The Discoverer welcomed anglers Douglas Gawthrop and Tom Hacker for an action-packed morning half day on January 12.

The Wanderer delivered a great inshore experience for the Christine Franz group on January 5. First order of business was to acquire live-bait, and this 5lbs. Bonita fit the bill perfectly.

Safe released as always, this tactic proves again why Captain William is a true master!
Greg Patts had a monster day on the Harvester with multiple big Yellowfin Tunas reported on January 3.
Captain Alex is one of our most experienced boatmen and these Yella fellas provided a perfect opportunity to continue the training of our newest Mate Wilson.

Great work by the mega panga!

The action on December 31 was a little slow in the morning on the Explorer, but angler Steve Mears showed his dedication with this late-day Cubera Snapper.
