Charlie Phillips stayed inshore today and knocked a big Rooster Fish off of his bucket list.
This catch as been a long time coming for this Everglades angler, and we are stoked to see this accomplishment.
The group also added tasty filets for the dinner table in the form of three nice Snappers and a pile of Yellowfin Tuna.
Looking good in the ice box and on the dinner plate!
The Wanderer is closing in on the final bell of the season like a thoroughbred and clients like Charlie Phillips’ group are feeling pumped to be along for the ride.
On August 13 scored two more wonderful Sailfish release for this Florida-based fishing posse.
For Kim Ponzio, this was her first ever billfish release and she fought it well all the way to the boat.
Great releases by First Mate Alex underscored Captain William’s keen hunting instincts as once again the flagship delivers the goods!
Captain Fico has been on fire this month on the Adventurer. He is building a reputation as a consistent fish-catcher and his clients are reaping the rewards.
This nice family scored an Amberjack and a small Snapper, and the next day Yellowfin Tuna was on the menu:
Late in the week this trio knocked out a pair of Yellowfin Tunas and a nice Amberjack.
Charlie and the boys kept the pedal to the metal on the Wanderer with a fantastic outing that included SIX Sailfish releases and a beefy Dorado for the refrigerator.
Captain William found the Sailfish were thick as cordwood just a few miles out, and First Mate Alex put out an irresistible spread for the monsters.
Great safe releases on all six fish, but this big Dorado ain’t going anywhere except on ice!
Exceptional fishing from the King of Garza Bay.
Charlie Phillips and his crew are back, and they wasted little time in breaking the billfish ice.
Captain William found a massive school of spinning porpoises and we know what that means: big billfish are near!
Great start to the week by the mighty flagship!
Captain Carlos scored huge this week with a quartet of Sailfish releases backed up with nice White Tunas on ice.
The Explorer has been on fire this year and while the rest of the boats are eyeing their September vacation, the barroom brawler is looking forward to a great ‘off-season’ of continued action.
August 8 was a fantastic day on the Wanderer for Team Gerzeny. First up was a crazy Sailfish release for Mike Gerzeny…the video on this one is one wild ride:
Then, the rains came:
Captain Zack Gerzeny and young Christopher Gerzeny showed no fear in the face of the storm, each registering big Sailfish releases.
Great work by the Master Captain William and the unstoppable First Mate Alex to brave big billfish and whistling winds to bring home the big ones for their clients.
Captain Fico has propelled the 23-foot Adventurer to new heights since taking over command back in May, and his recent performances have everyone excited about his future on the FishingNosara team.
This father son duo enjoyed a sweet Yellowfin Tuna, then a few days later Fico doubled the feat and added a massive Amberjack.
Recently the Adventurer welcomed Arturo for a little company research and they filled the icebox with a combined 80lbs. of Amberjack.
Great catches by the sneaky pocket knife Adventurer.
Team Gerzeny scored this whopper of a Cubera Snapper during a inshore trip on the Wanderer:
The Wanderer stayed inshore with Doug and Andrew and scored a nice Snapper for the icebox.
They also fought a medium-sized Rooster Fish all the way to the boat, but First Mate Alex felt it was too weakened to be brought into the boat, so they released him alongside.
Another marked-up scorecard by Doug Dickman and Andrew Queral.
