Thomas Matthews and his family suffered a few lost fish on their inshore half day on July 31, but the mighty Wanderer knows how to bounce back from a tough start.
Late in the trip, Mrs. Matthews hooked up a monster and put on a clinic for the girls.
Check out this sweet Amberjack:
Perseverance pays people!
Great day on the Wanderer for client Thomas DuPuis, who scored a pair of excellent Sailfish.
Captain William always finds the route to Sailfish City, and First Mate Alex is accustomed to sweeping the streets for Sails. Great hunting and great releases by the mighty Wanderer!
Dominic Licari brought his hard-fishin’ crew down from West Palm Beach, FL and they logged three solid days of fishing on the mighty Wanderer.
The highlight of their trips came on June 24:
This Blue Marlin is estimated at 400lbs. and she put up everyone ounce of fight she could muster.
This South Florida team also notched a pair of Sailfish releases, backed up by a few nice Yellowfin Tunas.
Great work by Captain William and First Mate Alex on the famous flagship!
The infamous Wanderer struck again on July 20! Clients Sebastien and Rene Bire took the blue beauty offshore for a 5 hour trip and scored a MASSIVE Blue Marlin!
The combinations of Captain William’s expert boat handling and First Mate Alex’ angler coordination in the cockpit spelled doom for this mighty billfish.
Released alive and well after the photos, this Blue Monster is certainly the fish of a lifetime for the Bire posse.
“This fishing trip was my first and it was amazing, got surrounded by almost 500 dolphins at first and then they got us at the right spot to bring out a 450pound Blue marlin! The team was really nice and the boat was perfect. Amazing day out, thanks FishingNosara!”
Gilles Lemay brought his sons along for a family fishing adventurer on the famous Wanderer, and their late-day trip yielded some excellent table fare.
Looks like these guys have plenty of sushi and filets in their future…Great work by the flagship!
Pedro’s Posse scored big today with Sherry catching her first ever Sailfish.
Another lady who proves that Northeast Florida is home to some of the fiercest anglers on the planet.
Great send-off for Pedro’s Posse on the mighty Wanderer!
The Wanderer welcomed a great Jacksonville couple named Pedro and Sherry Ramirez along with their friends and they had a very productive day inshore.
They caught a whole rainbow of reef running goodness, then topped of the day with this MONSTER Rooster Fish release:
They are heading offshore for billfish tomorrow, so let’s keep fingers crossed.
Kirk and Jan Wurster finished their fishing adventure on July 4 with a trip offshore; after besting Roosters and Snappers inshore the logical choice was to see what was biting in the blue water 10 miles out.
The early bite brought in this nice Dorado:
Later in the afternoon the line screamed off and Kirk belted up to battle a big Sailfish!
Excellent boat handling by Captain William kept the fight short and sweet while First Mate Alex ensured a safe release.
The Kirk Wurster group is on fire this week! They followed up their excellent pair of Rooster fish releases with this tasty keeper:
Kenny scored this whopping Cubera Snapper (estimated right around 30lbs.) and this feisty fish’s filets are full-on fridge fillers!
They also added this nice Dorado for variety:
Jacksonville’s own Kirk Wurster broke the ice on a full week of fishing with this bucket-list caliber Rooster fish:
This was the first of two mighty Pez Gallos scored by the flagship.
The mighty Wanderer proves again that she is fit for all forms of fish warfare with this excellent inshore catch. As usual this fish was released after the photograph. Great work Kirk!
