Southbound for seven on the annual Izorline sponsored run. A seasoned group of Royal Star veterans with a handful of anglers new to our team are well prepared for a strong voyage ahead. A fine load of bait, excellent weather setting up as hurricane Genevieve points west well outside of our working zone, a fine list of starting options, and most importantly a fantastic group ready to enjoy an epic fishing vacation packed with memories and adventure. We'll keep all posted in the daily narrative as the trip unfolds.
Enjoy today's image pulled from a couple of trips prior featuring lady anglers Tanya Kulpaca and Karen Long with a pair of beautiful bluefin taken on the knife jigs at the midnight hour.
