The Harvester welcomed Joe Garcia and his family for an excellent day of offshore action in mid-July.
The kids were all over these big Sailfish release…great work by these young anglers!
Not wanting to leave empty-handed, this group also nabbed some tasty Yellowfin Tuna filets for the dinner table:
Fantastic day by the mega panga Harvester with client Greg Henry reporting a wide variety of great catches. The early strikes were these nice-sized Yellowfun Tuna. and big Dorados:
Very strong fighters (see the broken rod) and great tasting filets!
Then they released two strong Pacific Sailfish:
They topped off the day with this beautiful Blue Marlin!
Great work by Captain Alex and the Harvester.
Great video from our new friends at iLa Life Vlog.
Successful first water test for the 31′ Harvester!
We got her finished just in time to be featured on the upcoming Florida Sportsman Dream Boat TV. Big thanks to Dave East and Rick Ryals of Florida Sportsman Magazine.
Team Bealls scored a pair of sweet Sailfish with Captain David on the Discoverer during a 5 hour trip on July 5.
Great work by the battleship!
“Great time had by all, here are some pictures from our 7/2 trip on Wanderer.” writes Jeff Beall.
Check out this monster:
Later on they encountered a school of big Yellowfin Tunas.
Each of the boys tackled a Yella Fella of their own on this trip.
First Mate Alex is always trying new things, and for these big Tunas he likes to vent them of their blood immediately after the catch using a strong rope and a small incision above the tail.
This keeps the boat clean, preserves ice, and most importantly produces a blast of oxygen-rich blood into the spread which attracts more bites.
Great work by this hard-fishing family!
Client Max Kellogg scored a mighty Marlin with the flagship Wanderer on May 2.
This high-flying monster put up a heck of a fight, but Max kept the heat on her aided by Captain William’s masterful boat handling:
Look carefully at the :08 mark…How the heck does he keep perfect pace to keep the Marlin alongside while still sneaking out from behind the wheel to take this picture?
Cause he is a badass. That’s how.
Nice fish-handling by First Mate Alex to see the fish and angler safely separated to fight another day.
Max followed up this fish of a lifetime with a few Sailfish releases.

Then they closed out the day with a picture-perfect Rooster fish release.
“We just got back.ย Got a 300# Blue, 2 decent sized Sailfish, and a nice Rooster, probably 40#+. ย Lost a couple of small dorado. ย ย Came in about 2:30. ย Great trip – perfect conditions!”
It’s unusual for us to get an email from a client mere minutes after they get back to shore, but Roy Jackson hit us up with the email titled: Awesome Day!
“4 sails and one 400 lb marlin. Got some great HD video of the marlin on the gopro. That was a long 45 minutes to land it.“
Now let’s enjoy some photos from this fight:
The rest of the day had strong action for Roy and the whole family.
The kids really put on a show with a Double Sailfish release, expertly coordinated by First Mate Alex.
It’s always great to see youngsters posting such great results. Fantastic fishing day by the Jackson family and the mighty Wanderer!

At 4:00 this nasty Black Marlin evades capture, skyrockets past the motor, and breaks off the leader.
At 4:10 the Marlin comes up to wave good-bye. Insane!
These Jacksonville anglers for a fun-filled five hour trip on the Explorer…after a pair of early Marlins on the line, they kept at it and their efforts were rewarded with a cooler full of delicious Dorados.
