Kevin Graetz leverages nearly two decades of experience as a venture capitalist and private equity investor as a consultant and silicon valley investor. A graduate of Ohio Wesleyan University, Kevin Graetz has successfully raised more than a billion dollars for investments in companies that ranged from early stage startups to late-stage private equity transactions.
In his free time, Mr. Graetz regularly fishes for big game and has caught a 600 pound Marlin in addition to big eye tuna and yellowfin tuna. Yellowfin tuna are a large, torpedo shaped fish that can often be found close to the surface of tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide. The fish, which grow as large as 400 pounds, can be identified by their bright yellow dorsal fin and metallic blue color on the back.
Catching a yellowfin tuna can be challenging. To increase the odds, sports anglers recommend dropping lures deeper where the fish spend most of their time feeding. In addition, putting more distance between the fishing boat and the lure can increase the likelihood of a bite. Other recommended tips include “chumming,” dropping large amounts of baitfish in order to lure yellowfin close to the boat, and kite fishing, which involves pulling along live bait suspended by an airborne kite behind the boat.
