First on is going under the bridge during the massive fires that blocked out the sun.
The second is back in the day surfing maverick on my boogie board.

Looked at the PAPA bouy, earlier was 41 ft. at 14 seconds that's 24 hour swell travel time away from San Francisco.

Thanks chopper glad you got done fish.
Hi Franco, no app saw the red tide with my own eyes

I just used Zinka for the first time on a week of surfing in Nicaragua (about 30 hours in the water), did not get burned. Best I have ever used.

I’ll take it

Was at a house looking at the roof yesterday and was given a old tackle box full of old fishing gear in it. Took it home and was surprised what was inside. Looks like it belongs in a museum, old lures line, and miscellaneous gear, but to my surprise there were two pristine old Mitchell 300 reals with extra spools. Not sure what to do with all of it but it is cool just going through all of the old stuff.

Right on Jim, what a blessing to have a hobby to be so passionate about, that allows us to forget about the cares of the world and be at peace if only for a little while. Life can be tough at times and we would not cope so well if we did not have our releases, and good wives that let us go out and be adventurous. Congrats on your year of sobriety what an accomplishment, I still have my one year chip from 30 years ago and enjoying life. Thanks for the video, reminds me how much I miss diving, it has been a while, time to get my Lunds back in shape. Thanks for the inspiration.
