Dorado | Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara

November 21, 2018

The Discoverer welcomed angler Moses Horner for a fun day of offshore action on the 21st. This mighty Sailfish was the highlight of the trip:

After this swell release, the big battleship nabbed several nice Dorados for the dinner table.

Ian Smith and his family kept the family fishing vibes going on the 20th with this nice Dorado score.

Julie Edwards’ family had a big day on the 32-foot Discoverer on the 19th, highlighted by this MONSTER Blue Marlin.

They also scored a Sailfish during the day.

In addition to the safe billfish releases, this group added a nice Dorado and a Yellowfin Tuna.

Great work by Captain Carlos and the big battleship!

Our old pal David Little returned to Nosara in mid-November and these UK anglers had a big time on the Adventurer.

This big Dorado is an example of their great variety of edible catches that will look great on the dinner plate.

On November 18 the Explorer delivered a great fishing experience for this young angler.

It’s always a treat to show kiddos the art of blue water fishing in Costa Rica.

Nice job by the barroom brawler!

Julie Edwards’ family followed up their big action early in the week with another day of big blue water scores on the 17th

A big Sailfish score started the day off on the right foot, and was then backed-up with lots of nice Dorados.

Great job by Captain Alex and Mate Kevin on the mega panga Harvester.

John Hernandez stayed inshore with Captain Fico on the 17th, and scored one of the biggest Rooster Fish we have seen:

Easily weighing in at 60+lbs., this pez gallo was released after taking these pictures.

They also scored a Dorado for the dinner table.

Excellent work by the Explorer!

The barroom brawler welcomed angler Russell Critchlow for a fun day of blue water catching.

They scored a nice Sailfish release, and backed it up with a nice Dorado.

Great work by Captain Fico on the Explorer!

Captain Alex had a bountiful trip on November 14 with angler Matthew Tolley reeling in multiple nice Sailfish.

These pelagics were lined up like a column of soldiers, keeping Captain Alex and Mr. Tolley busy all day long.

Most importantly, all of these monsters were safely handled and released, due to the care expressed by Mate Wilson and Captain Alex.

It wasn’t all trophy fish releases. Matthew went home with a big bag of fish filets thanks to these delicious Dorados.

Great work by the mega panga Harvester!

The Discoverer welcomed Steve Emmott and his group for a fun day of offshore fishing on November 12.

This Sailfish was the highlight of the day which also featured these nice Dorados.

These big green monsters are indicative of the kind of consistent action we’ve enjoyed this whole month.

Great work by the big battleship!
