Marlin – Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara

May 13, 2018

Paul Arthur and his fishing buddy Ricky Kay upped the ante on their second day of fishing, with TWO Marlin releases backed up by one of the biggest Dorados we’ve ever seen.

Want to get a sweet fishing jersey like this one? We don’t make them so you can’t, unless you are like Paul Arthur’s group and get your own made in advance of your trip.

Three Marlin releases in less than two days is a remarkable feat, but when you add in this MONSTER Dorado you get the definition of a perfect fishing day:

Amazing action from the mega panga Harvester!

Captain Alex welcomed anglers Paul Arthur and Ricky Kay for a four-day fishing mission, and early on in their adventure they ran into some hungry world-class billfish.

This high-flying Blue Marlin was the highlight of their first day on May 12, which also featured three Sailfish releases.

Excellent hunting by Captain Alex and safe fish handling by Captain David (on loan from the Adventurer) means that these big boys will be around to be caught again in the future.

Great job by the Harvester!

Captain William finished the month strong with a very productive trip, highlighted by this nice Blue Marlin.

Later in the day they set up on a nice pod of Dorados, boating several of these nice monsters.

The fish kept biting even after the clients’ arms wore out, so Mate Wilson reeled up the last one of the day.

James Conner proved his angling prowess by besting a big bad Blue Marlin on February 21 with Captain Alex.
