Lots of Groupers today on the Wanderer. A group of yogis took a 2.5 hour morning trip on the flagship and caught 4 Red Groupers each weighing over 15lbs.
On an afternoon 2.5 hour trip client Patrick and his group caught another pair of Red Grouper weighing about 12lbs. each.
Nice fishing on a day where the green water and full moon might scare away less adaptable fisherman…Captain William delivers another memorable performance despite some long odds.

Isabel Fernandez comes to Nosara from a lovely little South Florida fishing village that is just a few blocks from the IGFA Hall of Fame. Floridan anglers are certainly no stranger to productive days on the water, and the afternoon of March 8 was another day at the office for these Sunshine Staters.
First up was the tasty and elusive Congrio, known for it’s excellent white meat. Then these Floridians really piled the fishbox with a swath of tasty Grouper.
Most importantly, everyone has a great time and has big smiles to show for it…another great trip by the Wanderer.

Jon Infanti brought a whole swarm of folks down to Nosara this week and on March 7 booked the Wanderer, Explorer, and Sportsman for a full-on fishing party. The full moon brought some brackish green water in close to shore, but the Captains of FishingNosara know how to overcome obstacles like bad water.
All three boats caught fish, with the Sportsman and Captain Eduardo leading the way with 7 Red Groupers.
The Wanderer kept pace with three nice Red Groupers as well as multiple Jack Crevalles for the fish box.
The Explorer stayed a little closer to shore and scored a nice Red Grouper and five tasty Congrios.
All told these folks put a nice hurtin’ on the meat fish and should have enough filets to feed even the largest dinner party. Excellent work by some folks who certainly know how to have a good time on the water.

Another great family fishing trip on the Wanderer! This time the big Red Groupers were around and Captain William kept the big blue beauty right on top of this nice pot of fish.
Nice effort from this family in catching a whole cooler full of filets. Yummy!

The Wanderer is the ideal place to get your kids bit with the fishing bug. Captain William and First Mate Alex are great with kids and are excellent teachers of the craft of Costa Rican sportfishing.
Client Garrett and his family had an action packed 2.5 hour trip on the Wanderer and scored a nice White Tuna and a bunch of Blue Runners. Both young men got a chance to reel in some fish and a great time was enjoyed by all.
Hey, is that a signed Robert August hat? Cool lid kid!

Jeff Grosshandler of Namaste Oasis has built a wonderful fractional ownership operation over the last three years and a staple part of his clients’ experiences has been a day on the famous Wanderer tracking down blue water monsters. Joined by Doug Carras, Mr. Grosshandler enlisted Captain William and First Mate Alex for a half-day trip and brought home a nice Dorado for the dinner table.
Who says chicken can’t fly?
Excellent catch by Doug Carras and our main man Jeff Grosshandler!

Neil Jerome was one of the first clients to fish these waters on the now-famous Wanderer back in November 2009, so Captain William and First Mate Alex were stoked to welcome him back for a quick 2.5hr morning trip on February 28. They trolled for Dorado then but today they big blue beauty put ‘er in park right on top of the newly-discovered fantastic Red Grouper bite.
They nabbed a cooler full of the Red Groupers, plus added this tasty Congrio.
Once again the Wanderer proves that she is fit for battle with all the fish in these waters, inshore or offshore.

John Murdaugh and his group come from a small South Carolina town but when these guys hit the water in Nosara they meant buisness big-time. On board the magnificent Wanderer with Captain William and First Mate Alex, these guy brought home a trio of fish that are all monsters in their own regard; taken together this is truly the trip of a lifetime.
This 50+lbs. Dorado was first out of the chute and John brought him in like an old pro. Next up was a mighty Pacific Sailfish who they caught and released very efficeintly…less than 15 minutes from hook up to release.
The final fight was from a MASSIVE Striped Marlin that came screaming through the baits like a banshee. The fight was a true test of angling mettle, but John Murdaugh and his team were apt to win the battle. Both billfish wereย safely released as always…niceย work by First Mate Alex.
I can’t wait to see the video from their pole camera but hopefully we’ll have in up here real soon.
A fantastic day of catching that will have the whole town of Hanahan, SC talking.

Amazing news from the mighty Wanderer!
On Day 3 of their Costa Rican Fishing Adventure, John Michael Burling and his group hooked up one of the nicest Blue Marlin of the season. This fish tore through the spread hot and heavy picking off baits until First Mate Alex dropped a fateful pitch bait to the beast. Captain William spun the boat around and keep this monster on a short leash…too much slack and this baby would be a memory.
After a vigorous half-hour battle this Blue Marlin was ready to be released to do battle another day.
See you next time pal!
