Florida life.


Lizards and crazy looking spiders. 

The Lizard was in a mini ramps coping, and that spider built a web for us to walk through every morning, right outside the front door.

Fishing in the Gulf Stream.


Start of my morning on Saturday. Blake, Austin, and I got to go out fishing on Austin's Dad's boat.
It was sick for sure. I had never gone fishing like that, in about 1,200ft of water, 15 miles off shore, we were using top water baits catching these dolphin fish. 




They're a cool fish. Really awesome when they jet through the water flashing their colors. Bright green in the deep blue. 

Austin with one of his. This is a tiny guy. 
I was informed that a dolphin grows up to 40lbs the first four months of it's life. 




Our catch. 




That is not a bloody cooler. 















Dinner. 
Fish Tacos. 


Thanks to Erik and Austin for taking me out on the boat!

After last weeks swell with Blake, it was straight to the grind with the photos. One landed here.

Just Swimming.


I got to dive around in the big blue yesterday... So amazing. 
The waves have been pretty pathetic, so I'm sticking to other ocean activities for now. 

My friend Chelsea got a new water housing and we are going to have a bit more fun with it I think..

A few shots from past swell, Florida.



A pretty good idea of this past swell. It all got interesting at the ferry. 

On to islands and up the coast, chasing waves. 
We found a couple. 






I wish i knew who this is... any help? I have a sequence worth looking at. 




Blake kickin it on what I think could be compared to Trestles.
 No, not wave wise, but, a good chill spot. 






get gnarly. 












poppin back ones all day. 







The scene was enough for me. Mushy close outs didn't matter. 





Blake found out a good barrel. I was caught off guard... 




The remainder. 



If this was regular, it would have been better than it's best. 




Awesome. 


The sunsets were insane. I'd go back for one any day. 




   

      A last glimpse at something kinda frustrating.
 A swell left us for dead in the water. 

It came in as a macking close out. 
Ow.

Beach Side on the East side.


East Coast. It beautiful here. I love the rain, missed that a lot. 

Amped to see some storms come in while I'm here on the east side. It's looking like it could really turn out to be an active fall.
