Our old friend George Shipley returned to the blue waters of Garza hoping for a repeat of his excellent performance on the Explorer back in February 2011. With his young son in tow, Mr. Shipley opted for the more spacious Wanderer and once again he was face-to-face with a mighty pacific billfish.

This Pacific Sailfish weighs about 135lbs. and is a wonderful example of the beasts that lurk just a few miles off of our shores. Great work by the crew to ensure the safe release of this majestic beast.

Lots of Groupers today on the Wanderer. A group of yogis took a 2.5 hour morning trip on the flagship and caught 4 Red Groupers each weighing over 15lbs.

On an afternoon 2.5 hour trip client Patrick and his group caught another pair of Red Grouper weighing about 12lbs. each.

Nice fishing on a day where the green water and full moon might scare away less adaptable fisherman…Captain William delivers another memorable performance despite some long odds.

Captain David kept the Explorer inshore today with client Brandon Perez and his wife. They enjoyed lots of rod-bendin’ action highlighted by a big Yellowtail Snapper and a nice Jack Crevalle.

They added a small White Tuna later on and had a big Rooster fish hooked to a topwater plug, but lost him. Excellent catches though from these South Florida anglers.

Another fantastic trip for Captain David on the Explorer. These clients are just the latest to go home with fat tasty Red Grouper filets. We’ve had lots of great reports on this species which is usually quite rare. Take a look at these monsters:

While passing time between trips, Mate Carlos chopped up some old ballyhoos and fed them to his pet Rooster fish. Carlos has been feeding this fella for years going back to his days as a mate on the Sportsman and has never set the hook into it.

It is a real treat to watch this majestic creature so close to the boat, so if you have a few minutes to spare before your next trip on the Explorer then make sure to ask to meet Carlos’ pet Rooster Fish.

Isabel Fernandez comes to Nosara from a lovely little South Florida fishing village that is just a few blocks from the IGFA Hall of Fame. Floridan anglers are certainly no stranger to productive days on the water, and the afternoon of March 8 was another day at the office for these Sunshine Staters.

First up was the tasty and elusive Congrio, known for it’s excellent white meat. Then these Floridians really piled the fishbox with a swath of tasty Grouper.

Most importantly, everyone has a great time and has big smiles to show for it…another great trip by the Wanderer.

Jon Infanti brought a whole swarm of folks down to Nosara this week and on March 7 booked the Wanderer, Explorer, and Sportsman for a full-on fishing party. The full moon brought some brackish green water in close to shore, but the Captains of FishingNosara know how to overcome obstacles like bad water.

All three boats caught fish, with the Sportsman and Captain Eduardo leading the way with 7 Red Groupers.

The Wanderer kept pace with three nice Red Groupers as well as multiple Jack Crevalles for the fish box.

The Explorer stayed a little closer to shore and scored a nice Red Grouper and five tasty Congrios.

All told these folks put a nice hurtin’ on the meat fish and should have enough filets to feed even the largest dinner party. Excellent work by some folks who certainly know how to have a good time on the water.
