Dorado | Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara

February 12, 2016

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!

Captain Fico has been kicking fish butt on the Explorer, exemplified by this fat Dorado scored in late January:

Yummy!

The Wanderer continues her consistent fishing with a nice Dorado and a Sailfish release.

Unfortunately this Dorado managed to snap one of our rods, but you can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.

Nice work by this fun fishing family!
