Poke Bowl Dreamin’

I went 70 miles offshore of Tofino, BC. The water on the beautiful west coast I get to call home started off as a greenish dark colour, and changed to a bright crystal clear dark blue the farther offshore we went. It was pure magic. Fishing for tuna is a bit different than jigging for halibut or fishing for salmon. When tuna bite, it’s seven rods down, adrenaline kicks in, and nothing else matters in the world but getting those fish to the boat. It was a magical day off shore fishing, playing with sharks, watching epic whales and a potential swordfish in the company of an epic crew.

A massive wall of salmon right in front of me made my heart flicker and butterflies enter my belly. I tried my best to remain calm as a strong breath hold is tied with the state of being you’re in. If I were to get too excited, I’d need to exit that incredibly beautiful moment sooner.

The Tofino West Coast Freediving Dream

“As I hit the surface, fish on spear, I hear an uproar of barking. I think to myself, “that can’t be a dog, we are nearly 20 miles away from any land life…it must be an ocean creature.” I scope my surroundings, and 100 meters to my right I see two male sea lions approaching me and my dinner.”
