Royal Star Fish Report

5-20-2004
Royal Star

Not the banner finale we were hoping for but a nice day nonetheless. Bruce started us off again this morning with a 210 which was followed by a slow scratch the rest of the day for a total of 12 fish from 110-180. We also had 20 wahoo mixed in which added excitement to the day.

We are presently traveling into the cape in decent weather and should arrive early on the 23rd.

Tim and I have decided to make this trip a ride down/ride back 16 day next year which will give us the same amount of fishing time at the bank, and the option of trying for bluefin on the way home. With the islands not an option, this trip makes a lot more sense.

The overall grade of fish this trip was incredible with 18 over 200 and 32 from 170-197. We didn't rack up the big numbers but that is what these long trips are all about, the quest for trophy yellowfin.



Our final shot shows Ken Wang who has taken many big fish with me over the years with a 207.
