Captain Carlos has the Discoverer on pace to be the most consistent fish-catcher in the area, and on December 29 continued on his hot streak with a lovely pair of Sailfish releases:
Safe handling by Mate Juan Carlos means we’ll see these Sailfish again soon…great work by the battleship!
Michael Koerner and his family scored a swarm of Sailfish releases with Captain Carlos on December 22.
The whole family got in on the action, with safe releases performed by Mate Juan Carlos after the photos.
Great work by the Discoverer!
The Discoverer welcome Trevor Pilipchuk for some inshore fishing action and he snagged this excellent Cubera Snapper:
Yummy filets on the way!
Hall of Famer Harris ‘El Matador’ Savinย scored a bunch of nice billfish releases on the Discoverer
Safe releases by Mate Juan Carlos.
Eric Dixon continued his light tackle fishing fiesta on the Discoverer with a nice Sailfish release backed up by some tasty Tunas.
Nice work by the boys on these yummy Yella Fellas!
Once again all of these fish were caught from a dead boat with 20lbs. spinning tackle…awesome!
Eric Dixon found a new way to challenge himself after his blistering tear of Marlin releases…how does fighting Pacific Sailfish on spinning rod with 20lbs. line sound for a challenge?
Mr. Dixon accomplished just that not once, but twice on December 1st on the Discoverer.
Fighting fish like this with ultra-light tackle from a dead-drift takes a light touch and a lot of skill, no doubt developed by Eric in the rivers around his home in Colorado.
Great accomplishment by Eric Dixon and the Discoverer.
After mastering trophy billfish releases on the 28th, Eric Dixon and the big battleship Discoverer turned their attention to the dinner table with several super-sized Yellowfin Tunas on ice.
The Yella Fellas have been thick this month and although none of these top Wayne Estes’ monster from earlier this week, these catches combined make for the biggest total haul of tasty filets we’ve seen so far this season.
They also added another Sailfish release to the scorecard later in the trip:
Great work by Captain Carlos and the unstoppable Eric Dixon.
Eric Dixon continues his dominance of the blue water with a monstrous Marline release reported on November 28 by Captain Carlos on the Discoverer.
Estimated at 250lbs.-300lbs., this beast was safely released by Mate Juan Carlos so we expect to catch her again once she gets even bigger.
Later in the day the Dixon boys pulled of an awesome Double Sailfish release, once again featuring expert fish-handling by Juan Carlos.
Our old pal Eric Dixon is back in Nosara and he scored several Sailfish releases on the first of several days fishing on the Discoverer.
This Colorado-based angler is a hardcore fisherman and we expect great action for him this whole week.
Off to a great start!
The battleship Discoverer broke the ice for the team with the first Marlin release of the season on November 24 with client Delton Hollmann.
Great work by Captain Carlos and Mate Juan Carlos on this beautiful billfish release!
