Brady Ballard joined up with the Discoverer on the 19th and was treated to excellent offshore action, starting with this World-Class Blue Marlin release:
Late in the day snagged these big Dorados:
Sweet Sailfish releases followed, rounding out a perfect day of fishing.
Great job by Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin!
Captain Alex welcomed Daniel Bryant and his family on July 18 for a sweet day of fierce fishing action.
The early part of the day featured great meat fish action with Dorados on ice.
In the afternoon session the Harvester dug in for fun Sailfish releases.
Another fun Texas angler, Crystal Dupre and her group, came down on July 18. A big Dorado was followed up by an excellent Sailfish release.
Brady Ballard brought his posse from Austin, TX for a packed week of action on the blue water with Captain William running the gamut of fish on July 17.
This early-morning Sailfish release was quickly followed up by a variety of tasty table fare.
First a big Dorado, then a pack of Yellowfin Tunas…looks like dinner is served!
A big monster came late in the day. This monster Blue Marlin is a true warrior and it took the best boat in Central America to capture and release her.
Great work by the mighty Wanderer.
July 16th saw more good Dorado action on the Wanderer. No one is going hungry this week!
Robert Ong swung by the CR office and booked the Adventurer on July 15, and despite the low price of the 23-foot panga this angler brought home a great haul of fresh fish filets.
If this pile went to the fish market, he would have come out far ahead on this charter. Amazing work by Captain David!
Texas anglers Juan Montelongo and his posse joined the flagship and got started fast with several football-sized Yellowfin Tunas on ice.
Vanessa Bremby added this monster Dorado:
At the end of the trip this excellent Sailfish came calling and the Wanderer brought her all the way in for a safe release.
Brent Louviere’s group got off to a fast start on the Discoverer with several tasty meat fish caught on July 14.
They started with this big Dorado, then added multiple Yellowfin Tunas. Looks like this group will be well-fed for the week.
The inshore assassin Adventurer continued to score major fish on July 10. Get a load of this MASSIVE Amberjack:
What an amazing fish…easily 80+lbs.!
Captain David then lead a tour of the fish market, loading up on Snapper, Yellowfin Tuna, and Dorado.
I don’t know if the IGFA recognizes an ‘Inshore Tasty Filets Grand Slam’, but if so this clearly qualifies.
Paul Worthington kept his hot streak going with a fantastic follow-up performance on July 10.
A nice Sailfish was backed up by a delicious-looking Dorado. Great work by the Discoverer.
Here’s what Paul wrote in an email when he got back:
“Just a note to let you know we had a great time in Nosara. As always your local staff were knowledgeable, accommodating and professional. From Marias breakfast to the guys in the office, along with those behind the scenes it was a positive experience!”
