Thank goodness! Fate finally smiled upon Capt. Sims and his hearty group of anglers in the form of very good action on twenty five to forty pound yellowtail in flat calm coastal region. Couple the excellent fishing with a relaxing finish in the calm lee of the big island and the day was completed in fine style. To top it off, it sounds like the weather just may relent for the ride home, possibly allowing for a final few hours in the morning to snag a few lunch fish, or perhaps even a few for the steamer. Regardless, the major fishing for the voyage is done and thankfully they ended on a good note. I will give a final report following tomorrow's action as well as arrival details for Royal Star on Saturday.
