Royal Star Fish Report

2-16-2010
Royal Star

Just what the doctor ordered today with consistent action on 90 - 100# class yellowfin tuna keeping anglers engaged and motivated from just after daylight through just after dark. As fortuitious is the repreive granted by the local "grinners" that made their presence known, but only occasionally taxed our efforts. Best of all, and likely the key to our success on the outside, are flat calm seas and a variable, gentle breeze that made for heavenly fishing conditions, perfect temperatures throughout the day, and a festive atmosphere all around. Standout yellowfin of the day were in the 150 pound class though we did have at least one opportunity at a tuna in the "cow" category that we could not make good on. No one is complaining about steady action on one hundred pound class tuna however. All anglers are at the rail, fully engaged in the effort, and ecstatic to be pulling for all they are worth on these spirited opponents.

So, with ninety nine of these beauties captured, tagged, and released in the name of science today, we are highly motivated by the potential for more tomorrow and beyond. Needless to say we have no plans to relocate as this island presently offers everything an angler could hope for and then some; the some refering to giants that I am certain are lurking around here somewhere.

For our day's photo I pulled a shot from a few days back featuring angler Somkit Anukulauthaiwong doing some business at Roca Partida. Demonstrating the perfect form all the seven guy's from Thailand are presenting, Somkit, or "Jew" as we know him, put his skill to good use today on numerous one hundred pound class yellowfin tuna.
Look for more reports of good fishing to follow.
