Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara
Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
John and Liz Rozas have returned to Nosara and they are primed up for some big time action with their main man Captain David. These hard-fishing folk hail from New Jersey and they got the action going quick with some sweet Sailfish releases:
Captain David kept them in the thick of the action all day and Mate Kevin hooked these bad boys with great precision.
Check out the sweet fish handling by the Rozas on these Sailfish.
Fantastic action for FishingNosara Hall of Famer George Shipley on the Explorer. Waaaaaaay back in February 2011 Mr. Shipley earned enshrinement with the first double billfish day in the history on the then-new Super Panga.
Looks like he remembered the formula!
This double release was the highlight of the day that also featured a three solo Sailfish releases:
Plus a real nice Wahoo:
Add a late-day Dorado and you have a feast for the Hall of Famer.
Excellent work by Captain David and Mate Kevin to deliver the goods for this awesome angler.
Another day, another six Sailfish releases for client Hendrik Engel. We first met Mr. Engel when he snagged some Sailfish with Captain David on Christmas Day, but this time the presents were really piled around the tree!
The best part is that this swarm of Sails was released in just five hours of fishing.
Great fishing handling as usual by Mate Kevin, who is showing off our newest piece of FishingNosara gear.
These Incite Brands Hi-Tek Dri-Fits are all the rage in Nosara now…make sure to snap yours up before we run out of the initial batch!
The Explorer is on fire right now and we know to always expect amazing action from the 26-foot Super panga.
Awesome work by Captain David on the legendary Explorer.
On March 3rd we welcomed back our new friend Hendrik Engel for another three rounds of billfish bouts.
This lovely Sailfish was a sign of good things to come as Mr. Engel really gathered up the release on the 5th.
Hendrik has only been fishing with us for about 6 months but he already has a reputation for lighting up the scoreboard every time he goes out.
Joe Rodriguez had a magnificent day on the Explorer as Captain David navigated the Super panga through a gauntlet of big fighting fish.
Nancy got in on the action too with a nice Sail release!
Here’s the email we got from Joe:
Hello Craig,
Cathy Riddle was back for more blue water action on February 20 and got off to a fast start with another Dorado on ice, plus a nice looking Wahoo.
Personally, I think the T-shirt is what lured him in.
The Sailfish bite was on in the early afternoon as they released this beast:
Great work by these Florida anglers!
Captain David delivered an identical catch report the next day for client Cathy Riddle, as another Sailfish and another Dorado found the hooks on February 17.
Clearly Captain David has his approach dialed-in and the Explorer is in mid-season form.
Our pal Francois Bernier took another crack at the blue water beasties and added this nice Sailfish release to his ledger:
He followed up with a 30lbs. Dorado to keep his icebox full of filets.
Excellent inshore action on the Explorer today! Check out these fine tastin’ White Tunas:
All in a day’s work for Captain David and the baddest Super Panga in the bay.
Harris Savin finished his fishing adventurer with Captain David on the Explorer, only a special guest was on hand in the mate position: Captain Carlos of the Adventurer.
Carlos started Harris out on this great week of fishing, so it is only fitting that he see Mr. Savin finish strong.
Another day, another five Sailfish!
With this beefy White Tuna thrown in for dinner, I’d say this is the perfect end to a perfect week for Harris Savin!
