David Grandell and his boy were throwing haymakers at all comers with Captain Carlos on the Adventurer! They started out with a big Dorado:
Then set to work on a team of football-sized Yellowfinย Tuna.
For the knockout punch they landed this whopping Cubera Snapper.
Great work by the 23-foot switchblade the Adventurer!
Nosara Paradise Rentals GM, Fuppernos presidente, and Mayor of Nosara Javier Hernandez took to the seas today on the Wanderer.
Flanked by Chief Mechanic Marino, Driver Primero Freddy, and Mate Kevin (of the Explorer), Senor Javier released an awesome Sailfish just a few miles from shore.
Nice work by Mate Kevin on the rope-n’-release!
Javier’s got a family to feed, so after the trophy release he dropped a bait to the reefs and hauled in this big Cubera Snapper.
All in a day’s work for the Mayor!
Record Smashing day on the Adventurer today!
Client Michael Quigley and his lady started their trip with a MASSIVE Sailfish released just two miles from shore.
They followed up with a GIANT Snapper…we think it is a Cubera but we have never seen this shade of red before; perhaps is is a Mangrove Snapper but who cares? Look at the size of this beast:
They rounded out the trip with a gaggle of Yellowfin Tunas on ice.
This is the kind of day we expect from big offshore battle wagons, but the amazing Captain Carlos is coaxing this kind of action very close to shore in a 23-foot vessel; we can’t wait to see what the switchblade pries up next!
Justin Morris and his girl hit on four different species of tasty fish with Captain Carlos on the Adventurer.
This beefy Dorado was the first catch of the day, but by no means was the biggest…get a load of this 30lbs. Cubera Snapper:
They rounded out the day with a perfect-for-sushi Yellowfin Tuna and the elusive Yellowtail Snapper. Both of these fish add a fantastic variety to the dinner table.
Great work by Captain Carlos and the excellent 23-foot Adventurer.
Doc Hatton and the posse are back on the Wanderer and were welcomed with improved weather and a gaggle of hungry fish.
The battleground was less than a mile from Garza point and the Wanderer defended her home turf by building up a classic feeding frenzy. The first catch was a juvinile Yellowtail Snapper, followed up by a medium-sized Nurse Shark.
An inauspicious start indeed, however this is the first phase of stirring up a bottom fish bite. Sure enough the action coaxed some big fish up from their seafloor hiding spots.
This Broomtail Grouper is a real monster! Right behind it was another nice-sized bottom dweller:
The bite stayed strong and a group of Jack Crevelle swung by to investigate the fishy waters.
The final jewel in the Wanderer‘s bottom fishing crown was this nice Rooster fish.
We release this species, but with the massive Snapper and Grouper catches from earlier it is safe to say that Doc Hatton and his group will be well-stocked with filets this week.

Brandon Leon enlisted the Adventurer for and inshore fish hunt and pulled in some real monsters. The highlight was this monsterous Amberjack. This is the largest AJ ever caught on the Adventurer, but we say all the time “Big fish don’t care how big your boat is!”
They also followed up with a big Yellowfin Tuna and a very nice Cubera Snapper.
Once again Captain Carlos delivers great action for his anglers…fantastic work by the 23-foot pocket knife.
The Wanderer put on an inshore fishing clinic today with client Mike Pearce and his friends. The big splash was made with a quartet (that means FOUR) Rooster fish releases with the big one estimated well over 50lbs.
Safe releases all around by the incomparable First Mate Alex.
They also added some tasty eats in the form of a Dorado, a Yellowtail Snapper and a big Cubera Snapper on ice.
Fantastic fishing from the blue beauty and these excellent Canadian anglers.
Great send off for Craig Sutton as the Explorer produced another legendary Cubera Snapper for the US Rep for FishingNosara.
Like usual, this fish was a ‘day-saver’…after a long day of nothing but Bonitas, this monster took the live tuna off the bottom and gave Craig a heck of a fight.
Great filets are already on the way back to Jacksonville, much to the delight of the US office!
Daniel Glover and his family ended their week of fishing on a high note with a pair of Cubera Snappers on ice and big smiles on the faces of the whole family.
The first fish fought fiercely but was no match for young Mr. Glover. This 25lbs. is a real treat to eat and a boatload of fun to fight.
The second Snapper makes the first one look like a minnow! This 40+lbs. Red Buick is the kind of Snapper that keeps anglers up at night worldwide.
Look at the girth on this leviathan!
