FIRST DAY OF ACTION (050112)!!! Hello Royal Polaris Family, We reached our initial destination at 5:02 am and promptly made bait and scored a couple fish over 200lbs. The day was full of action with 51 Wahoo and 59 tuna including 5 over 200lbs. The crew did it's typical fantastic job sorting through our first day trouble. Tuna bit into the dark and put on a great show into the night. After dark, Anthony and Jim treated the group to a roast pig, Poki, salmon and fried rice, truly a great way to end a great day... Now for the entertaining part of the report. Many of you may not know this but Frank likes to run the Nakaki/Sooge trip but unfortunately could not make it this year due to his son Tony graduating (at the top of his class) from Law School. How Tony got so much intelligence from a gene pool with half the DNA coming from Frank is truly a mystery to me. We all wish Tony congratulations... Frank may not be with us in person but is with us in spirit and has sent his evil twin (Little Frank) to keep an eye on the crew to ensure the charter is run to "LoPreste" standards. Little Frank has been seen in some inconspicuous places keeping an eye out and reporting back to Big Frank. We have captured a couple of his hiding spots and will send photos daily of his antics... A few stats: Personal Bests: Cliff Wright, Ted Roper, Rick Tyrer, Pete Lorman 200lbers: Warren Hamachi 208, Marc Calder 225, Bill Boulder 216, Clyde Smith 228, Mike Ashford 243 So with that note, we will keep you posted on our daily events. The R/p crew. "BeNt RoDs 4 LiFe"
