"Weather continues to be good," reported Royal Polaris October 6, "with sunny days, clear skies, with 8 to 12 knots of breeze. Our day started out early, with an early morning bite on quality Yellowtail up to 30 pounds. Once the sun came up, the bite was over. We pulled our anchor and headed west. We were in search of Yellowfin tuna. We would have many stops throughout the day, but nothing produced what we were looking for.

"So it was time for the first Bob Sands Crew fish-off. Not like combat fishing, this was totally different. The crew would get a ultra light fishing rod and a spinning reel filled with 10 pound test XXX Izorline. The first round was won by Ben, with Jonathan coming in a close second. The second round was won by Big "D", with Eddie coming in a close second. There was only one tackle failure. Kenny was fighting a 'Baby Giant.' When his rod could not take it any more, Kenny had to hand-line the fish to the boat. It was a fun day fishing on the Royal today."
