Two-time FishingNosara Hall of Famers Rick Blackburn and Chuck Harris have returned to Nosara for a frenzied week of fishing

They got off to a great start with the Wanderer on June 16 with a fantastic pair of Sailfish releases.

Though Rick and Chuck have bested many billfish with us, this is the first releases for these new members of their group. Let’s hope this is the first of many for these guys.

Two great catches by the Good Doctors backed up by two safe releases by the Wanderer‘s fearless crew!

Wayne Hopkins snagged a legendary Blue Marlin release on June 12 with the mighty Wanderer.

Wayne has fished out of Garza for years, first appearing in our fishing report in 2010 with a nice Sailfish release.

Clearly this massive Marlin is a new high-water mark for Mr. Hopkins. Great work by Captain William and First Mate Alex on this wonderful release!

Sergio’s group stayed hot on June 9! The Wanderer and Discoverer seized upon a bait ball frenzy near shore scored a ton of fun-fightin’ Rainbow Runnner, some with decent size to them.

The big one of the group came late in the day as both boats were just about to pull up anchors and head for home…goes to show why you always leave a bait in the water, even when your are packing up!

The great fishing continues for Captain Sergio Atanes’ Costa Rica Adventure group. On June 8 the Discoverer welcomed Jack Walker, Alice Trautman, Sue Garcia and Beverly Lanier for some great inshore action. 

A great trio of Cubera Snappers is the perfect filet haul to keep the party going on shore.

Great catches by Captain David!

Sergio’s group of Tampa anglers have found excellent action on the inshore reefs outside Garza Bay. On June 8 the Wanderer scored this excellent specimen of Rooster Fish:

We released this beauty as usual, but this group didn’t leave empty-handed. They got this monster Pinfish, and also released a small Dorado…c’mon back when you’re 50lbs. buddy!

The Wanderer welcomed Jack Walker, Sue Garcia, Beverly Lanier, Alice Trautman, plus Ray and Terrie Overholser for a great trip to the blue water.

Captain William stalked a school of feeding Dolphins out to the feeding grounds, and the blue beauty set up shop on top of a feeding frenzy.

This Sailfish release broke the ice and was a great sign of things to come. The crew nabbed this beefy 40+lbs. Yellowfin tuna fresh after the billfish release.

The real highlight was this 60+lbs. Dorado. Everyone wanted a picture with this monster which took several hands for the lift.

Great work by this posse of Captain Sergio’s Costa Rica Adventurers!
