There is nothing like a nice relaxing getaway. Kelley and I have just returned from Hawaii. We spent a week in Kauai just relaxing. We did find time for a couple of hikes, but the rest of the time was spent just relaxing on the beautiful beaches and doing a little swimming. The weather was perfect and that island is amazing. I’ve never been to that island before, its really cool, its different than Maui, it’s smaller and less commercialized and really a lot of fun.

I have to say the seared Ahi in Hawaii is second to none. Just about every place we went that had it, I ordered it. It definitely seems to taste even better in Hawaii. I don’t know, it could be my imagination but, I am assuming since we are right near good Tuna fishing that it was really fresh.

This weekend I have the Bass-A-Thon at Angler’s Marine in Anaheim California. It should be a great show, Lucky Craft is bringing their full booth to the show this year and I will help out there with Roy Gray. Lucky Craft will have a few new baits at the show including the “Smasher”, a jointed swimbait and the Pearl Threadfin Shad and Light Hitch colored baits. I will also try to help out on the Ranger Boats side as well.

Speaking of Ranger Boats, I am really excited that next season I am going to be running the Ranger Z-521. This will be the first time I step up from a 20 foot boat to a 21 foot boat.

I do have one fishing trip planned early next week for a new online site. I am not sure where we will be filming but, I know we are filming early next week somewhere here in southern California. I know whichever lake we film on, I will have the New Pearl Threadfin Shad BDS-3 tied on and working for me. The BDS-3 is one of my favorite baits anytime of year but, especially in the fall/early winter time frame with the LV-500 coming in a very close second.
