Jacksonville’s own John Bottko scored some major Sailfish releases on the Wanderer and made sure that all the kids got involved in the action.
After the safe releases they also nabbed some big Dorados for the dinner table.

Our old pal Doc Hatton brought his crew down for a Merry “Fish”mas party and found excellent blue water action in their stockings. Dennis Shanahan, Fred Lewis and Rick Downing joined in on the celebration.
Their highlight from their trip on the Wanderer was this superb Black Marlin release
Then the Master Captain William tracked down a pack of feeding porpoises and swung the flagship alongside to share in the feeding frenzy:
Check out this Yellowfin Tuna on the surface…looks like the birds and dolphins will get him before we do:
Fortunately a fat Dorado escaped the feeding frenzy by chomping down on a rigged ballyhoo, and the Wanderer fought hard to bring it home.

Travis Buck enlisted the Harvester for a quick half day trip and was rewarded with a bundle of tasty Dorado filets.
Look’s like dinner is taken care of for the week!

Florida anglers Linda Moody and Kirk Langenbach enlisted Captain William for a three-day battle against blue water beasties on the Wanderer.
On the first day they got the deck bloody with a few nice Dorados.
You can see that their friend ‘Flat Jack’ joined them in spirit on this trip:
Flat Jack also enjoyed the amenities at Nosara Paradise Rentals, including an encounter with our furry mascot Bianca:
On day two they return to the flagship and this time scored a high-flying Sailfish:
Let’s see how that picture came out:

Captain William and Mate Jocxer welcomed Dan Johnson for a very productive day of offshore action. The highlight of the trip was this excellent Double Sailfish Release:

Patrick J. Puentes of New Mexico found billfish success with Captain Carlos on December 3. This sweet Sailfish release was the highlight of the trip.

The Discoverer welcomed aboard Catie Wilson and her group for a lovely day of meat-fish conquests.
They nabbed two Yellowfin Tunas and two Dorado, all with good size to them. Great work by Captain Carlos on the battleship…later in the week the Battleship nabbed these tasty filets:

Our new buddy Greg Patts whipped some fish butt on the Super Panga Explorer over a three day span. On November 29 he nabbed a nice Dorado, perfect to gnaw on for the week.
Then on the 30th and 1st he extend his trips to full days so they could head offshore and hunt blue water beasties. Check out these sweet Sailfish releases:
Awesome work by Captain Fico and Mate Elias to deliver the goods!

The Bill Harris group put in some excellent work on the Harvester in mid-November. Early in the trip they nabbed this world-class Sailfish release:
Then Mr. Harris buried the hooks in a swarm of big Dorados.
Ever wonder how we come up with our shirt designs? Inspiration abounds:
The posse scored another excellent Sailfish release to finish off the trip:
Great job by the baddest panga in Costa Rica!
