Royal Star Fish Report

5-8-2008
Royal Star

You've probably all noticed a trend in these reports describing the majority of anglers featured as Royal Star veterans and friends. Especially in the case of the Revillagigedo tagging voyages, this is true for the main reason that I have been promoting in these reports from their beginning. The highly experienced veterans have embraced the Revillagigedo tagging voyages because of the unmatched fishing potential we have encountered now four voyages running. For the finest giant yellowfin tuna fishing one can imagine, in the most beautiful setting available, these anglers are ecstatic to have legal access to this legendary fishery.
No angler demonstrates this motive better than our good friend and superior angler Warren Sakamoto who has likely shared the Royal Star deck with many of you over the past fifteen years. Warren is one of those anglers who always wears a smile and always seems to have a fish on the end of whatever line he is soaking. This voyage was no exception as Warren added tremendous effort to the deployment of electronic and conventional tags. Thanks for sharing all the good times with us Warren and congratulations on the one deuce and at least half a dozen "on the fence" one ninety fives.

Ultimately I believe Ron ended up with three over two hundred with the...... Read More

Bill and I met on board Royal Star in 1993, struck up a strong, loyal friendship, and over the next few years developed the ideas that led to the first website, daily reports, and daily photos maintained by a San Diego Long Range vessel. Bill's company, Corporate Network Professionals Inc. has...... Read More
