We departed today on our annual David Lam 7 day voyage. Unfortunately we did not exactly top off on bait at the receivers so we will be targeting bait at some point this trip. But what we did get is beautiful and plenty enough to start us off. With fantastic fishing last trip and good reports right now there’s a lot to look forward to this trip. Tomorrow we will be somewhere along the coast looking around for both yellowtail and bait to start off.
Something I wanna mention to you all is a fantastic trip at the end of December that has not been recognized enough. This year we are running a 7 day voyage the day after Christmas. With this year the water being so warm and lots of life around there’s gonna be some incredible fishing going around. Instead of being restricted to a 4 day range not only will we have more range but we will have almost twice the amount of fishing time on this trip. I foresee some fantastic fishing on all species especially wahoo, dorado, yellowtail and yellowfin tuna. If you haven’t already check it out on our website royalstar.net or call Tracy, Brian, Tim or myself for more details. Can’t wait to fish with you all soon. We’ll check back in tomorrow with another report!
