A few days post arrival we continue to enjoy the fruits of the voyage with family and friends. Exceptional, Royal Star quality fresh from the RSW tanks is a testament to the care and attention our engineers and crew dedicate to every fish landed. The end product, even after twelve full days immersed in pure, 30 degree Fahrenheit seawater - no salt added, was stunning in color, texture, flavor. The unmatched quality of our product is a huge point of pride that the boys fervently pursue. Signature Royal Star. 

Many thanks to our good friend, long time Royal Star angler, and now Calstar owner Chris Yamada for assembling an incredible group of like minded anglers intent upon making the most  of their voyage. Many a good time were had during the ten fishing days that featured incredible variety in scenery, species, and quality. Our sincere gratitude to all participants. We look forward to the opportunity to fish with you again.

A few days shoreside will see us tending to a few odds and ends but mainly enjoying a little downtime among family and friends. It is our sincere hope that you all appreciate the holiday season among those dear to you. At Royal Star we are well aware of the incredible blessings bestowed upon us. High among those blessings is our clientele whom we cherish and appreciate. We are well aware that anglers have plenty of choices in the fishing world to spend their invaluable time and hard earned resources. We are sincerely grateful for the loyalty and support so many Royal Star anglers have shown throughout the years.

From the entire Royal Star team we wish you all a Merry Christmas, fulfilling holiday season, and a prosperous, healthy 2026. Thank you!

Tim Ekstrom, Randy Toussaint, Brian Sims, Tracy Toussaint, Roy Rose and our second to none Royal Star crew!
