Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara
Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
The Adventurer welcomed Jose Luis Barzuna on February 9 and this guy was on the fish early and often.
This small fish were a nice icebreaker, but the true fish-of-a-lifetime came calling in the afternoon:
Wow! That is a grande Sailfish even by Costa Rica standards. Estimated by Captain Carlos at over 150lbs., this monster was safely released as usual.
Amazing action from the awesome Adventurer!
Harris Savin took the Adventurer offshore today and was rewarded with a fine Pacific Sailfish release. Seeing the mountains less than 5 miles from shore reminds us that the 1600 ft ledge is not out of reach for the 23-foot switchblade.
This excellent release was followed up a pair of 25lbs. Dorados for the dinner table.
The final score of the day was this magnificent Rooster fish release:
Great action on just a half day trip…it’s what we have come to expect from Captain Carlos and the Adventurer.
Ben James and Captain Carlos released the biggest Rooster Fish of the year on board the Adventurer on February 3.
We have full video of the battle with this monster, and will have it all edited and posted in due time. Estimated at 70+lbs., this beast was revived and released; we hope to see him again soon.
Sonny Strohl and his buddies turned in an excellent day of action with Captain Carlos on the Adventurer. They stayed close to shore and scored a nice Dorado and a few tasty Yellowfin Tunas.
Pretty sweet filets on ice for Sonny and the boys, thanks to the 23-foot pocket knife.
Scott Wright enlisted Captain Carlos of the Adventurer for a half-day trip to the blue water break and their expeditionary spirit was rewarded with this thick Dorado.
Excellent dining tonight for this couple!
Michael Heilman caught some monsters on board the Adventurer today. This Cubera Snapper is a big boy!
They also got a pair of Dorados including this MASSIVE Mahi:
That’s definately two-armloads of fish for this fella!
Franz Iwancsich hails from Austria and on his trip to Costa Rica signed up the Adventurer for a few days on the blue water. Captain Carlos delivered the goods with lots of hot action.
The highlight was this beefy Dorado which was backed up with a wide array of smaller reef fish. Nice work by the 23-foot panga.
David Grandell and his boy were throwing haymakers at all comers with Captain Carlos on the Adventurer! They started out with a big Dorado:
Then set to work on a team of football-sized Yellowfin Tuna.
For the knockout punch they landed this whopping Cubera Snapper.
Great work by the 23-foot switchblade the Adventurer!
Another fantastic Sailfish releases for the 23-foot Adventurer. Check out this blue water beastie:
Later in the day these boys added a 15-20lbs. Dorado for the dinner table.
Excellent work all around by Captain Carlos and these kids.
Mike Burling and his group split up today between the Explorer and the Adventurer but just because it was panga day doesn’t mean they didn’t head offshore.
Check out these fine blue water specimens roped in by Mike on the Explorer
After the Sailfish release they also capitalized on the bite with a nice Wahoo and Dorado on ice.
Nice trophy release and meat for the fridge? Just another great day by Captain David and Mate Kevin on the Explorer.
Captain Carlos had nice action over on the Adventurer, with this 25lbs. Dorado as the highlight:
