Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara
Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
The brother combo of Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin makes fishing on the Explorer a family affair, so what better place to bring the kids for an introduction to blue water fishing.
Decked out in her new FishingNosara hat, this little angler scored a big Sailfish with the super panga.
They released a few more Sails throughout this very memorable day on the water.
Client Tony King rolled into town and fished his very first afternoon on board the barroom brawler, and sure enough he picked a fight with the biggest mofo in the place!
What a great Marlin!
Clearly Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin are dialed-in and their amazing scorecards are proving the point.
Safe released so we can expect to fight this monster again really soon!
Captain Fico never lets clients leave empty-handed…the action was slow on May 14 but the Adventurer still scored some small Dorados.
They may not look like much in these pictures, but trust me they look fine once grilled and drizzled with butter, garlic, and lime!
The Explorer has continued her hot streak during mid-May with a run of Hall of Fame worthy performance. First Captain Carlos scored this ridiculous Dorado with client Gary Fiveash:
Then they backed it up with a nice pair of Sailfish releases:
I love seeing the big Dorado tail jutting out of the fishbox…even Igloo doesn’t make coolers big enough for that Mahi!
Our old buddy Jay Thompson returned for another crack at the inshore reefs and he scored a nice trio of big Snappers.
Captain Fico always finds the fish for his clients.
The Discovererย found excellent action on May 12 with Georgia angler Glenn Schatzel.
In addition to three Yellow fin tunas they also scored two Sailfish releases.
Bob Carton put the finishing touch on a great week of fishing with a run of nice Sailfish releases.
The Wanderer also scored an excellent pair of Dorados for the dinner table.
Talk about a great end-of-week feast!
Captain Fico didn’t have to take the 23-foot Adventurer far in order to score a whopper of a Wahoo.
It’s great to see young anglers besting big fish…great work by the Adventurer.
Captain David brought the house down with a two Marlin day on May 10.
Client Tony King and his group scored a small Striped Marlin estimated around 200lbs. and a larger Blue Marlin estimated at more than 350lbs.
They added a Sailfish to the scorecard to round-out a legendary day of fishing.
Great job by the battleship Discoverer!
More great Sailfish action on the flagship on May 9 with client Tony King.
This high-flyer put on a show for Tony, and the mighty Wanderer kept the pressure on all the way to a safe release.
