If there's anyone that's able to accomplish this it's definitely this man here. I bet your heart was pounding when that foamer rolled up right next to you, mine was anyways. I thought you were in FL? Did you move back to Cali or are/were you visiting (excuse my ignorance, I'm off and on visiting this board)? Congrats on accomplishing the old man and the sea challenge with a triple digit bluefin, amazing!

I was excited for sure. We’d been keeping track of them for several days and I was finally able to get out early. First foamer popped up and I went in expecting 50lb class fish and was met with giants. Couldn’t get them to bite and they sunk out after about 15 mins of following them. I called my buddy (in the boat) and he was just launching and found another foamer on the way to my position and I went to meet them. Then we followed them up the coast. I ended up losing 3 and boating the one and they got I think 3 that day and many more the days leading up and after.
Im in California now. I was in Japan after Florida and now here again.

Hahah, yeah I bet it was more then that.. I'm still amazed you went so far and was able to stick a good fish. Did you launch out of LJ or trailer it to a launch ramp?

No trailer, just put it in the bed of the truck.


I should have taken all my shit talking and whining and edited them all in. I’m sure it would have been entertaining hearing me yell at a fish to just die already and to stop diving. Lol

Here’s one with a full grown woman. She’s 5’4” , honestly could have spent a little more time growing
buddy on the left is 6’5” and I’m 6’7” . We’ve got a couple fish that dwarf us but not many.
