Girls of FishingNosara Archives - Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara

October 24, 2020

Mike Earnest kicked off our new fishing season with a big fun group from North Central Florida. They enlisted the Harvester and Discoverer for their fishing mission.

This hard-charging Sailfish was the catch of the day, and was released by the mega panga.

Throughout the day they scored multiple Yellowfin Tunas.

Over on the Wanderer, Captain William was itching to get back on the water after the long offseason.

The Master Captain got right down to business with a boat load of Yellowfin Tunas on ice. Here’s a sampling:

Lisa Branca and April Rountree returned on the 10th for more fun fishing action.

Multiple Sailfish releases were backed up with a monster Dorado.

What a great catch! With the filets on ice, the ladies took a break from catching fish to move to the forward platform to catch some rays.

Another great day on the mega panga Harvester.

Captain Alex and the Harvester put on a show for Lisa Branca’s group on February 8. Great Sailfish releases dominated the early part of the trip.

They also stepped up to battle a bunch of big Dorados. Looks like dinner is served!

For the finale, Captain Alex took it inshore and they fought this nice Jack Crevalle very close to shore.

Amazing work by the People’s Champion Harvester.

On February 8, Captain Alex and Mate Wilson welcomed Lisa Branca and April Rountree for a wild day on the water. Several sweet Sailfish releases topped the scorecard.

Great work by the crew to safely handle these fish.

The monster of the day was nice floor-sweeping Dorado.

Ronnie and Tammy Stuart found big fish lurking near to shore on June 26, with Captain William reporting sweet action headlined by this Rooster Fish release:

Some nice Yellowfin Tuna catches followed, surrounded by some mystery hook-ups…whatever was biting, it was BIG!

June 9, 2019

On June 9 Captain Fico welcomed Kenny and Natalie Self to the Explorer, these Louisiana-based anglers scored early and often.

A nice array of normal-sized catches led off the trip, but the highlight was this MASSIVE Yellowfin Tuna:

Holy cow! Tasty Yellowfin tuna filets all around!

Josh and Montana Crump are a great pair of fun-loving Tallahassee, FL based anglers, and they brought their sportive attitudes to the Explorer on June 5.

They scored big on the bottom with big Red Groupers.

The Crumps got married a year ago, and this trip to Nosara is their delayed honeymoon. Great work by this young couple.

April 28, 2019

Wesley Berry’s group put in big work on a short trip with Captain Fico reporting good action on a morning 5 hour trip.

After the Sailfish release, they belted up for a nice fight against a big Yellowfin Tuna.

Great work by the barroom brawler Explorer.

The flagship Wanderer was stoked to welcome Texas anglers Jeff Kirk, Brad Taylor, Tyson Muenich, and Ashley Watson for a big day on April 14.

Excellent Sailfish release dominated the early part of the trip, which also featured this nice Dorado for the icebox:

They nagged a final Sailfish release later in the day. Excellent work by the mighty flagship Wanderer!

February 5, 2019

Alex Stark took his party to the Harvester on February 5th, and this group nagged a sweet Sailfish release and a bunch of Dorados.

Too bad this was just a 5 hour trip…the fish were chewing the bottom out of the boat and the mega panga had to leave the bite in order to make it back to shore on time.
