NEW YORK BLUEFIN TUNA
Thanks for getting me on last minute @lukethefluke59@jack_kelly84 took quite a few strike missions home with a couple really rough days and small or no fish but i got to really feel the potential of the 21 contender handles in allll conditions. Yesterday i was lucky enough to hop on jacks boat the Last day before i ship to the north shore for the season.
we got it done with the stella 20k ( thanks @weitzens ) and a giant class fish around 76”
Now all fired up for what mother pipeline has to offer!!!

Been a wild ride navigating the last couple years. Family friends contracts barrels wins losses and a whole lotta gratitude. I just want to say thank you to this life and to every person that makes it worth living. HAIL MARY.

When we saw the nor’easter on the forecast for New York last week, we thought: what’s @_balaram up to?
Not home.
He flew from JFK to the Canary Islands to surf in the @quemao_class . Scored waves around the event, but his heat was onshore.
So he kept moving.
He saw a swell on the charts headed for Portugal with clean conditions. He made the call. This is the moment he knew he made the right one.
