CARTER CONTINUING TO BE ON FIRE

Ashbury rep is some sort of deep sea fishing saint. He's been killing it.

Kiss the floor.

Carter's killer.

HERO CISZEK

Austin Smith texted me this photo. Apparently this huge salmon was trying to eat Austin and Curtis Ciszek saved Austin's life. You should hear the story from them, it's nuts.

Killa Carter

We might be seeing more of Carter on here. Big bad white sea bass.

JAKE OE AND JOE SEXTON BASS WASSUP

NEIL: STILL GO IT

I randomly found this photo of Neil Dacosta that he sent me a while ago. Killing it. I think we're gonna start fishing again, the weather is better and Banes is gonna be home soon.

AUSTRALIA: CONQUERED

 

We have won over Australia! My Aussie boy Marc Baker (on the right) threw up BW at a show last night, unprompted. My roomie Wiley Steelo got his back.

NEIR

Neil Dacosta has been getting after it while in New Jersey, I haven't been. But we'll be back at it soon. Neil had another photo, but I lost it somehow. He's killing it anyway.

PASADENA FLEA MARKET FIND

I bought this pike at the Pasadena flea market today. Thank you.

ONE UPPING ME

I don't know these guys, but my homey Cody Rosenthal does. Makes me rethink my point and shoot tactics. I might be getting an underwater camera?

SEQUOIA 10'

Sequoia keeping you in your place.

Some sort of jay, that was blue.

Be careful.

Blake crossing the stream.

Mike crossing the stream...

Lance vs. Blake.

Mathew jumping the gap.

This little guy didn't want to be photographed.

Neither did Mike's first fish.

Here we have Mike modeling his lunker. Can you see it behind his hands?

Double gainer with a twist.

Mi padre's first fish.

Fighting the current.

The sixties.

Hiking.

Blake trying to live.

Don't even breath around Mike, or he'll try to catch you.

Making our way down to the stream.

Little fish trying to make it's way up stream. All the fish are natural here, they stock it later on in the summer. So they were all relatively humble in size.

I cropped this picture so you couldn't see the smudge on my lens.

Mike with an alligator lizard.

Mathew, Blake, and Malfoy checking it out.

Thanks sun.

Caterpillarsville.

New spot.

Lone ant hoisting this dead stinker up the wall.

Backup.

At this spot we were catching Golden Trout. I lost my jig right away, so I had to catch big ants, flies, and whatever else I could catch for bait.

My Uncle Lance fishing with ladybugs.

Mike caught this huge thing too.

I caught this bad boy on a bumble bee that I straight swatted out of the sky.

What am I sticking my arm that deep in the mud for?

Can you tell what it is?

How about now? My shoe.

After my shoe was done for, I just watched.

Oh, happy days are here.

Bear sighting on our way out.

Drive by Sequoia tree.

Bon Voyage.

YOUTUBE FOR NOW

 

We've been lagging on fishing lately. Real life is getting in the way. But we're heading to Sequoia tomorrow.

JUNE SHOWS ME UP

While in Carlsbad this weekend, I went shore fishing in some bay with Joe Carlino and June Bhongjan, snowboarding's newest power couple.

Sunsetting fishin.

June caught this mini calico bass.

And she had to put the worm on Joe's hook.

By the time she caught this sand bass, I started to feel like she was disrespecting me.

But I still had to be the one to take the fish of the hook for her.

For the record, Joe and I got skunked. Here is Brandon Phillips who showed up later to cross that pipe across the water on a dare from Joe.

This is what I look like getting skunked.
