Captain Fico and theย Explorer closed out the month of April with a flurry of great catches.
In addition to a bunch of nice Sailfish releases, the barroom brawler upped the ante with a Double Sailfish release.
Add to that a bunch of big Dorados and Yellowfin Tunas…who says you need a big boat to catch big fish in Costa Rica?
Theย Discoverer welcomed angler Hugh Coleman on the 16th for a fun half-day offshore.
Big Dorados kept the rods bent, and a late-day Sailfish release is great for the photo album.
Captain Alex shined again on the 13th with a trip highlighted by this monster Dorado.
The mega panga added a pair of Sailfish releases for the trophy case.
Great work by theย Harvester.ย
Our good friend Curtis Webb of Northeast Florida performed brilliantly on the 13th, with Captain Carlos reporting several Sailfish releases.

After missing the podium by one fish, Captain Alex responded with the intensity and fervor that make theย Harvester the true People’s Champion.
While the other boats were onshore prepping for the after-party, theย Harvester struck hard with a wonderful Blue Marlin release.

364 days untl the next tournament, and the mega panga is already getting preppared!
Mike Loughrey and theย Harvester scored big on March 18. The highlight was this floor-sweeping monster Dorado.
They augmented this catch with some smaller Yellowfin Tunas and a nice Sailfish release.
“Great time in Nosara last week,” Mike wrote via email. “Casa Neptune is a great spot for a couple folks. Thanks for everything. Fishing with Alex and Wilson was epic! Freddy, Javier, Mary, Alex & Yoseph were great to be with.”
The photos from Bob Pease’s mid-March 2021 trip have surfaced, and they are worth the wait. Check out this monster Dorado:
Over their three-day campaign, they nabbed a bunch of Sailfish releases.

Captain Alex took theย Harvester way offshore on the 14th, and Kevin Shimp’s family was ready for the long ride into battle.
Steve Shimp fought an active high-flyer, and then young Josie countered with a Sailfish release of her own.
Big Dorados and Yellowfin Tunas rounded out the haul.
Great work by these Southwest Florida anglers and the mega pangaย Harvester.

Great work by the mega panga and the Shimp family.
