Fantastic job by Captain Carlos on the big battleship!
Art and Christine Jones got their week of fishing off to a fast start with the Harvester reporting a swarm of sweet Sailfish releases.
Check out the above-the-water action from these fired-up high-flyers:
After the early run of Sailfish releases they hooked into this meaty Dorado estimated to weigh 30lbs.
With dinner taken care of, the Jones crew went back to trophy fish hunting:
Around mid-day they hooked-up a hunting pair of Sailfish. Mate Kevin did an excellent job to coordinate both fights and ensure safe releases.
They followed up with another double hookup, but this time one spit the hook and escaped.
The Discoverer leads the team in Grand Slams this year, and on May 21 close to notching the scorecard with another one.
Joined by client Jennifer Engle, Captain Carlos nabbed two Blue Marlins, and two Sailfish.
For good measure they also added a Dorado for the dinner table.
Fantastic work by Jennifer Engle and the Discoverer.

Tough-as-nails Texas angler Mike Mininni and his group had a big day of action on the Wanderer on May 5.
The Sailfish were fired up, and even when the skies opened up these folks weren’t scared to fight fish in the rain!
The rain subsided in the afternoon and these Texans scored more Sails and Dorados to round out the day.
Captain Alex started the month of May on a hot streak with five back-to-back days of awesome results.

Way to bring home the bacon young man!
Richard Mumford and Frank Gregg scored the fish of a lifetime with Captain Alex on the Harvester in the form of this 350+lbs. Black Marlin.
