Royal Star Fish Report

Royal Star

It looks like the one and one half day departing tonight for tomorrow's fishing will be a relaxing, ultra limited load adventure with only fifteen or sixteen anglers presently on the roster. This voyage will also feature Bill Roecker and his assistant Paul who will be filming extensively for their next production video due out at the end of this summer. This is a great opportunity for anglers to fish with Bill and be part of a professional fishing video production that will be marketed worldwide. Most importantly, yesterday's action on the water was headed up by catches of 30 - 60 albacore in several different zones stretching from 55 - 130 miles. Good action on 5 - 15# kelp paddy yellowtail complimented the albacore catches and a handful of finicky bluefin joined the party as well. Nothing I heard qualified as wide open but the weather was good and the action was decent. If one is out there on a ninety five footer with only fifteen or sixteen anglers the prospect is especially appealing. Wednesday's offshore weather forecast looks good with light winds and small seas promising a comfortable ride and good fishing visibility.

Give us a call if you can make it and have a great day!

As the sun came up in the morning we were in beautiful flat calm, bait filled,clean water, knowing that a great day of fishing awaited us. It took us until around 10 in the morning to get things located and when we did the bluefin acted like bluefin. Meaning that the visual show above the surface was well worth the ticket price and even though we were hitting spot after spot, it took the perfect presentation to elicit a strike....... Read More
