Mario Hoffman’s group scored big inshore fish with the Explorer on February 11th and 13th.

Early scores of meat fish were welcome in the fishbox, and these Rooster Fish releases were also a thrill:

Also they nabbed one of the larger Rock Snappers that we have seen in a long time:

Great work by Captain Fico on the Explorer!

Jerome McKown and his posse of East Texas anglers put in a great day on the big battleship Discoverer on February 4.

The highlight of the day was a pair of big Sailfish releases:

After the safe billfish releases the team ripped up this 30lbs. Dorado:

This big Dorado was a welcome treat that found it’s way to the dinner table back at Nosara Paradise Rentals for an end-of-week fiesta:

The legendary Dan Parker struck again with a huge day of Sailfish releases on the Harvester.

Captain Alex took them offshore and found the billfish were aggressive and hungry.

 

Early in the day they snatched up 4 Sailfish, all safe released by Mate Kevin.

The highlight of the trip was this awesome Double Sailfish Release:

This is one of the most exciting feats in fishing backed up by some amazing photos.

To round out the trip they put this big Dorado in the fishbox…perfect for a late night snack at Nosara Paradise Rentals with the Jerome McKown group.

The Wanderer kept up the excellent fishing with another set of CCA Texas folks on February 3.

Art and Christine Jones brought their friends along for a trip to the meat market; for starters there was an excellent Yellowfin Tuna bite, which was then followed up by a big tasty Dorado.

They also added a sweet Sailfish release later in the trip:

On February 2, legendary Texas angler Jerome McKown walloped a wicked Wahoo on the flagship Wanderer.

This deck-sweeper is a true monster; each side yielded four 1-gallon bags of filets.

That wasn’t the only fish of the day…this posse of CCA TX anglers nabbed a big Dorado and a number of football-sized Yellowfin Tuna.

Ray Smith and Jerome McKown had a big day of action with Captain Alex on January 31.

The first big catches of the day were this pair of floor-sweeping Dorados.

Then the action really heated up in the afternoon where the Sailfish were stacked up thick as cordwood.

Looks like Ray was pumped up to catch this big monster!

The day was punctuated by several double strikes.

Mate Kevin did a fantastic job handling these big Pacific Sailfish…amazing work!

Jeff Dupree and his group started out their trip on the Harvester with a wonderful Sailfish release.

After the trophy release they continued scoring, filling up the refrigerator in with bunches of big Dorado.

This big one zig-zagged to both sides of the boat but Captain Alex kept the angles lined up and the fish off of the motor.

All told they nabbed five nice Dodos, all with good size to them.
