When I lived in California, I spent a lot of time
fishing in the ocean. In the summer I liked to fish offshore from
San Diego for fish such as bluefin tuna, yellowfin tuna, yellowtail,
and so on.

Bluefin tuna, 45 pounds,
taken aboard the Sun Rise from San Diego.

Halibut, 28 and 12 lbs.,
taken aboard the Aquarius from Port Hueneme.

The rest of the year I fished locally for halibut, bass, barracuda,
and rockfish. It’s actually more challenging than fishing offshore
for tuna, though most of the time it’s not as exciting. But
as a friend once told me, “If all you want to fish for
are the glamour fish, you might as well take up golf for nine
months of the year.”
I don’t play golf.
