Kathleen Clarke came to us as a novice angler, but after her trip on the Discoverer she has cut her teeth as a big-time blue water angler.

These Sailfish put on a great show and the releases were quick and easy.

She wrote us a very nice email:

“Just wanted to let you know that we had an incredibly amazing time on our fishing trip. ย I donโ€™t think that it could have been any better. ย Captain Carlos and Kevin were stellar – I would highly recommend that crew to anyone. ”

“All 5 in our party caught fish and we were not expecting to. ย Kevin kept the boat very clean and tidy and made sure that we all had everything that we needed. ย Lunch was excellent also, as was the fruit. ย We caught a mix of mahi-mahi and sailfish. We saw porpoises and turtles too.”

“Thanks so much!!!”

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!
