The Wanderer delivered the fish of a lifetime to Heidi O’Calligan on the 18th. Check out this amazing Marlin release:

Jim O’Calligan added a near-floor sweeper Dorado for the dinner table.

The group also bested this high-flying Sailfish. Another great release.

“I was most pleased to take the traditional celebratory dunk in celebration of my FIRST BLUE MARLIN!!!” Heidi wrote on Facebook. “Captain Rick Ryals did the honors! AND I caught and released ANOTHER BIG SAILFISH today too, #6!!! Needless to say I am sore from head to toe and I’m sporting some pretty impressive fisherman’s bruises. I’ll take them any day!!”

Master Captain William pulled-off a great ‘slump-buster’ trip on August 12 with Paul Brannan’s group scoring TWO Blue Marlins!

This first one spit the hook after a long fight and swam off defiant. The next Blue Marlin was reeled all the way in for a live release by Mate Elias.

Throughout the day they also nabbed Yellowfin Tunas of varying sizes…check out the photo above to see Mate Elias fileting one of the bigger Yella Fellas for and onboard sushi feast.

June 15th was the last day for Dan and Natalie Kenel. Their two-week, eight charter campaign yield a bunch of great catches, but this send-off Marlin release tops them all.

Great job by Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin. The Discoverer also reports an excellent Sailfish release.

A late day Dorado put a button on their fishing adventure. Great catches and great times for these Port Charlotte, FL anglers.

Dan and Natalie Kenel posted a banner day on June 10. The highlight was an amazing Blue Marlin strike in the afternoon.

Mate Elias cleared the lines quickly and guided this young angler through the fight all the way to an excellent release.

A nice Sailfish was caught and released.

Master Captain William spent the afternoon tracking down tasty Yellowfin Tunas for the dinner table.

Great work by the flagship Wanderer!

Johnny Bunn upted the ante on June 8, turning in a specatular TWO Marlin release day with Captain Alex on the Harvester.

A few nice Sailfish releases were also posted in the morning.

 

In the afternoon the mega panga confronted rainstorm…they could have gone around, but not when you’re chasing a world-class billfish.

 

Excellent day from the ‘Never Surrender’ Harvester.
