Adventurer | Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara

March 17, 2019

Captain David and the indomitable Adventurer continue to fish hard during the month of March. On the 17th he kept the rods bent with these nice Jack Crevelles.

Ceviche, anyone?

We always say that you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish in Costa Rica, and angler JC Mas proved that point with Captain David on the 23-foot Adventurer with this excellent Sailfish release on March 12:

Tiller-steer panga boat catching world-class billfish? Only in Nosara!

Our old pal Scott Hed posted a banner day with Captain David on the 11th. His inshore haul was highlighted by this massive Dorado:

Thay also boated several more nice Mahi-Mahi filets for the dinner table.

FishingNosara Hall of Famer and Northeast FishingNosara Representative Mark Cooney pulled off an amazing fishing feat with Captain David on January 18th…what, you’ve never battled a Sailfish on a 23-foot panga with a tiller-steered motor?

Then he grabbed a second Sailfish!

Backed up by lots of great Dorado, this is a picture-perfect day for the Adventurer!

Jeff Capen made history on the Adventurer on January 15 with the SECOND EVER Marlin release on the panga.

This Blue Marlin release is a magnificent achievement on any boat, let alone the sneaky switchblade.

They also nabbed a few nice Dorados for the dinner table.

Aussie angler Jeremy West knocked out some inshore monsters on January 8. The biggest scores of the day were these nice Dorados.

Also they filled the coolers with tasty Red Groupers. These inshore delicacies are a welcome treat and a sweet addition to the menu.

Captain David got the year started off right on the 23-foot Adventurer with angler Kirk Bromfield reporting a sweet Sailfish release backed up with several nice Dorados.

That’s right…down here you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish.

Awesome work by the 23-foot switchblade.

Captain David fished every day from December 20 to the 28th, and scored a wide variety of great fish for his clients.

Yellowfin Tunas were in the mix, even though we aren’t anywhere close to their peak season. Its a great sign to see these football-sized Yella Fellas this close to shore, and this early in the year.

An array of Jack Crevelles and Rock Snappers made sure that ceviche would be on the Christmas dinner table.

Big Dorados have been in the area all month and while most boats found them 10 miles offshore, the crafty Adventurer nabbed several monsters that wandered too close to shore.
