The Harvester welcomed FishingNosara Hall of Famer and Northeast FishingNosara Representative Mark Cooney for an excellent day of catching on the 12th.

BIG Yellowfin Tunas put the mega panga (and her tackle) to the test. Look at this rod-snapping catch:

The Harvester‘s “Never Surrender” attitude was on display at this 40+lbs. Yellowfin managed to break a rod, but not break the mega panga’s spirit.

Later in the day the fish got bigger for Team Cooney.

With tons of Yellowfin Tuna on ice, the ocean changed it up and providedย  lovely Dorado scores.

Fantastic work by Captain Alex and the Harvester!

The other half of Adam LeMaster’s group was on the Discoverer on the 11th, and angler Roger Salinas managed to one-up the flagship with this feisty Blue Marlin release.

Excellent work by Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin to round up this monster…they also add a Sailfish release later in the trip:

Like the other group, they stocked up on Dorado filets.

However they upped the ante with multiple awesome Yellowfin Tunas on ice.

Great job by the big battleship!

The Discoverer delivered the goods for angler Dean Givens and his crew on January 10. They ran the gamut of species, highlighted by this awesome Blue Marlin release.

That big monster was followed up by a nice Sailfish release.

The group also stocked up the refrigerator. This big Yellowfin Tuna was complimented by several nice Dorados.

Amazing all-around action on the big battleship!

The fish have been fired up during the month of January, with Captain Fico reporting lots of great action.

This high-flying Saifish is indicative of the type of monsters we’ve been finding very close to shore.

Of course these big billfish gotta eat to stay big, and we have been consistently pulling in the Dorados that make up their bait.

Great work by the 27-foot Super panga Explorer!

Captain Alex welcomed Gage Bonestroo and his son for a fun day of catching on January 7. Big Dorado kept these boys busy.

Always fun to see a young angler enjoying the craft of sportfishing. Here’s what Gage had to say:

Took my 6 year old son on his first offshore fishing trip with Alex on the Harvester. It was one hell of a day! Captain and first mate worked hard to put us on fish… and they did! Great lunch and friendly crew. Thanks Craig for a seemless experience. Top notch.
