Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
Shane and Kristina Sheltra returned to Nosara in late December, and on the 27th they had a great day of blue water fishing on the Explorer.
This monster Blue Marlin release was the highlight of a day that also included great Sailfish action.
Awesome work by the barroom brawler Explorer.
Sean Donovan’s group scored an amazing Blue Marlin release on the 24th.
For those keeping score at home, that is two Marlin releases in as many day for the big battleship Discoverer.
A sweet Sailfish release rounded out the scorecard.
The Wanderer and Captain William endured a slow day in late December, but still came away with a nice Dorado for angler Chris Barnett’s group.
Captain Alex and the Harvester scored a Blue Marlin release on December 23. Get a look at this beauty:
Great job by Captain David (of the Adventurer) filling-in at the mate position. This monster was safely released as always.
While the big boats were offshore battling Marlins, the Explorer chose a closer orbit and Captain Fico’s witchcraft paid off for the Stephane Ughetto group.
This BIG Yellowfin Tuna (~60lbs.) was clearly the catch of the day, and it was backed up with a nice Sailfish release.
Excellent work by Mate Antonio and Captain Fico.
On December 23, John Turchetta’s group and the Discoverer nagged the fish of a lifetime with this wonderful Blue Marlin release.
Great hunting by Captain Carlos and excellent fish handling by Mate Kevin.
The Coffey family brought home the bacon on December 17, with Captain Alex reporting a nice spread of Dorado and Yellowfin Tunas for the filet bag.
Excellent work by this young angler and the unstoppable Harvester.
The barroom brawler Explorer welcomed Nick Moyers for day of fishing on the blue water. Captain Fico reports that the highlight of the trip was a double Sailfish hook-up.
Both fish were safely released separately.
They also nagged some nice Yellowfin Tuna filets for the dinner table.
Excellent work by the super panga Explorer!
The Explorer welcomed Andrew Pickens’ group for a very productive day of offshore action on December 14. This Sailfish release was the highlight:
After the safe release, the barroom brawler loaded up on Yellowfin Tunas and a nice Dorado.
Great job by Captain Fico!
Who says you need a big boat to catch big fish? Don’t tell that to Captain David and the Adventurer. Look at these catches from Kevin Hrabinski’s group.
These monster Yellowfin Tunas were caught on December 13 just a few miles off the beach.
Great work by the 23-foot switchblade.
