Jordan was seen puffing on a cigar on his $8 million super yacht which is called Catch 23.

The 61-year-old was pictured wearing dark clothes and a hat.

Jordan was joined by his crew on board while they participated in the White Marlin Open in Ocean City, Maryland.

The competition started on Tuesday and ended on Friday, August 9.

And it’s been revealed that Jordan’s squad caught the heaviest Mahi Mahi during the tournament thus far.

The six-time NBA champion’s boat is listed as having caught a mahi weighing 32.5 pounds.

It has been revealed by delmarvanow.com that Jordan made the catch with only 45 minutes left on the second day of the event.

The winning team will receive $8 million.

Unfortunately for Jordan, Field is listed as the successful angler, as of Wednesday.

Fortunately for MJ, win or lose, he still has an estimated worth of over $3 billion.

Before his Maryland experience, Jordan has been having plenty of fun with his wife, Prieto.

They were spotted enjoying a getaway in Ibiza with the NBA Hall of Famer’s mother Deloris, brothers Jamers Jr. and Larry, and his sister Roslyn.

Jordan and his family then traveled to Italy during the trip before returning to the U.S.
