Royal Star Fish Report

10-18-2009
Royal Star

We're making progress here adding quality yellowfin tuna, wahoo, and yellowtail one at a time that added up to respectable score by day's end. It is no barn burner; anglers really have to put their time in and focus to get an opportunity at one of these bigger yellowfin, but everyone who worked at it was rewarded. Along with the fishing, the big bonus is the continuing flat calm weather that has a way of making just about any day of fishing on the high seas an enjoyable occasion.

Thus far we are satisfied, but I admit that the inherent fisherman's lust for the extraordinary has yet to be quelled. That opportunity where everyone is simultaneously in action; that scenario when everyone is huffing and puffing thriving on pure adrenaline, is still ahead of us somewhere during this voyage. We hope sooner than later. More than anyone the boys are itching for wide open action to keep our skills honed and demonstrate our incredible ability in the heat of battle. No complaints however. We are biding our time recognizing that the cup is presently more than half full. We aim to keep it that way.

For our hurricane update I again offer confidence to those with friends and family on board. We are well beyond the effects of hurricane Rick presently fishing in the best possible area to avoid the storm. We are watching it close planning an eventual northerly move to remain well ahead of the tempest. Photos of the day feature anglers Ken Baima with Captain Brian Sims and Dan Green with Isaac and Gregg. These photos are a fantastic example of the fine quality yellowfin tuna anglers are presently targeting at Alijos.

Finally, a call out to Dennis from Dave Povey who is having a fantastic time rounding out his day with 98# yellowfin tuna, a couple of yellowtail, and a nice wahoo. All is well and we are ready to give it our best effort again tomorrow.
