Royal Star Fish Report

1-2-2008
Royal Star

It started out slow today with a few short stops that produced 8 fish from 30-90lbs.We did pick off a 220 out of a long drift midday but other than that, it wasn't looking very good for that finish up with a bang stuff. At 1600 we shut down on a subtle mark where we've been seeing a few bigger fish throughout the day and settled in for a complete hail mary, hoping they find us with a mere two hours left to fish. After 30 minutes we hooked a giant that weighed in at a whopping 348. As it got closer to dark we were treated to quite a show of 200-300lbers blowing out all around us which coincided with an epic sundown bite. When the dust settled we had 7 from 204-267 and a handful of 110lbers laying on the deck, needless to say an incredible way to finish the trip. We are presently traveling up in beautiful weather and hope to be in by 0800 on the 5th.

Following is a list of anglers who boated fish over 200:

Dave Hall - 348
Doug Luginbuhl - 265, 222

Happy new year to all. Nice steady action throughout the day for 70 tuna, half of which were 15-30lbs with the other half going 50-90. We did have a couple of fish in the 130-140lb range so hopefully they're moving in. The weather is grease calm, it almost feels as if we're tied to the dock. We are going to stay here tonight and hopefully finish up with a bang....... Read More
