Royal Star

A brief respite on the run south as unmistakable sign of yellowtail forced a
stop to fatten up the larder. Of course a little fun was part of the objective
and was accomplished in short order as eager 15 - 22 pound yellows swarmed the

cannot be ignored. Such was the case today. And such will always be the case
with a fisherman at the helm. It is simply impossible to drive by with any time
to spare. And, even if there isn't time to spare, the call must still be
answered.

nabbing this and several other "beach class" yellows in the process. The journey
continues.

Though this was not an angler that fished aboard Royal Star the circumstance does call for some broad reflection; we all have much at stake here. I'm not going to get on a soap box and preach morality, we all have our share of transgressions...... Read More
