Good sign of bluefin showed just as our first run of the season came to an end. "Such is fishing", "timing is everything", etc. etc. All of us venturing early season voyages know the score. With limited coverage offshore that ocean becomes very large, very quick. Ultimately some aerial coverage shrank the playing field but not before Captain Alex Natipadab was too far to make good on the find. Our colleagues, who timed the find to perfection, drove right in and posted some excellent scores. Ready to rock on the trip departing tomorrow the boys are ready to jump in and claim our share. From here forward the boat is on line boasting many cosmetic, mechanical, and technological improvements following a protracted maintenance period this year.

Other than the potential for a little grumpy offshore spring weather to slow us down for a day or two we expect to be on line non stop taking full advantage of the local offshore bluefin tuna and yellowtail fishery for a few weeks before heading on our first long trip down below. Today's photo features the new Royal Star salon ready to host anglers this season. We can't wait to get fishin' with you all!!
