Welcome to my Blog! This blog is an account of my personal adventures of roaming places that are within a days drive of the Bay Area. Hi, my names Tony. I love the outdoors, and I take any and every opportunity I can get to go out and discover new places! I enjoy fishing, music, technical car stuff, and enjoying my adventures with my beautiful girlfriend Kate! This site is best viewed at 1024x768!
Kate and I went to Capitola today. We parked up on the hill and walked down to fish off the pier for awhile. We didn't catch any fish but it was a nice day! We ended up getting crowded by a group of 6 people who decided to fish right on top of us, it was annoying so we left.
I've NEVER seen anything like this. The video says its a European fishing pole LOL. Perhaps some of you have seen these and I'm the last one to know about it, but I figured it would be my video for today! I can't imagine hanging a pole above the water with a 48 ft fishing pole! That's incredible.
Also, my intention when I made this blog was to share MY fun experiences with the outdoors in the form of videos, or literature. I put videos up frequently because these are the things that interest me. I will write more personal experiences as they happen, I.E around evening time come Sunday... During the week I'll likely stick to posting interesting videos :) Stay tuned because I plan on adding individual pages for each different hobby that I have (Fishing, Mining, Piano, Car stuff)
This is a video of a fish that was caught last Wednesday off the coast of Hokkaido, a Japanese Island. It was a RECORD Bluefin Tuna weighing in at 754 pounds! What's amazing to me is that the Previous record was a 445 pound Bluefin! Amazing! BTW it sold for roughly $396,000 US dollars, 32.49 million yen!
This guy says this is what he found over his lifetime. This guy must have been pretty dedicated, he has gold from all over the world! Inspiring isn't it? We DO live in GOLD country you know, it's there somewhere, why aren't more people trying to go out and find it? I welcome any comments, positive or negative. :)
Check out "Digger" Bob's video I found. He was on a special entitled "Treasure Hunting America". It's about 6 minutes long, but that nugget he finds in the end of the segment is inspiring! This guy really turned me on to buying a metal detector. I'm going to have to do some research on what's the best bang for my buck. Metal detectors can range from $100-$1000, and there's even nicer ones out there that are water proof and can filter certain things that go for like 3-4K$!
I subscribe to this guys Youtube channel. Check out this awesome find of a 4.5 oz gold nugget with a sweet metal detector. This is not me (obviously) in case anyone was wondering...
