Charles Efird and Huck Venters joined the Wanderer for back-to-back trips in late August, with Captain William reporting thick numbers of Sailfish lurking offshore.
These North Carolina anglers performed brilliantly with these billfish releases.
The next day they nabbed several more Sailfish releases:
Plus there were a few nice Yellowfin Tuna catches to round out the day; always good to have filets for the dinner table!
Great work by Charles, Huck, and their families!
The Explorer snatched up a little bit of everything in mid-August. They pulled a double trophy release with this Sailfish and Rooster fish on the same trip:
Then they paired another Rooster fish release with a full fishbox of filets:
The Super panga is on a hot streak and continues to create converts to Extreme Panga fishing.
Russell Brewster struck again with an offshore haul that included a big Dorado and some nice Yellowfin Tuna on ice backed up by a super Sailfish releases.
Captain Alex has the Harvester dialed-in and her late season performance his year has been staggering.
Excellent work by the Mega Panga.
The Harvester found gold with Craig Sutton nabbing a 150+lbs. Yellowfin Tuna on August 12.
Craig casted for this monster over a pod of spinning porpoises and brought him home with an efficient 25 minute fight on a Penn Slammer spinning reel.
It’s rare to see a fish the Captain Alex can’t lift off the deck, but this one fits the bill.
Fellow anglers Kim and Lloyd Michael were on board and scored an excellent Sailfish release, plus added their own meat with a 50+ lbs. Dorado.
Great day on the Mega Panga!
More great catches reported by the Discoverer. On August 12 Captain Carlos reports this sweet Sailfish release backed up by a nice Rooster fish release:
Nice fishing from the battlship!
Kenneth Noonan had a very productive half day with Captain Alex reporting two sweet Sailfish releases for the Harvester.
The second fish was a real fighter, and put on a heck of a show above the water.
Great fish handling by Mate Kevin for safe releases all around.
Mark and Kimberly Sechelski performed wonderfully on the big battleship Discoverer on August 8 with this excellent Sailfish release.
Masterful work by Captain Carlos on the catch and Mate Juan Carlos on the release.
Plenty of big smiles on the Discoverer!
Dean McPhearson and his crew joined the Wanderer for an offshore hunt and scored a pair of wonderful Sailfish releases on their 6.5 hour trip.
ย
The first release was a monster, and the second was nothing to sneeze at either:
The Wanderer welcomed fun-loving Texans Harold and Cindy Derby and their friends Eugene and Pam Patton for an exquisite day of action on August 6.
Lots of great Sailfish action was reported by Captain William.
Fred Schroder scored the fish of a lifetime with Captain Alex on August 6. Take a gander at this MASSIVE Black Marlin:
The Harvester backed this monster down aggressively to keep the fight short and sweet; a benefit to both fish and angler.
Later in the day they also released a big Sailfish:
Amazing work by Captain Alex and Mate Kevin on the Harvester.
