The Harvester turned in a full scorecard on December 22. Our old friend David Mackenzie and his group scored six BIG Dorados and a quartet of Sailfish releases.
All the Sailfish were safe released as always.
Slow down boys…we gotta filet them before we eat them!

Brad Smith scored a 40lbs. Dorado on December 12. Look at Captain Wilson with this monster:
He also scored this wonderful Sailfish release. What a beauty!

The season is so young, but we already have our first sure-fire, first ballot FishingNosara Hall of Fame inductee:
This amazing 50+lbs. Dorado was scored by Andrew Mendenhall’s group on December 6. This monster was the largest of nine Dorados caught.
The Discoverer also added a Striped Marlin release and two Sailfish releases.
On any other day this level of billfish action would be an excellent performance, but the mega Mahi-Mahi makes this a day to remember.

The flagship Wanderer welcomed our great friend Tod Alberto’s family for a nice day of action on November 8.
Dorado were thick throughout the morning, and Tod answered the bell with the big one of the day:
They added variety to the filet bag with a football-sized Yellowfin Tuna.

Our good friends Doug and Barbara Levalley returned for a quick 5 day trip in late August. On their first day fishing the Discoverer gave them all the filets they can eat plus some to take home:
A super-size Dorado was backed up with a beefy Yellowfin Tuna. Awesome job by Captain Carlos!

Avid outdoorsman Juan Levesque returned for a bout of blue water fishing on August 17.
The Explorer found that MONSTER Dorado were all over the place and took advantage of these late-season beauties.

Central Florida angler Mark Shugg stepped up the Harvester on August 9 and boat a MONSTER Dorado:
Young Mr. Shugg scored a ‘small’ Dorado, but it’s only small compared to the first fish.
This Wahoo is legitimately small (for us, at least) but will filet up into a pair of tasty white-meat steak all the same.

On August 7, Ryan Lampasona returned to the Harvester and upped the ante with an excellent Blue Marlin release.
This is the third world-class trophy release in two days for this group, and all that reeling can work up an appetite. Fortunately, a MONSTER Dorado and several nice Yellowfin Tunas will hit the spot.
