The Explorer started the month of June with a fantastic run of great catches. The Sailfish were thick offshore and the Super Panga was all over them.
Later in the week Captain Fico stayed inshore and filled the fish box with tasty filets of Dorado and Cubera Snapper.
While inshore, the legendary Explorer also scored several bucket-list caliber Rooster Fish releases.
Great work by the 26-foot barroom brawler!
The Wanderer engaged in close-quarters combat inshore with some of the biggest lunkers of the year so far…check out this MASSIVE Cubera Snapper that got things started:
Then they filled the trophy case with a pair of sweet Rooster Fish releases:
Great work by Captain William and the legendary Wanderer!
The Harvester is dialed-in and Captain Alex’ clients are reaping the rewards on the mega panga.
Craig Sutton joined the crew for an afternoon offshore and released a bunch of nice Sailfish.
They also nabbed this sweet Cubera Snapper late in the day. Captain Alex has been experimenting with shorter hooks to help land these monsters, and it looks to be paying off.
Sometimes the offshore bite ain’t happening, but the wily Captain Alex is deft enough to move inshore for world-class bottom fishing action.
Client Richard Shultz started out with a whopper of a Cubera Snapper, then scored a trophy-caliber Rooster fish.
Great work by the flexible Harvester!
Paul Ewald and his son Jackson had a wonderful run of catches on the Adventurer in early May, highlighted by several sweet Sailfish releases.
This is an amazing angling accomplishment, catching big Sails this close to shore in a small boat.
These South Florida fishermen also loaded the fishbox with multiple big Snappers.
The sun rose on another great month of inshore action on the Adventurer.
She scored the usual allotment of Cubera Snappers and Rock Snappers.
Then they added this tasty delicacy: the elusive Congrio:
The highlight of the month was this nice Sailfish caught just five miles from shore.
When the big fish wander too close the shore, the Adventurer will be waiting for them.
Great work on the catch and the safe release from the 23-foot pocket knife Adventurer.
Craig took to the Adventurer for a day of inshore action and scored this monster Cubera Snapper.
Great work by Captain David to hunt down this monster!
Captain David is a master of inshore fishing, as client Trevor Kennedy can testify after his trip on the Adventurer.
This monster Cubera Snapper was the highlight, and was backed up by a few nice Jack Crevelles.
Kevin Baumler had a big day with Captain David on the Adventurer.
Here’s what Kevin had to say:
“Very good fishing with Capt. David on 16th January!!!”
“Thanks for that great day catching 4 bonitos, 1 rooster and 1 Cubera!!!”
Tight lines

Our great friend Doc Hatton performed wonderfully on back to back fishing days in mid-January.
The first day they were offshore and released several nice Sailfish.
The next day they stayed inshore and scored one of the biggest Cubera Snappers of the year.
With nothing left to prove inshore, Captain William headed offshore following a pod of feeding Dolphins. Not surprisingly, they found more sweet Sailfish.
