Captain Fito welcomed Danny Baker on March 20. Let’s have Danny tell it:
400lbs bluemarlin!!!! 5 Mahi’s 150 libs filet! Feed the complex!! 1 triple tail!!! YUM, YUM!!! + yellowfin tunas! Fito is the MAN!!
We found a baboo raft loaded with bait fish. Fito wore them out! I love him!!! He out fished the fleet!
The Wanderer had a big day on March 20 with Chris and Catherine Elkins’ family scoring early and often.
A swarm of Dorado scores was augmented by this high-powered Sailfish release.
Michael Teachout joined the Explorer on March 20 for a big day of Dorado action:
Our buddy Dave Marciano and his posse from the Hard Merchandise scored an excellent Dorado release with the Wanderer on March 19.
They also added a nice Yellowfin Tuna to the scorecard.
On the Explorer, angler Erik Lyndaker’s group piled up the Dorado filets during their March 19th trip.
They also nabbed some Yellowfin Tunas for variety:
Of course the barroom brawler also battled a pair of Sailfish; both safe released as always.
Team Tedrick scored again on March 18 with the mega panga Harvester keeping the decks bloody and the fishbox full.
They also released a nice Sailfish.
Marine nature was on full display; check out this close encounter with a bottlenose dolphin.
They also hooked up this Shark, and cut the line before it took a finger!
The Discoverer delivered the goods on March 18 with a fine selection of Dorados on ice:
Also in mid-March, the battleship scored this excellent Dorado:
The Harvester was stoked to welcome the Marciano family on March 17 for a nice day of fish catching.
An early Dorado broke the ice, then the balance of the day was spent gathering Yellowfin Tunas and bigger Dorados.
We always encourage folks to fish for full eight-hour days to maximize the chance of catching, but sometime people like Ben Merkley stick with the 5 hour half day and make fools of us all.
Captain Antonio and Mate Raffa scored an awesome Blue Marlin release, then added a Sailfish release:
Plus they scored a nice Dorado for the dinner table (lunch basket?) and were back on shore at noon. Incredible performance from the barroom brawler Explorer.
Ryan Pugh performed brilliantly with the Discoverer on March 17. This BIG Dorado was backed-up by one of the biggest Rainbow Runners you’ll ever see.
The youngsters stepped up with some nice Dorados:
Team Pugh also bested a pair of excellent Yellowfin Tunas. What a great haul by Captain Carlos and the big battleship!
