Bob Oliker scored this floor-sweeping Dorado with Captain David on June 17:
That’s gotta be at least 60lbs. if not more. Great catch by the battleship!

Sergio’s group of Tampa anglers have found excellent action on the inshore reefs outside Garza Bay. On June 8 the Wanderer scored this excellent specimen of Rooster Fish:
We released this beauty as usual, but this group didn’t leave empty-handed. They got this monster Pinfish, and also released a small Dorado…c’mon back when you’re 50lbs. buddy!

The Wanderer welcomed Jack Walker, Sue Garcia, Beverly Lanier, Alice Trautman, plus Ray and Terrie Overholser for a great trip to the blue water.
Captain William stalked a school of feeding Dolphins out to the feeding grounds, and the blue beauty set up shop on top of a feeding frenzy.
This Sailfish release broke the ice and was a great sign of things to come. The crew nabbed this beefy 40+lbs. Yellowfin tuna fresh after the billfish release.
The real highlight was this 60+lbs. Dorado. Everyone wanted a picture with this monster which took several hands for the lift.
Great work by this posse of Captain Sergio’s Costa Rica Adventurers!

The resilient Wanderer scored this big Dorado with Steve Belew and his group on May 28th.
This catch represents the last fish that these old Star Rods will ever catch…Matty showed up today with a fresh shipment of our custom FishingNosara rods from Poseidon Fishing.
Lot of memories in these old sticks, but its time to put them in the museum where they belong.

Captain Carlos and Mate Fico are fitting in nicely on the barroom brawler Explorer. Check out this floor-sweeper Dorado they snagged:
They also are no strangers to Sailfish releases. Take a gander at this monster:
Great performance from the unstoppable Super Panga!

Dr. Bart Carey and his crew had a knock-out day on the Wanderer with not one, not two, but THREE Marlin releases.
The second Marlin came hot of the heels of the first, with only 45 minutes between releases.
They scored this tasty Dorado for the fishbox:
The final send-off was this amazing above-the-water Marlin fight. Check the action on this beast:
Great safe releases by First Mate Alex underscore another magnificent performance by Captain William and the famous Wanderer.

The Discoverer is more than a billfish battler; she also has the tools to bring home the bacon:
By ‘bacon’ we mean ‘big Dorado’!
Great catch by the McLaughlin posse who looks to be well-fed this week.

Gary Fiveash and his party had a blast on the Explorer as Captain Carlos helped them tangle with the most broad-shouldered Dorado you’ll ever see:
For heaven’s sake this fish is wider than both the angler and Mate Fico!
They also scored this whopper of a Yellowtail Snapper on a top water plug…a very tasty catch to augment the Mahi.
Great work by Captain Carlos and the strong Super panga.

Another outstanding inshore performance by the Adventurer on May 14. This couple scored a big Dorado and a nice Yellowtail Snapper.
Looks like we need a bigger icebox on the Adventurer if this kind of action keeps up!

The Adventurer continues to amaze as Mate Fico has really applied himself to maintain the high standards set on the 23-foot pocket knife.
Check out this big Wahoo, estimated at 35+lbs.:
That was the highlight of a trip that also included small Tunas and Dorados…a nice way to round out the shopping cart.
