Captain William closed out the month with a fun morning half day with client Colin Pisano scoring a beautiful Sailfish release.
After the release of this high-flyin’ trophy fish, the flagship brought home dinner with this 30lbs. Dorado.
The Wanderer scored four Sailfish releases on January 26 with client Paul Fontaine.
The fourth Sailfish was a fierce hard-charger but was no match for the flagship.
Later in the day they brought home dinner with this big Dorado.
Great work by the big blue beauty!
Dan Johnson was back in the thick of the action again on January 19 with Captain Fico reporting a nice Sailfish release supported by magnificent Mahi-Mahi filets on ice.
Mate Jhonny slid over to the Super Panga for this trip and put his excellent fish handling on display.
Dan returned to the Explorer on the 21st and put a hurtin’ on this beefy Dorado:

Our great friend Dr. Bart Carey enlisted the battleship for a blue water mission on January 21 and the Discoverer did not disappoint.
This mini-Marlin was a fun fish to fight, and Mate Juan Carlos was very careful with the fish-handling. After all we gotta catch this guy again in a few years when it’s a mammoth.
They rounded out the trip with the release of a nice sized Sailfish and the filleting of beefy Dorado.
The Dorado bite stayed strong with this respectable Mahi-Mahi reported by Captain William on the 18th.
The Wanderer is more than just the hardest-working boat in Central America; it’s also the preeminent spot for young anglers to learn the craft of sportfishing.
This fun-loving family had a boatload of fun with nice Ciero Mackerals, some fun Bonita, and a big Dorado.
Great work by the family friendly flagship!
The Wanderer entered into the teeth of a battle with this giant Dorado on January 16:
Great work by the mighty flagship!
The Discoverer delivered Dorado for client Kelly Borgeois on January 16. Not bad for just aย half day fishing!
In mid-January the Harvester strung together several great results despite the presence of unusually high winds. The catch numbers went down a little but the billfish that were released are all monsters.
After this pair of nice releases the Mega Panga welcome Donald Ladenberger from the Sceptred Isle for a great day of action.
This Royal Navy veteran spun the guns on this Sailfish like the Bismarck, and Mate Kevin was there to play the role of Capt. Shepard.
Later in the week the offshore winds were just too much to bear so Captain Alex stayed inshore and kept the rods bent with Jack Crevalles and Dorados.
The next day the winds relaxed and the Harvester headed offshore for a couple of big Sailfish releases.
By mid-January the conditions were near-perfect, and Captain Alex was champing at the bit to get back into big-time blue water battles.
The day started quickly with two early Sailfish releases.
A third Sailfish hit the hook less than an hour later and once again the Harvester was up for the fight.
After the trophy releases they added a pair of swollen Dorados to the fishbox…pretty much the perfect end to a day on the water!
The Discoverer put together a wonderful trip of trips for Paul and Jon Worthington, scoring a bevy of big Dorados and scoring some sweet Sailfish snatches.
Normally we fixate on the big billfish releases, but the real highlight was the boatload of Doardos that Team Worthington put in the fishboxes.
Look at the girth on these monsters!
Great work by the big battleship Discoverer!
