http://www.royalpolaris.comHi folks;
Weather was sunny and the seas flat calm. It was absolutely a beautiful day to be on the water.
Our last stop today was one that many of our passengers will remember for a long time. We had free swimming Yellowfin going under the bow and all around the whole boat. There were also hundreds of Sharks. At one point I watched a 175 pound fish jump right over a Shark's back to beat him to the Sardine. For at least one hour we watched these fish in what seemed to be a giant aquarium.
Now the best part is that we did not lose one fish to the Sharks. That's right not one fish today was malled. We had one fish with a bite out of him. How did we do it? Roy Rose has come up with another invention. We are going to keep it a secret for now. It is called the Shark detractor (patent pending).
If you want to see it work, you will just have to book a trip on the Royal Polaris.
We boated 37 fish today, from 75 to 222.4 pounds. Sue Beck had the 222.4 and it was one of the meanest fish I have seen in a long time. It nearly spooled a 50W. Gary Edwards also had a big day with a 188, 175, and a 165 pound Yellowfin tuna.
If you are interested in the Nakaki/Tsujiuchi trip next year it will be a 12 day fly down/fly back once again by Blackwater and YO's Tackle. The R/p crew.
