Richard Tullis helped finish out a great week of fishing for the Odd Couples, with this fun Rooster Fish release.
The Odd Couples really got cooking on May 31. After a slow day of trolling offshore, these savvy Florida anglers chose to stay inshore where the fresh rain water helped stir up a nice array of bottom dwellers.
A pair of big Cuberra Snappers were the highlight of the trip until this beefy Rooster fish stole the spotlight:
After a safe release, the team got back to meat harvesting with a septuplet of sweet Yellowtail Snappers.
Take a look at the day’s haul:
Looks like the best fish market you’ve ever seen, courtesy of Captain William and the multi-faceted Wanderer.
Cheryl got the action fired-up for the Odd Couples group with this nice Sailfish release:
These Jacksonville, FL anglers fished for five straight days so this was clearly a nice icebreaker. Great work by First Mate Alex to assist with the fight and see to the safe release of this big billfish.
We welcomed a big fun group of folks from our hometown of Jacksonville, FL and they scored some great inshore lunkers aboard the Wanderer.
Henry Starling, Rick Tullis, Richard Hosey, and Mike Glenn brought their families along for this inshore conquest and it is safe to say that all mouths were fed by these excellent Cubera Snappers.
They also added a pair of trophy releases in the form of these excellent Rooster Fish:
Great work by this posse of North Florida anglers!
The resilient Wanderer scored this big Dorado with Steve Belew and his group on May 28th.
This catch represents the last fish that these old Star Rods will ever catch…Matty showed up today with a fresh shipment of our custom FishingNosara rods from Poseidon Fishing.
Lot of memories in these old sticks, but its time to put them in the museum where they belong.
Bart Carey and the boys followed up with ANOTHER awesome Marlin release on their third and final trip of the week. Check out this monster:
Otherworldy boat handling by Captain Willam and equally great fishing handling by First Mate Alex made for another amazing billfishing experience for Bart Carey.
William Christian Flanagan and his boys hit the water hard on May 26 with a legendary performance on the mighty Wanderer.
Captain William took the flagship offshore where a huge Black Marlin hit the baits early in the day, and put up a fight that left these anglers drenched in sweat.
The hard work paid off as everyone a picture with this fish-of-a-liftime before First Mate Alex saw to the clean release.
The momentuem stayed positive with a second Black Marlin release in the early afternoon.
Third time’s a charm, right!
These Texas anglers triumphed on this, the third Marlin of the trip!
With these guys ares about to turn to jelly, First Mate Alex was left to shine alone in the final photos of the day.
We’ve had great fortune with anglers from the Lone Star State, and the Flanagan Boys kept the Texas karma strong!
Dr. Bart Carey and his crew had a knock-out day on the Wanderer with not one, not two, but THREE Marlin releases.
The second Marlin came hot of the heels of the first, with only 45 minutes between releases.
They scored this tasty Dorado for the fishbox:
The final send-off was this amazing above-the-water Marlin fight. Check the action on this beast:
Great safe releases by First Mate Alex underscore another magnificent performance by Captain William and the famous Wanderer.
Komis Psaros’ group added to their legend by following up their Double Sailfish release with a beautiful Rooster Fish release.
Just like with billfish, we release Rooster Fish after a quick photos. Excellent fish-handling by First Mate Alex to ensure the safe survival of this beautiful creature.
Double Sailfish Release for Komis and the boys!
Great boat-handling by Captain William and fish-handling by First Mate Alex to see to the safe release of both of these majestic fish.
