Yesterday’s promised photos supplement Captain Toussaint’s reporting today that features little more than another successful turn less any dockside antics or drama; just the way we like it. Any way photos today at full resolution feature Royal Star veteran Kerry Krueger in the heat of battle pulling on his 86# Guadalupe prized Yellowfin. With our trusty Pentax W20 camera I made an attempt to capture the dramatic setting while fishing up against Guadalupe’s famed Outer Rock. The backdrop of this incredible chunk of rock up close and personal makes every catch here far more memorable. Enjoy today’s images and look for Randy’s reports to continue throughout the week.

The fish have displayed a pattern here in the offshore grounds recently by making a great showing one day and disappearing the next, unfortunately for us today was the no show day. We scratched up 25yft and a few dorado while working down to an island where we'll target yellows tomorrow. The water structure is still in place and I'm sure this fish will pop back up, hopefully its in a few days when we hit it on the back end of the trip.

Nothing like wide open yellowtail fishing to erase the memory of a slow day like yesterday. Huge boilers of yellows started showing first thing this morning and bit with reckless abandon until we had our fill. All offerings worked well with many of the guys going to the surface iron and waxwings to get the visual effects from the bites. We are running out to Lupe tonight where we hope to spend the next two days targeting the quality yft that Tim had a shot at last trip.

Guadalupe didn't give up its bounty easily today in spite of a couple good showings on 70-100lb tuna. Our group of seasoned anglers gave it a great effort and were able to coax seven 70-90lbers into the RSW while paying the usual thirty percent tax to the local GW population. The potential is here so we're spending the night with hopes that tomorrow is the day that they ley their guard down. Royal Star regular 'Hot Bobby' shows off a 90lber in today's shot.

Another fine show on this 70-100lb tuna today but getting them to bite proved to be quite a challenge. We managed to boat 9 fish from 70-98lbs, no huge day but that is the nature of fishing trophies at times.
We're traveling up tonight and will finish up in the offshore grounds tomorrow. Sam Sourakli with a 80lber in today's shot.

We started the morning with a lucky kelp that produced wide open action on quality dorado which was quite therapeutic after a couple days of slow scratching at the island. We also managed to string together a few short stops on school yft to make for a nice ending to the trip. We are presently traveling up in nice weather and will be in at 0800 tomorrow. Tim departs on a seven day so look for his reports on the 17th.
