Charles Newton and Greg Wood got their week started with brisk action on the flagship. The early day inshore bite delivered this sweet Rooster Fish release.
Then in the afternoon the Wanderer headed offshore to do battle with energetic Sailfish.
They added some beefy Yellowfin Tunas in the late-afternoon…perfect end to a well-rounded day of action!
Cale Hensel spent the afternoon with Captain Alex and in just 2.5 hours hooked up a big Rooster Fish backed up by a nice Yellowfin Tuna.
The Adventurer continued to score in late July with a wide variety of marine life finding their way to the icebox.
This Needlefish was an odd surprise, but the ensuing Yellowfin Tunas have been par for the course this month:
Adding to the variety were these ceviche-ready Jack Crevalles:
Tracy Solomon struck again on the 21st with a sweet Yellowfin Tuna score.
Then the action really heated up with a swarm of Sailfish releases.
Jacksonville’s own Charles Newton and Greg Wood got their week of fishing off to a fast start with an excellent Sailfish release.
On July 19 angler James Frye and his group stayed close to shore and found that a swarm of large Yellowfin Tuna was there to meet them.
Why go far if you don’t have to?
They say that writing about catching a fish is like dancing about architecture, so this time we’ll just let the picture tell the story:
Great smile and great fish from angler Tracy Solomon!
Our old pal George Kommick had a wonderful run of trips with Captain Fico from July 15 to July 18th. The first day they filled the refrigerator with a wide array of tasty filets.
The highlight of the week came with the capture and release of this high-flying Blue Marlin:
Estimated around 400lbs., this is clearly a memorable catch for this great angler.
Captain Alex welcomed Raymond Plumb for an afternoon 2.5 hour trip, not enough time to head offshore but enough time ply the inshore reefs for a monster Cubera Snapper.
James Frye experienced MARLIN MANIA on the Harvester with two mammoth releases care of the Mega Panga.
One of these behemoths is clearly the fish-of-a-lifetime, but to score two in one day is truly legendary.
Amazing work by Captain Alex to hunt these monsters down and by Mate Kevin to seamlessly execute the releases.
