Marlin alert on the Wanderer!
The flagship captured this behemoth on August 2 and released her after a legendary battle with Bob Owens’ group.
Great work by Captain William and Mate Johnson on this fish of a lifetime!
Excellent action this month at the Nosara River Mouth!
Local Legend Carlos Yaniz led the way with an array of monsters pulled from the surf.
Also newcomer Gerardo Leon showed his stuff…that’s one full cooler of Snook!
Bob Owens is blew into town on the 30th for a fun week of fishing and he got started right with a super Sailfish release on the Wanderer.
Nice release by Mate Johnson means we”ll be seeing this monster again down the line.
Paul Reynolds took a victory lap on July 29 as his last day of fishing yielded another fish-of-a-lifetime for this Winter Park angler.
The new FishingNosara visor must have lured up a big one…Check out this MASSIVE Cubera Snapper he snagged early in the day.
After the inshore success, Captain William pointed the blue beauty off shore for another stroll through Sailfish City.
Here’s what Paul had to say on Tripadvisor:
“What a great trip! I’m an avid fisherman in Florida and the Bahamas, but this blew all of my other trips away. Everyone from Craig (owner / booking) to Matt and all of the captains & crew were great.”
“We fished 3.5 days and caught 26 billfish, 5 dorado (one at 60 lbs) and 16 yellowfin tuna… not to mention the cubera snapper, amberjack and other inshore fish. We fished mostly on the Wanderer, Harvester and Explorer. All were great, but my favorites were Capt William & first Mate Johnny (Wanderer) and the Captain Alex with first mate Kevin (Harvester).”
“We fished mostly ballyhoo with circle hooks offshore and all crews knew how to fish. Almost every captain spoke English too… which really helps. My favorite was when we found some bonito and slow trolled them for the marlin, larger sailfish and inshore for cubera.”
“Don’t be fooled by the rainy season… it produces offshore as well. Rooster fish were very hard to find and may be better other seasons. I do not hesitate in recommending this group for a great fishing trip.”
“If you are looking to fish large sportfish boats with A/C…. this is not your trip. But if you want to catch the same quality and quantity of fish for 1/3 of the price… this is the trip. I can’t wait to book my next trip!”
“PS – lunch was included for our trips and was fantastic. Cooked by the local ladies and in classic Costa Rica style. Water and fresh fruit included too… just bring the beer, the sunscreen and the gopro / cameras!!”
Ryan Miles finished off his week of legendary fishing action with a great inshore/offshore day on the mega panga Harvester.
Early in the trip young Mr. Miles nailed this beefy Cubera Snapper.
With the meat fish on ice, Captain Alex headed offshore to round up some sweet Sailfish releases.
Great work by Captain Alex and the mega panga!
Brandon and Lindsay Overbay took to the Adventurer for a great day off inshore fishing on July 29, highlighted by a trio of MASSIVE Cubera Snappers:
They also nabbed a nice Rock Snapper, very similar to the Cubera but with a lighter shade of red and a different fin pattern.
Captain David is a fish catching machine and he can not be stopped on the 23-foot switchblade.
There aren’t many places on Earth where can you score trophy fish releases both near-shore and off-shore on the same trip.
Scott and Linda McAnally found out that one of those place is in Nosara, as long as you’re on the Wanderer!
Great work by the King of Garza Bay!
HOLY MOLY! Check out this monster Yellowfin Tuna scored by client Ryan Miles on the battleship Discoverer.
6.4 ft long, 4.4 ft wide, and God knows how many pounds.
Captain Carlos and Mate Juan Carlos Jirรณn have done it again!
Ryan Miles continued his hot streak on July 27 with Captain William reporting a sweet Sailfish release backed up by some late day Yellowfin Tuna action.
Once again Captain William delivers the goods for a great client.
After a giant day of Sailfish releases on the Mega Panga, Paul Reynolds group moved up to the flagship and Captain William led them from Sailfish City to the land of El Dorado!
These MASSIVE Mahi-Mahi are a welcome treat…always great to have lots of filets on ice.
Later in the day the Wanderer lined up a run at more Sailfish, with Mate Johnson successfully billing and releasing this nice monster:
