Local legend Alban Rodriguez joined Captain David on the Adventurer and KO’d a pair of big Amberjacks:

The Wanderer pulled double-duty on December 26 with two half-days scheduled with two sets of clients.

First up was Chris Carroll who opted to stay near-shore in the morning.



A pair of Rooster fish releases were the highlight of the morning, with a beefy Amberjack on ice to round out the scorecard:

The inshore madness continued on April 2 as the flagship pulled myriad species of fish up from the shallow reefs.



Fresh of his great river mouth scores of Snook, client Mike Loughrey and his group scored Jack Crevelles, Amberjack, and the elusive Blue Jack Crevelles.



With four experienced anglers on deck, First Mate Alex got the rare opportunity to see how the client’s usually feel…that is, sitting back and watching some pro anglers fill the fishbox:

The Explorer closed out the month on a strong run of Sailfish releases.



















The more trips that Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin run, the more they mark-up the scorecard with Sailfish releases.
Clearly these guys are sharpening their skills to a razor’s edge.






















There was also lots of other species to brag about on the Super Panga. Check out these beastly Rooster fish releases:





Captain Carlos also reports a good array of Dorado and Amberjack.




The Adventurer scored an Amberjack for the record books on March 15. Look at the girth on this monster:

We say it all the time, you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish in Nosara! Great work by Captain Fico and the switchblade Adventurer.
Jacksonville’s own Hank Duckworth joined the mighty Wanderer for a half day trip, and like all our Northeast Florida anglers he tore it up on the formerly Mayport-flagged vessel.
They started off inshore with this excellent Amberjack:


Then Captain William headed to Sailfish City and Hank was ready to crank in a monster:



They added two more Sailfish near the end of the five hour trip.



Safe releases by First Mate Alex was the perfect end to a great trip for Hank Duckworth.

Yellowfin Tuna and Amberjack were on the menu for the Adventurer on March 9, with beefy filets on ice for these smiling clients.


Great job Captain Fico!
The Wanderer changed things up on March 4 by staying inshore and plying the reefs just outside Garza Bay.

A nice Rooster fish release was the first fish of the day, safe released like always.


Fast on the heels of this pez gallo release was another Rooster fish, this one much bigger than the first.


The third Rooster was the biggest of them all…check out the fight in the feathered fish!





Near the end of the trip they boated this MASSIVE Amberjack.



Great inshore action on the famous Wanderer!
The Discoverer has been on a billfish-battling mission this month and on November 28 welcomed Al Santiesteban’s family along with Craig Sutton and Danny ‘Shake n Bake’ Baker for a great trip offshore.




They conquered five Pacific Sailfish, then turned their attention inshore where they bested a nice Dorado and a beefy Amberjack:


Great work all around from the crew of the battleship Discoverer!
Jacksonville’s own John ‘Porkchop’ Porcella knocked out a wide variety of sea life on board the Explorer, highlighted by this big Amberjack:



Later in the day they went offshore and roped a Double Sailfish release!




Excellent performance from Captain Carlos and the boat that doesn’t know the meaning of ‘off-season’!
