The Wanderer welcomed Drew Cooper and his group on the 28th for a fierce day of Sailfish action.
These ladies KO’d five nice Sailfish on this trip.
Great hunting by Captain William to keep these monsters cornered.
Add in four clean safe releases by Mate Johnson and you got the perfect day of fish-catching!
The Adventurer pulled off an incredible day inshore on March 27. This monster Jack Crevelle topped the scorecard:
Later in the trip they also nabbed two big Snappers.
After warming up on Harvester and Explorer, Larry Komenda and Misti Nolan joined Ken and Brenda Russell. They returned to the Wanderer and they meant business!
First on the hook was this fat Wahoo…steaks all around!
Great catch by Larry Komenda:
This is a true floor-sweeper, evidenced by this photo of Mate Johnson trying to keep her off the deck.
Ken was next up on the reel and scored this sweet Sailfish release.
The ladies were up next and got acquainted with some real high-flyers.
They finished off the day with a fifth Sailfish release.

After a trip to the fish market, Laura and Mike headed offshore to find Sailfish City. Captain William led the way and the Wanderer proceeded to score big.
After the first two releases Mike Neeland added to his swollen Sailfish scorecard, and then Laura followed up with a nice fish of her own.
The big hit of the day with this small Striped Marlin; while not the biggest fish we’ve ever seen, this little Stripey still fought like a tiger.
Returning angler Laura Lanoue and her posse got their week of fishing off to a rollicking good start with some sweet Yellowfin Tuna scored on the Wanderer.

We always encourage our clients to fish on the first day because it’s always nice to get some filets in the fridge at the beginning of the week.
We expect Laura and Mike’s group to continue their excellent fishing this week.
Andrew Oblinger and his kids nailed a few nice Rooster fish on an afternoon half day with Captain Alex on the Harvester.
All Roosters were live released, just the way we like it.
Brandon Petry and his group of hardened anglers lit up the scorecard with four Sailfish releases on the battleship Discoverer.
Nice fish handling by Mate Carlos led to safe releases.
Our old buddy Chuck Darner returned to Garza Bay to take the newly-launched Harvester for a spin and he managed to nab an excellent Sailfish release.
Great job by this legendary Jacksonville, FL angler.
Captain David continued his great inshore fishing with great action on March 17.
This big Amberjack was the monster of the trip, which also included this big Black Tuna:
The Discoverer welcomed the latest in a long line of CCA Texas anglers as Steve Gasaway scored some excellent Sailfish releases, highlighted by this sweet Double Release:
After that awesome achievement, the kids got in on the action:
Big smiles and big fish on the big battleship!
