Captain William has a long history of delivering great results, and he was tracked down by some of his former clients from the pre-Wanderer days. This couple rejoined the Master Captain for a full day trip and turned in an astounding performance.

First up with this big Blue Marlin release. On it’s own this is a true fish-of-a-lifetime, but for these anglers it was just the tip of the iceberg.

Fresh of the Marlin release was a slew of tasty Dorados.

Then they a sweet Sailfish release for a send-off.

That’s an outstanding day of action from the baddest boat in the bay, the Wanderer with Master Captain William.

The battleship Discoverer deliver the fish-of-a-lifetime for Al Santiesteban and his family on their final fishing day:

This monster Blue Marlin is an angling accomplishment that many travel the world’s oceans in pursuit of, and the excitement generate by this catch can’t be overstated.

As has become their habit, this fishing family added a few more Sailfish to their scorecard later in the trip, rounding out an excellent week of fishing action.

 

 

 

Al has already booked a return trip in late-March and we expect another fantastic performance upon his return.

Charlie Phillips’ posse saved the best for last, as on their final day of fishing on the Wanderer they scored a DOUBLE MASSIVE Marlin release.

We have some great video of this beast so look out for the full account on the next FishingNosara DVD due out this month.

The crew also added to their pile of filets…after a great day inshore on the 14th, they caught a whole bunch of filets to take home on the 15th.

Dominic Licari brought his hard-fishin’ crew down from West Palm Beach, FL and they logged three solid days of fishing on the mighty Wanderer.

The highlight of their trips came on June 24:

This Blue Marlin is estimated at 400lbs. and she put up everyone ounce of fight she could muster.

This South Florida team also notched a pair of Sailfish releases, backed up by a few nice Yellowfin Tunas.

Great work by Captain William and First Mate Alex on the famous flagship!

The infamous Wanderer struck again on July 20! Clients Sebastien and Rene Bire took the blue beauty offshore for a 5 hour trip and scored a MASSIVE Blue Marlin!

The combinations of Captain William’s expert boat handling and First Mate Alex’ angler coordination in the cockpit spelled doom for this mighty billfish.

Released alive and well after the photos, this Blue Monster is certainly the fish of a lifetime for the Bire posse.

“This fishing trip was my first and it was amazing, got surrounded by almost 500 dolphins at first and then they got us at the right spot to bring out a 450pound Blue marlin! The team was really nice and the boat was perfect. Amazing day out, thanks FishingNosara!”

Wayne Hopkins snagged a legendary Blue Marlin release on June 12 with the mighty Wanderer.

Wayne has fished out of Garza for years, first appearing in our fishing report in 2010 with a nice Sailfish release.

Clearly this massive Marlin is a new high-water mark for Mr. Hopkins. Great work by Captain William and First Mate Alex on this wonderful release!

Captain David has brought his decades of fish-finding skills to the new battleship, and the results have been immediate and astounding. On May 28 he locked up two big bad billfish for his clients.

Mate Kevin released this Sailfish at 10:30am (above) and scored a nice Blue Marlin just after 1pm.

The Discoverer has come out of the gate like a thoroughbred and we can’t wait to see more multiple Marlin mania from the battleship.

Dr. Bart Carey and his crew had a knock-out day on the Wanderer with not one, not two, but THREE Marlin releases.

The second Marlin came hot of the heels of the first, with only 45 minutes between releases.

They scored this tasty Dorado for the fishbox:

The final send-off was this amazing above-the-water Marlin fight. Check the action on this beast:

Great safe releases by First Mate Alex underscore another magnificent performance by Captain William and the famous Wanderer.
