The Wanderer stayed inshore with Shirley Smith’s group and delivered beautiful Rooster Fish action.
These beasts put a lot of strain on our Penn Slammers, but the gold reels held up to the fight.
Another fantastic month of action on the Rio Nosara.
Our our buddy Cumi scored this excellent Robalo to kick of the month.
Of course the Hernadez boys scored a bunch of excellent fish on a nightime expedition.
Javier, Grevan, and young Dario certainly brought home the bacon on this night.
Also this monster Snapper was hauled in by local man Clemente:
But by far the most impressive catch of the month was this grande Robalo scored by local man Cuinco:
The flagship had a brief 2.5 hour trip on the morning of June 14, but it was long enough for this little dude to bring home the bacon.
Richard Moran and his family kept their hot streak going on the Explorer with a great variety of filets in the fishbox.
Richard scored this delicious Yellowfin Tuna to go along with this massive Wahoo:
The rounded out the buffet with a small Dorado and a big Yellowtail:
Great work by the barroom brawler!
Captain Carlos is scoring big on the Explorer, and on June 12 he took a trio of young anglers for a ride to Sailfish City.
These releases are all excellent accomplishments for these youngsters.
“The day was all about perseverance,” writes Patrick Vincent. “It was a little disheartening to see a giant blue marlin smash the teaser before we even had a bait in the water this morning. Then there was a slow morning bite.
Minutes after my afternoon nap, we were rewarded with a double header of sailfish. We quickly released twin 100lb Pacific sails.
Later in the day, we got to see one hell of a show. 200lb yellowfin tuna crashing sardines on the surface. I’ve never seen anything like 200lb yellow torpedoes going airborne while feeding!
What a great note to end our fishing on!
Well, the father/son billfish beatdown in Costa Rica has come to a close. We finished the week with 1 blue marlin, 2 striped marlin, and 11 sailfish. I’m back in Atlanta safe and sound, I guess it’s time to go back to the real world.
WAAAAHHHHOOOOO!!!
The Adventurer snagged three Silver Bullets on June 12, with the big one clocking in well over 30 lbs.
This is one of the best-tasting filets in our stretch of ocean and everyone was all smiles with these scores.
Mike Burling’s boys scored the biggest Dorado of the month on a wonderful June 11 trip with Captain William on the Wanderer.
This monster will definately keep the crew fed!
They also hooked up a nice Sailfish to round out the day.
Our great friend Richard Moran and his family took to the Discoverer for a fun day of Sailfish action.
Great to see such a pretty fish for this Jacksonville, FL fishing family!
Later in the day the battlewagon squeezed in a 2.5 hour Sunset trip and still found a Sailfish!
It don’t get much better than that!
The big boats were busy so Team Vincent chose the 23-foot Adventurer for some inshore action on June 11.
Their day broke with a big surprise…in nice Pacific Sailfish had wandered in less than 3 miles from shore.
“Some offshore fish crashed our inshore party,” Patrick reports. “We went 1 for 5 on sailfish, then scored two small yellowfin tuna, a mahi, 3 bonitos, a cubera snapper, a mullet snapper, and a jack.”
“Nice day on a small inshore boat.”
