New Member:
Adam Huss

I was born in Orange and raised in Long Beach, California. I graduated from Los Alamitos High school in 1998 and then went down to San Diego State for college. After graduating from SDSU I moved back to Long Beach in 2003 and started selling real estate. In 2004, I received my real estate brokers license and have been working full time in real estate ever since. I currently live in Huntington Beach with my wife Megan and daughter Isla (who just turned 5). My passion is the ocean. I love to fish, bodyboard, paddleboard, and snorkel. Any activity that gets me outside I’m into.
Since I was old enough to hold a fishing rod, I have been fishing. My dad, Ken Huss, is very passionate about fishing and I was lucky enough to have him as my dad, which means I got to do a lot of fishing as I grew up. I been fishing with the tuna club ever since he first joined back in 1997. The Kids trip has turned into a tradition with our family, and I always look forward to it. I have also been on a few long-range trips and a few Alaska trip with the club. What a great bunch of guys! It’s an honor to be invited to join the club and I look forward to getting more involved and going on more fishing trips with the club!
- Adam was introduced to the Membership by his dad and longtime Member, Ken Huss.
