Lauren Dannhaus and the Discoverer posted an amazing day of billfish scores on June 18. The highlight was this Double Marlin Release:
The hits kept coming, as the double release was backed up by this nice Sailfish release:
Awesome work by the big battleship Discoverer.
Fresh off of their amazing Marlin release, Richard Fertig rejoined the Harvester on the 18th for more great billfish action.
This high-flying monster was the highlight of the trip, and was backed up by this additional Sailfish release.
Another great Sailfish release was scored on June 17 by Lauren Dannhaus’ group on the Discoverer.
Richard Fertig scored an amazing Blue Marlin release on the Harvester on June 16.
Then they nagged a pair of gigantic Yellowfin Tunas. Captain Alex reports that each of these monsters clocked in over 80lbs.
Late in the day they also scored this nice Sailfish release:
Great work by the Harvester and Mr. Fertig!
Marie Cooper had a wonderful day of fishing on the Wanderer on June 16, featuring this Wahoo catch:
Wahoo are not rare in our area, but catching them is since our spread is pure monofilment and the Wahoo teeth usual sever the light line.
The trip was rounded out with more traditional catches of Yellowfin Tuna.
On June 14, the Harvester welcomed Brendan Hamlet for a day of BIG Yellowfin Tuna scores.
The first catch was fairly normal-sized, but later in the trip (with the Wanderer looking on) this monster Yella Fella hit the hook:
Great filets on deck for the People’s Champion.
FishingNosara Hall of Famer Jerome McKown returned to the Discoverer on June 14, and they boys kicked off Father’s Day weekend with these stunning Yellowfin Tunas and Dorados.
Great start to the week by Jerome and the crew!
