Mick Carlson and his boys had a huge day of blue water action with Captain William. They started out with this nice Dorado:
Then they strapped up for battle with a series of nice Pacific Sailfish.
The bite stayed strong all the way until the last few minutes of the half day trip, topped off with this early afternoon Sailfish.
Captain Fico and Mate Elias have delivered white-hot action to their clients this month on the Explorer.
These guys have the 28-foot super panga dialed-in and their results are proof that you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish.
The Sailfish bite is on strong with the barroom brawler knocking out several Sails, including some Double Sailfish releases (above).

Rooster fish releases have also been a constant this month for the Explorer:
It’s not all trophy releases, either. The fish box on the super panga has stayed bloody with reports of big Dorado and feisty Yellowfin Tunas:
The Harvester got on a hot streak this month, starting on the 3rd with this very productive day of Sailfish releases:
Mate Kevin was on top of his game with these big pelagic releases.
Check out the amazing bio-luminescence on this beast:
The crew also added a medium-sized Dorado for the dinner table. Not bad at all!
Michael Mariola brought his sons along for a family fishing outing on the Wanderer, and the fatherly Captain William showed the boys how it’s done with some big Sailfish releases.
Mate Johnson did an excellent job of making sure these monsters were released safely.
They also scored a small but tasty Dorado later in the trip…always nice to have some filets to bring home.
The Explorer had a monster day on the 17th with three Sailfish releases, two Rooster Fish releases, and a big Dorado on ice.
Nice fish handling by Mate Kevin to ensure safe releases of these prized trophy fish!
It certainly looks like client Dante Quinine and his posse got their fishing fix on this trip!
The Explorer snagged a tasty Dorado on February 12. This monster will certainly keep a few mouths fed for the week:
Great work by the unstoppable Captain Fico!
Jason Smith scored big on the super panga Explorer with several Sailfish released backed up by a meaty Dorado for dinner.
Captain Fico is on a hot streak and his clients are reaping the rewards!
Captain Alex brought the month of January to a magnificent close with client Jason Smith reporting big Sailfish releases:
The highlight of their double-digit release day with this Double Sailfish release executed by Mate Kevin:
They also nabbed a tasty Mahi-Mahi for the fishbox.
Excellent work by the mega panga!
Bill Elm had a terrific day with Captain Alex on the Harvester with lots of Sailfish releases backed up by some fat Dorados.
An early Sailfish release about 5 miles from shore set the tone, then the first big Dorados came through the spread.
More rowdy Sailfish came calling in the afternoon, but Bill and the boys were ready for them.
Great fish-handling as always by Mate Kevin.
The Harvester has already shattered expectations and we can’t wait to see what she will do next!
Returning client Bill Elms joined Captain Alex for a full day of action which included several Sailfish releases backed up a big dinner-time Dorado.
Tasty filets on deck for Bill!
