Captain Carlos on the big battleship Discoverer knocked it out of the park on the 26th with angler Ted Markow and his family. This mystery billfish led off the action:
Juvenile Striped Marlin or Spearfish? we aren’t sure but it was a fun fish to fight. They also nabbed several Sailfish releases. This was young Piper’s first Sailfish:
For the dinner table the kids grabbed a nice Dorado and a fine Yellowfin Tuna.
Great job by this fun fishing family.
Captain Fico continued to stalk the unusual school of Yellowfin Tunas on the 26th and hit the jackpot with the Explorer reporting six nice catches.
These were backed up with a monster Dorado.
Big smile and big filets abound on the barroom brawler!
Captain William continued his consistent action on Christmas Day with angler Harry Tucker reporting excellent Dorado and Yellowfin Tunas.
Travis Seaton and his boys scored big with Captain Alex on Christmas day.
The usually-rare, suddenly-abundant Yellowfin Tuna made an early appearance.
Also the Dorado were stacked up so thick that a double-hookup was all but inevitable.
More Dorado scored punctuated the trip.
Great work by the Harvester.
Captain William welcomed Ted Markow and his girls for a fun-filled day of catching on December 24th.
Nice-sized Yellowfin Tunas were the staple catch of the morning. After a quick dip in the blue water, Team Markow continued fishing and scored deck-sweeping Dorados.
The pre-Christmas shopping spree continued for the Harvester on December 24 with angler Jon Conner reporting several sweet Dorado scores.
These anglers terminated one big Dorado after another.
Hasta la vista!
Great work by the Harvester and mankind’s only hope Jon Connor.
Captain William delivered the goods for Julie Radley’s family on the 23rd, highlighted by this stunning Blue Marlin release early in the day.
After the wonderful release by Mate Johnny, Captain William kept trolling and nabbed several nice Dorados.
Great work by the mighty flagship Wanderer!
Captain Alex stared his late-December run with a stack of Dorado scores on December 22.
They were lots of nice Mahis ready to be caught, and the Harvester was up to the challenge.
Great work by the mega panga and Captain Alex.
The Dowell Family joined the Discoverer on December 21 and their half-day adventure was rewarded with a nice Sailfish.
The Sails are starting to show up in late-December, and our crews are stoked to see their return. After the billfish release, the big battleship scored a nice Dorado for the dinner table.
Great job by Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin.
Matty was on board the mighty Wanderer on December 18 and battled a MASSIVE Black Marlin for two hours.
This monster hit around 3:00pm and fought until sunset, when after several leader grabs finally broke the hook right next to the boat.
We see around five of these size Marlin per year, and is clearly the biggest fish Matty ever caught.
The flagship didn’t go home empty handed, thanks to this nice Dorado from early in the day.
All smiles on the way back in.
Great work by Captain William and the mighty Wanderer.
