Northeast angler Dennis Cinquino returned for another blue water adventure on April 2 with Captain William reporting an excellent Black Marlin release.
The King of the Seas wasn’t going down without a fight, but in the end was no match for the flagship.
Great work by Captain William and the mighty Wanderer!
April got off to a good start with this excellent Dorado scored by Captain Carlos on the Discoverer:
The Wanderer welcomed back our old friend John Baumgart after many years since his last visit.
After John iced this big Dorado, he got hooked up to a big Sailfish that managed to escape.
The Wanderer kept knocking out Sailfish as the month came to an end. Check out this high-flyer!
Great fish handling by Mate Johnson to see this monster safely released.
The Explorer welcomed client Will Cwikiel for a trip to the blue water and Captain Fico reports a nice Sailfish release.
Excellent work by the Super panga!
Good day of action for Bart Stephens and his family on the 30th.
The early scores were small Dorado and Red Groupers.
The late afternoon bite yielded a true whopper…check out this giant Cubera Snapper.
The Harvester welcome the Willis group for a great day of action on the 30th, and these tough-fishing Texans were ready to to battle with big billfish.
After the first safe release at 8:30am, a second monster came calling at 9:15am.
The final fish of the day came in the early afternoon. All safe releases and all big smiles!
Fresh off of a two Sailfish day, Captain David upped the ante with a Striped Marlin release on the 30th.
A great trophy fish release can work up an appetite…fortunately Captain David delivered dinner in the form of these big Dorados:
Bob Rhinehart came to the Explorer looking to fill the fish box, and he got as that he asked for.
The big filets came in the form of big Yellowfin Tuna backed up a fat Dorado…excellent work!
Bob returned the next day for another foray into the blue water. The bite was slow early in trip, but heated up in a big way in the afternoon.
This Dorado hit at 4:45pm and even though it was late, Captain Fico knew they were on the right spot.
Less than an hour later this Striped Marlin took the bait at 5:25pm
From striking out to hitting a home run all within one hour…persistence pays!
Texas angler Brandy Willis brought her fun-loving group down to Nosara for an action-packed week of blue water fishing action.
This high-flying Blue Marlin was the first fish of the day for the flagship, and the action would stay hot throughout the day.
Next up with this aggressive flying Sailfish, which managed to spit the hook after a series of acrobatic leaps.
Awww, shucks!
Fortunately the bite stayed good, as evidenced by this tasty Dorado for the dinner table caught by Dustin Purvis.
