Thanks Tattuna - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Jim Sammons LJKF · 05-30-2013, 09:56 AM

I have been telling Charles for some time I was going to have him do a tattoo for me but just never got around to it and hadn't come up with one I really wanted. In talking with my friend, and artist, Jackie Endlich we came up with some design ideas and she drew me up a nice concept drawing.
I shot it over to Charles and he tweaked it some to make for a better tattoo.
Yesterday I went up to see Charles at Shogun tattoo and got the work done, and also shot it for a segment of my show.

I couldn't be happier with how it came out. If any of you have thought of getting a tattoo, Charles is the man and his fish tats are the best.

Were you shooting for your show on Tuesday? I think I saw you at LJ with a camera man, spilled the PA on my way in.

Jim Sammons LJKF · 05-30-2013, 01:16 PM

Yeah we were there just shooting some surf stuff and an interview with a sponsor from Fish Alerts.

If you want a great tattoo...Tattuna IS the man.
Wife and I recently got matching ink from Charles.
His work is fantastic. More to come.

Hey Thanks Jim! That was a fun piece. I had a fun time hangin out with you and Will. I think we first talked about the tattoo like 10 years ago, glad ya finally made it over.

PE.rider · 05-30-2013, 05:13 PM

Nice ink.

Hmmm. Suddenly, I have a hankering for Fried Calamari with spicy marinara sauce.
