"Our weather today was just beautiful," said the report from Royal Polaris November 3, "with flat seas, clear skies, sunny and warm. It was a shorts and tees day. The weather was not the only thing that was hot. We had an epic day, with limit style fishing on Yellowtail and Yellowfin tuna.

"The Yellowfin started biting around 10:30, and didn't stop until 15:00 hours. Most of the Yellowfin were in the 18 to 25-pound range, with some smaller ones in the 12 to 15-pound category. This was one of the best single day catches of Yellowfin this season. We caught a handful of Grouper, Pargo, and one Dorado. Our passengers are just beat after todays workout. We had an excellent Yellowtail dinner tonight, prepared by Brett Wilkinson. It was one of the best Yellowtail dinners we have had on the R/P. We will continue to move south, trying our luck at Wahoo tomorrow, then may be make a tank or two of Mackerel tomorrow night."
