For those still clinging to the old notion that the fishing in Costa Rica is not white-hot in July, please check out this July 22 trip from the Harvester with angler Carlyle Smith.

This monster Marlin was just the tip of the iceberg.

A big time Sailfish wasn’t far behind, and the mega panga was there to pull her in.

Another great Sailfish also found its way to the Harvester.

Normally a big day full of billfish releases would be all that you need, but why not add some big Dorado filets for the fishbox?

Oh and in case you are wondering, all of these catch came on just a 6.5 hour trip…imaging if they had gone for a full eight hours!

Our new friend Juan Levesque got off to a hot start in late July with a great day on the Explorer.

First up was this small Rooster Fish release.

Then the super panga headed offshore and pulled off a sweet Sailfish release.

They also put some excellent filets on ice, thanks to a pair of awesome Cubera Snappers.

Great work by Captain Fico and the barroom brawler Explorer!

The white-hot billfish bite continued on July 19 with Captain Alex reporting a mammoth day for angler Steve Balz and his boys. This monster Blue Marlin was the highlight of the trip:

The Marlin was backed-up by this great Sailfish release:

Of course the boys didn’t go home empty-handed, as a squad of tasty Dorados found their way to the fishbox.

Awesome work by the mega panga Harvester.
