Big Jim’s 2017

This time last year I could barely walk and was just starting the painful process of PT to recover from a torn quadriceps tendon in my left knee… 

While I’m still not 100% I am stoked that I have been able to get out diving both off kayak and from shore this year, and managed to bring home some pretty nice fish to feed my family and friends…. 

Below is a quick vid of some of my favorite times out in the ocean this year, and a few pics of the fish shown in the vid…. 

Fish shown include Lings up to 38 inches, Reds to 23.5, Cabs to 23.5, Olives, Blues, Blacks, Grassies, California Sheephead to 28+ inches, multiple Monterey County Halibuts, Humboldt County Abalone to 9.5 inches, and some pretty BatRays and Leopard Sharks and Wolf Eels that I didn’t shoot of course.

Special thanks to my wife and daughters for giving me the time to go play in the water, my dive buddies for putting up with my early starts, and all the family and friends that helped me eat all the yummy fishies.

: )

Thanks for looking!!

Sincerely,

Jim
