got fun waves.  Tony the tiger shark paid a visit to the east side also and luckily no surfers were out here.   Just 20 ft from shore.  More light winds and swells to come!  I love winter!
