FishingNosara Hall of Famers Catherine Chase and Ron LaGro added to their legend on January 19 with Captain William. This sweet Striped Marlin led off a great day of action:
After Catherine’s release, Ron added a super Sailfish release.
They rounded out the morning with a nice stack of Dorado filets.
FishingNosara Hall of Famer and Northeast FishingNosara Representative Mark Cooney pulled off an amazing fishing feat with Captain David on January 18th…what, you’ve never battled a Sailfish on a 23-foot panga with a tiller-steered motor?
Then he grabbed a second Sailfish!
Backed up by lots of great Dorado, this is a picture-perfect day for the Adventurer!
Becky Hogan’s group kept up the hot fishing action on January 18 with Captain Alex. This fun-loving group of Florida anglers scored big on Dorados.
Becky nabbed this monster late in the trip.
Jason Brosche and his group nabbed a nice variety of meat fish on the Wanderer on the 16th.
This nice Dorado has been par for the course recently, but his sneaky Wahoo will be an excellent addition to the dinner table.
Jeff Capen made history on the Adventurer on January 15 with the SECOND EVER Marlin release on the panga.
This Blue Marlin release is a magnificent achievement on any boat, let alone the sneaky switchblade.
They also nabbed a few nice Dorados for the dinner table.
Mary Jane Shanklin was back in action on the 15th, and this time they added to their Dorado scored from early in the week with this excellent Striped Marlin release.
They also scored big on Dorados and Yellowfin Tunas.
Amazing work by the mega panga!
The Discoverer did well on the 14th with angler Ed Evansen reporting an excellent variety of catches.
An early batch of Dorados and Yellowfin Tunas was capped off with a nice Sailfish release.
Captain Alex was deep in the battle on January 14 as client Kevin Poindexter threw down with an sweet Blue Marlin.
Mate Kevin estimated this beast at a little over 300lbs. Safe released alive and kicking as usual.
The big Marlin was the headliner, but it was supported by this excellent Sailfish release.
This high-flyer put on a nice show with lots of above-the-water action.
They finally outlasted this Sailfish, and brought home lots of nice photos of the fight.
This group rounded out their day with a nice Dorado and a sweet Yellowfin Tuna. Good thing, because it’s easy to work up a big appetite when catching all day long!
Adam LeMaster’s group was back on the Wanderer on the 13th and added to their scorebard with a sweet Sailfish release backed up with some excellent Dorados.
The Harvester welcomed FishingNosara Hall of Famer and Northeast FishingNosara Representative Mark Cooney for an excellent day of catching on the 12th.
BIG Yellowfin Tunas put the mega panga (and her tackle) to the test. Look at this rod-snapping catch:
The Harvester‘s “Never Surrender” attitude was on display at this 40+lbs. Yellowfin managed to break a rod, but not break the mega panga’s spirit.
Later in the day the fish got bigger for Team Cooney.
With tons of Yellowfin Tuna on ice, the ocean changed it up and providedย lovely Dorado scores.
Fantastic work by Captain Alex and the Harvester!
