Fish Report for 2-16-2012

With little more than a day of travel to report on, a few full resolution photos from the previous adventure will serve the cause today. I sent a couple of these images direct from Royal Star during the Braid 15 day but the full resolution images are definitely worth another look. They do a pretty fair job of depicting the on board atmosphere at the apex of our fishery. This time of the season is definitely "The Show". Everything else we do, every other species of game fish we target, inevitably leads devoted anglers to the moments captured in today's images.
Enjoy the photos of Royal Star veteran's Bruce Helton with a big bruiser coming through the gate, "Freddie" Salgado, at seventy eight years young pulling on what became his 285 on the bow, and Afrikaner Marius Coetzee reefing on his 207 in the early dawn.
Look for more photos and an ETA update tomorrow.

2-15-20122/15/12 A few positive news items to share as Royal Star heads up the line beginning with the conclusion of another successful fourteen day run. It was a struggle for a while as collapsed conditions took some time to straighten out before the fish mercifully started biting, but the old saying "all's well that ends well" sums up the on board setting to perfection. The guys are returning with a big load in the hatch interspersed with a more than respectable...... Read More

02/14/12 Great morning to finish up the trip that started at 0300 with a full speed bite on the salamis. It was hot and heavy until just after daylight when it backed off to a slow pick which is typical down here. A total of 62 went in the hatch, the bulk of which were 50-90 with a handfull of 100-150's and two over 200. We are presently traveling up in good weather looking forward to a few days of rest and relaxation. Tim...... Read More
