Hello everyone;
Well, almost home. Weather today was beautiful. Clear skies, flat seas, but it was a bit cold. We made a few stops today, and caught a few Barracuda for the smoke house, then we called it a trip. The crew cleaned the boat. Most of the passengers talked about the trip, while others talked about upcoming trips. We like give our jackpot winner a big hand. First place goes to Chris Peterson, with a 265 pound Yellowfin tuna, second place goes to Steve Oba, with a 210.3 pound Yellowfin tuna, with third place going to Karl Fechner, with a 185 pound Yellowfin tuna. Honorable mention goes to Joe McBride, with two fish on the kite, a 225 pound Yellowfin tuna and a 213 pound Yellowfin tuna. Honorable mention bait fish goes to Dan Gaudy, with a 175 pound Yellowfin tuna, caught on 50 pound test. So with that note, the boat will be in at 06:00 hours. The R/p crew.

Hello everyone;
Well I guess the planets are not aligned, or something must be wrong. Weather continues to be good for traveling home, but the New England Patriots didn't make the prefect season. The greatest sports upset in NFL history. But that's why we play the game. Congratulation goes out to the New York Giants. Enough about football, we are making good time, so we might make a few stops tomorrow for Yellowtail. But only time will tell. Most of the passengers enjoyed a good movie, or just played cards. While others caught up on some good reads. So with that note, wish us luck, the R/p crew.

Hello everyone;
Weather continues to be excellent, with 10 to 12 knots of breeze,
overcast skies, perfect for traveling home. Today was a day of R&R (rest
and relaxation). Most of our passengers enjoyed movies, while others read,
and some even caught up on there cribbage skills. We are making good time,
so we might make a stop or two for some Yellowtails, or Rock-Cod.
So until tomorrow, wish us luck on the weather, and we will keep you
updated on our events aboard the Royal Polaris. The R/p crew.

Hello everyone;
Things are changing out here at the bank. We had excellent weather today, with 10 to 12 knots of breeze, flat seas, and clear skies. So it was a good day.
Fishing also picked up for the R/p. We had a good day on quality fish. Lucky anglers today were Dan Gaudy with a 175 pound Yellowfin, Karl Fechner with a 185 pound Yellowfin, Frank Harbin with a 165 pound Yellowfin, Joe Amagrande with a 169 pound Yellowfin, Steve Oba with a 215 pound Yellowfin, Tom Edgcomb with a 185 pound Yellowfin. We also hand many light tackle fish caught. Maury Newton, Joe McBride, and Joe Amagrande teamed up to catch a 80 pound Yellowfin on 20 pound test (they were fishing for Wahoo). The only bad news today was we had to leave tonight. With fish showing around the bank, it's time to head for home.
We have excellent traveling weather, and I hopes it stays that way. So until tomorrow, wish us luck. The R/p crew.

Hello everyone;
Well the last day of the month didn't find any giants for us. Weather continues to be same, 15 to 18 knot's of breeze, overcast skies, and some rain.
Fishing continues to be on the tough side, with slow Yellowfin tuna fishing, and just fair on the Wahoo. We have one full day left, then we head for home. We had good action on the flying fish last night, so with any luck we can put them to good use.
So wish us luck and we will keep you posted on our events. The R/p crew.

Hello everyone;
Weather today changed a bit. We had 15 to 18 knots most of the day, rain, and a mixed up ocean. That didn't stop the group of the R/p from getting busy.
It was a tough day of fishing, but if you put you time in at the rail, you would be rewarded with a nice Yellowfin or Wahoo. Some of our anglers just didn't deal with the rain, so most of the time it was lots of room at the rail. Top angler today was Joe McBride. Joe not only caught a Yellowfin over 200 pounds, but he caught two. Both fish came on the kite, on a live flyer. It was fair action on the Wahoo today, with most of the skinnies going 40 to 50 pounds. We have two full days of fishing left, so wish us luck and we will keep you updated on our upcoming events. The R/p crew.

Hello everyone;
Today was better than yesterday, fishing and weather both. We had a fair day of fishing at Hurricane bank. Most of the action was on Yellowfin in the 25 to 40 pound range, and a good bite of Wahoo. Largest fish today was caught by Mike Stanton. Mike's fish weighed out at 205 pounds. We had 5 other fish over the century mark, so things are starting to look up.
Weather wise, we had a stiff breeze out of the northeast, typical Hurricane Bank weather. With 4 days left, we are hoping that the bank is on the upswing, so wish us luck and we will keep you posted on our upcoming events. The R/p crew.

A day at the bank (012808) |

Hello everyone;
We arrived to Hurricane bank at 06:30 hours. We started trolling, and it didn't take long for us to find the Wahoo. It wasn't fast pace action, but it was good enough to keep our passengers busy. We would pick away at the Wahoo most of the day. The Yellowfin tuna action was slow, but we are hoping for better results tomorrow. Not only was the Yellowfin tuna action slow, but so was bait making. We made about 18 flyer's for tomorrow, and for Hurricane bank, that's slow.
Weather today was pleasant most of the day, until late afternoon. The wind was out of the northeast at 15 to 18 knots, with rain most of the day. So with that note, I will close for now. The R/p crew.
P.S. Steve would like to wish us lovely wife, Karen a Happy Birthday. Can't wait to get home. Steve
