Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara
Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
Nice fish shopping on the Adventurer for John Green and his boy. These aren’t scale-tippers, but trust me that these White Tunas and Dorados look excellent on the dinner plate.
Nice work on the inshore half day by the unbeatable Captain Carlos and the Adventurer.
Captain David has blown down the walls of Sailfish City this season and the Super panga’s catch numbers are keeping pace with the bigger boats. His trip on March 13 with client Robert Wood featured five big Sailfish releases and a 50+lbs. Dorado on ice.
Mate Kevin is turning into a fish-handling machine; he brought these billfish in and out of the boat with the smooth skill of a Mate with twice his years.
Most amazing of all is that all this action came on just a 5 hour trip…who knows what could’ve gone down with a full eight hours?
Great work by Garza’s fastest rising stars: Captain David and Mate Kevin!
Matt Rich and his party joined the Super Panga for a half-day trip to the blue water, and immediately got the decks bloody with respectable 25lbs. Dorado.
With the appetizer on ice, the main course was served in the form of three big Sailfish releases.
Great work by Mate Kevin to wrangle these monsters for clean, safe releases.
Captain David is on top of his game and we can’t wait to see what surprises the Explorer has in store.
Fantastic action for FishingNosara Hall of Famer George Shipley on the Explorer. Waaaaaaay back in February 2011 Mr. Shipley earned enshrinement with the first double billfish day in the history on the then-new Super Panga.
Looks like he remembered the formula!
This double release was the highlight of the day that also featured a three solo Sailfish releases:
Plus a real nice Wahoo:
Add a late-day Dorado and you have a feast for the Hall of Famer.
Excellent work by Captain David and Mate Kevin to deliver the goods for this awesome angler.
Drew Honeycutt and his group hail from the Tar Heel State and discovered Nosara via the North Carolina Coastal Conservation Association.
They KO’d some nice Sailfish yesterday on the Wanderer, but didn’t score any tasty eatin’ fish.
Problem solved! What a nice Dorado…an authentic deck-scraper!
With the filets on ice, the boys got back to scoring Sailfish with three excellent releases.
Great work by the mighty Wanderer and these fine Carolina anglers.
March 4 proved to be a fun afternoon with this excellent Dorado on ice.
Great to have a souvenir from a 2.5 hour trip, and these tasty Mahi filets are just perfect.
Mitch and Jami Price returned to the Wanderer and stepped their game up big time!
Four more Sailfish releases were added to the scorecard, including one high-flying monster for Jami.
They added some meat for the dinner table with this fine Dorado later in the trip.
Great work by these Florida anglers and of course by the crew of the mighty Wanderer.
Ross Jordan is a tough-as-nails fisherman from Kansas, and based on his performance this week you’d think that there were blue water breaks in the middle of sunflower fields back home.
They started the day off right with a pair of Sailfish releases, then set there sights on delicious dinnertime Dorados.
Great work by the crew of the mighty flagship and these fine anglers from the Jayhawk state.
The Adventurer produced excellent results this month with a wide variety of catches. Check out just a sampling of the inshore morsels that the pocket knife pried up thanks to the moxy of Captain Carlos:
This Broomtail Grouper is definitely an exciting addition to the haul.
Yellowfin Tuna, big Dorado, and Wahoo may be offshore species where you come from, but with the nimble Adventurer these fish market scores can be had just 2 miles from the beach.
Of course a staple of our tasty fish rountine is the delectable White Tuna. These fellas rarely top 15lbs, but every ounce is filled with yummy goodness!
Mitch and Jami Price are the latest in a long line of South Florida anglers to whip some fish butt on the Wanderer, and their 6.5 hour trip on the flagship yielded some awesome catches.
They nabbed a pair of Sailfish early, then Jami added this fat Dorado:
She kept the coals burning by adding another two Sailfish releases to round out the trip.
