The Wanderer finished the season with a magnificent trip with Christine Clarke and her family on August 22.

The father/son and mother/daughter combos went head-to-head with two nice Dorados.

A third nice fish rounded out the filet haul.

Family fun aside, Captain William and the mighty Wanderer earned the title of the FishingNosara flagship by scoring big Marlin releases.

This beastie put on a show for the Clarke family, and Mate Johnson was ready to bill and release the final Marlin of the season.

After a year that saw 234 trips, the big blue beauty is back on the trailer and ready for a month-long repaint and refit.

Captain William will be back on the scene in mid-September to continue his reign as the best Captain in all of Central America.

August 3rd was a banner day for angler Peter Petrassi and his group. They scored Sailfish early and often.

These fish were fired-up and put our tackle to the test…this rod wasn’t up to snuff:

Mate Kevin was busy all day keeping these billfish under control and safely released.

Everyone got multiple shots at these wonderful pelagic behemoths.

To top it off they scored a double Dorado hook-up and brought home lots of nice filets for dinner.

Trent Mabe and his family posted a banner day on August 2 with Captain William.

The day started quickly with several wonderful meat fish including these sweet Yellowfin Tunas.

Then they boated an awesome Dorado; this is one of the biggest of the season!

With the boat riding low in the water from all the filets, there’s no way Captain William would take it further offshore to hunt Marlin, right?

Wrong!

This big bad Black Marlin threw down the gauntlet late in the day and the Wanderer was up to the challenge

 

 

Awesome day by the mighty flagship!
