I don't know if I told this story.
I checked off a bucket list item. I am not dying soon, not that I am aware of, so I plan on checking this bucket list item off the list again.
the best way to describe it is Fishing meets Crossfit. it is brutal. hot, humid. more humid than I have ever experienced. 100 degrees with a wet atmosphere. gross. the guides primary job isn't to help us catch fish. his primary job, as far as I can tell, it to make me drink a bottle of water every 15 minutes. we would drink two cases a day. and barely pee. if and when I did pee, it felt like a victory. a victor-pee!!.
I made a YouTube video, and almost fainted on it. I had to lay down. the baits are heavy and they have a lot of drag in the water. you have to yank on it to make them work seductively. the yanking will get you sweating and huffing and puffing. I wore a HR monitor and when I was fishing it was like a cardio workout. we flew in on a tiny plane and landed in the jungle like we were picking up drugs. haha.
best time of my life.
