San Diego BS Thread.

That's right I think I remember you saying you did that, I got a bunch of equipment from when Aqua Lung moved from their place on Melrose and some of it is testing equip and random parts from full face gear, you probably know what it is better than I do, I never used underwater comms.

 

Well today I am playing with a 3rd gen rear main seal leak, holy crap I didn't realize the amount of stuff that needed to come off to get the trans/transfer case removed from the engine, had to pull the entire front 2/3rds of the exhaust system including the exhaust manifolds, starter (to access the torque converter bolts) and everything else connected to the trans..

 

That does not look like fun...

 

You are correct, and to make it even worse I just got finished installing long tube JBA headers into a Tundra, talk about tight!!

Im ready for some lighter work like some suspension lifts or somethin, haha..

Hope all is well with you, hows everything going bud?

 

Going pretty good. Still have fatigue and memory issues. tell the guy with the truck bed camper I forgot their names I got a big Tuna 216lbs

Had a great time at octillo wells with you all

 

Wow!!! Nice catch!! I’m jealous, that’s my favorite food on the planet and you have a good supply, I’d be eating sushi for a year.
And yeah we all had a blast out there, we will do it again once it cools down..

 

I also got a 65lb and a 55lb... so I have quite a bit of bft in the freezer...

 

Even with all the right equipment!

 

Recently went down to the docks by Seaport Village on a Saturday morning. Got 4lbs. of Albacore for $20. Gave 2lbs. to a buddy.
Cut it up into small steaks, soaked it in milk....wife wipped up a concoction to marinate it in (drained the milk of course) and had it
on the bbq that night. Turned out great!

 

Wow, Nice tuna. Were you on a sport boat or private? Local or way down south?

 

The Tomahawk out of Fishermans Landing

 

Nice catch! gotta brine and smoke some of that, best recipe ever right here

Ok I am officially changing the thread name to "Tuna Talk"!
But really. that is a badass catch, last 2 times I went out on a sport boat I got Skunked for a total of about $500 for a deep sea boatride with a line tangling competition.

 

If your freezer is too full I am totally willing to help "store" some of that stuff for ya! Super stoked for ya, you definitely deserve it my friend.

 

I might make a delivery happen for you...

 

Sounds like open party boat . . . If you took a multi-day trip south, you would likely get a different result. Though the difference is also $$$$.

Unfortunately, my ocean fishing days are over.

 

tell me more, me and the gf unit have talked more than once about finding some decent spots to pick up fresh fish from. we both work alot, therefore our habits are a little crappy and we wanna improve our diets.

i commonly work saturdays starting at 1030, how early is this place you mentioned open?

 

Opens at 9:00am I believe. North end of Seaport Village before Midway Museum. There are a couple of busy parking lots just before you enter Seaport Village itself. Bring a cooler to transport
the fish you might purchase-they had ice available. Nice people, your lady friend could feel comfortable going there on her own or calling you when she's there. A variety of fish in available, some sells out quick like the Halibut ($20 a pound?) It looks like if there is an abundance of one type or more of fish the price is cheaper?

 

I'd be more than happy to make a nice donation for the trouble.
I can't seem to catch any myself lately, and they aren't close enough to the shore for SCUBA while shore diving unfortunately, haha!

 

so, in this building circled in red? dont think ive ever been to this area, and only been to the midway itself once =D
