Royal Star Fish Report

Royal Star

It was a great morning of angling on 20-35lb yellowfin in balmy flat calm weather. Many of our stops started on spots of bait with whales, seals, porpoise, and hundreds of birds in addition to the tuna cutting through the middle of it all, a true Blue Planet experience. We were satiated on this grade fish for now by early afternoon and opted to change locations in the hopes of finding some bigger fish.

We were successful in the finding but not in the hooking of bigger tuna this afternoon with one 65lber landed in spite of a couple good showings on 60-150lb fish. We did hook one fish at sundown that was in the 150lb range but unfortunately it chewed off after a long battle. Still it was a very encouraging sign prompting us to start here tomorrow with high hopes of kicking off our '08' big tuna season.
