Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
Kenneth Noonan had a very productive half day with Captain Alex reporting two sweet Sailfish releases for the Harvester.
The second fish was a real fighter, and put on a heck of a show above the water.
Great fish handling by Mate Kevin for safe releases all around.
Mark and Kimberly Sechelski performed wonderfully on the big battleship Discoverer on August 8 with this excellent Sailfish release.
Masterful work by Captain Carlos on the catch and Mate Juan Carlos on the release.
Plenty of big smiles on the Discoverer!
Dean McPhearson and his crew joined the Wanderer for an offshore hunt and scored a pair of wonderful Sailfish releases on their 6.5 hour trip.
ย
The first release was a monster, and the second was nothing to sneeze at either:
The Wanderer welcomed fun-loving Texans Harold and Cindy Derby and their friends Eugene and Pam Patton for an exquisite day of action on August 6.
Lots of great Sailfish action was reported by Captain William.
Fred Schroder scored the fish of a lifetime with Captain Alex on August 6. Take a gander at this MASSIVE Black Marlin:
The Harvester backed this monster down aggressively to keep the fight short and sweet; a benefit to both fish and angler.
Later in the day they also released a big Sailfish:
Amazing work by Captain Alex and Mate Kevin on the Harvester.
The Discoverer is equally adept at conquering inshore trophies as she is fighting big billfish…check out this memorable Rooster Fish release caught just a few miles from shore.
Truly a bucket-list caliber catch from the big battleship!
Rusty McClain, our new friend from Texas, stayed inshore on the 4th and boated a HUGE Cubera Snapper.
Tasty Snapper filets coming right up, along with a side order of sandwich-sized Dorado:
The Harvester welcomed Harold Derby’s great group for the first of their three fishing days, and they brought the best element for a good day on the water: Great attitudes!
Captain Alex stayed on the hunt as they gathered Bonita for bait.
The bite was a little slow, with a few mystery fish spitting the hooks.
Still all smiles for these big fishing Texans who are primed for a great week of action.
Javier and some of the Nosara Paradise Rentals staff put up the “Gone Fishing” sign in the office and take the afternoon to enjoy some family fishing on the Wanderer.
Dario nabbed this sandwich-sized Dorado, and then Yosef boated a nice Cubera Snapper.
However the boys were beat out by this monster Snapper:
Meanwhile over on the Explorer Captain Fico celebrated his birthday with his young son bending a rod with this Yellowtail Snapper:
Great family fun for the staff!
Josh Metzgar joined the Wanderer for a brief 2.5 hour trip but that didn’t stop Captain William from delivering the goods:
This is a no-joke Cubera Snapper, roped in just a few miles from shore…great quick work by the flagship!
