This morning in Honolulu the temperature was the same as when I was shooting Mt. Fuji with @keithueharaphotography back in December. Low 60’s.
All clear on Oahu to start fishing again. After the big rains I avoid beaches near rivers as the water is brown and all the debris is near shore and on the beach. This is one of my moi rigs. Simple but effective. Stay safe out there.
A taste of Korea today in Honolulu. Can you taste it?
5 minutes of running up and down the beach fighting this fish that hit my moi set up. Came in at 3-1/2 pounds. Picked up 2 nice moi but this was the most fun of the night.
Fresh fish for the New Year. Looking forward to lots of action in 2025. Testing out the new Daiwa reel.
Oama thief! Every time I cast out a bait this guy was trying to take my oama. Decided to give him one.
Happy Holidays from Japan. I filmed this a year ago in Nagoya. This is the best light show I have visited so far. I just booked my next trip to see the small towns in snow country of northern Japan. Enjoy the show.
Mahalo to @makanahawaiiincentives for inviting me to enjoy the Auana show with them last night. A must see show for locals and visitors.
This is what a day in Japan would be like with @barefootadventureshi . Spending the day on Lake Kawaguchi taking photos of snow capped Mount Fuji. Ending the day with soft serve ice cream before soaking in the best onsen. 10 years ago I was here and I could barely walk due to a car accident that totaled my 4Runner. I soaked in the onsen and next day my back pain was gone and I was able to walk without discomfort. Looking forward to my next trip in a few months so I can soak while it is snowing.
I have been to the Arizona Memorial dozens of times with our guests but my most memorable visit was in 2021 when I was able to visit alone. I was allowed to spend 1 hour at the memorial alone and film. It looks and feels so different without the crowds. Never forget December 7, 1941.
My favorite spot for sunset photography in the middle of Tokyo Bay. Great shopping and dining at this rest stop and beautiful sunsets with the silhouette of Mount Fuji in the distance.
Best Black Friday shopping weekend ever. 4 cities, 3 days and 4 different tackle shops. 30% savings with exchange rate, 10% off with Black Friday savings and another 10% off with tax free purchases. Basically the more you buy the more you save. You lose money if you decide not to buy that new 8000 reel. I will film the unpacking so you can see all the savings. A message from your Barefoot Financial Planner. Buy more gear in Japan to save more at home.
