The Harvester welcomed a super-fun group of Texas anglers for the first of three big days of blue water action on June 4.
Tracey Melnar, Jennifer Felchak-Tagliabue, Donna Trubee, Norman Trubee, and Dave Tagliabue stayed inshore on their first day and scored a beautiful Cubera Snapper.
Safe to say they got dinner filets on ice for the week!
Then they added this wonderful Rooster Fish release later in the day.
Great start to a big week of fishing!
Art and Christine Jones got their week of fishing off to a fast start with the Harvester reporting a swarm of sweet Sailfish releases.
Check out the above-the-water action from these fired-up high-flyers:
After the early run of Sailfish releases they hooked into this meaty Dorado estimated to weigh 30lbs.
With dinner taken care of, the Jones crew went back to trophy fish hunting:
Around mid-day they hooked-up a hunting pair of Sailfish. Mate Kevin did an excellent job to coordinate both fights and ensure safe releases.
They followed up with another double hookup, but this time one spit the hook and escaped.
Art Jones enjoyed a great day on the Harvester, starting with some sweet Sailfish releases.
Later on they boated some nice sized Yellowfin Tunas for the dinner table.
Great work by Captain Alex!
The Harvester is dialed-in and Captain Alex’ clients are reaping the rewards on the mega panga.
Craig Sutton joined the crew for an afternoon offshore and released a bunch of nice Sailfish.
They also nabbed this sweet Cubera Snapper late in the day. Captain Alex has been experimenting with shorter hooks to help land these monsters, and it looks to be paying off.
Sometimes the offshore bite ain’t happening, but the wily Captain Alex is deft enough to move inshore for world-class bottom fishing action.
Client Richard Shultz started out with a whopper of a Cubera Snapper, then scored a trophy-caliber Rooster fish.
Great work by the flexible Harvester!
Captain Alex took Team Engle for a Sailfish catching adventure on May 21 with multiple releases:
What a fighter!
The Sailfish were piled up thick but the Mega Panga kept the fights short and maximized her results.
Edgar Bonilla moved to the Harvester on the 20th and nabbed another sweet Sailfish for his scorecard.
Safe released by Mate Kevin as always.
Randy Hudson stayed inshore on May 20 and knocked big Rooster Fish off of his bucket list.
This sweet pez gallo was safely released after the picture as always.
