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.
Captain William reports fantastic action for Annie Crowell and her group. The action started fast with a big Dorado on ice:
Then the Wanderer was attacked from all quarters by hungry Sailfish.
Great fish handling by First Mate Alex as always, but how about Captain William’s keen trigger finger on the camera…trust me it ain’t easy to capture a Sailfish in flight!
Anne scored the final Sailfish of the trip, then added another pair of Dorados to round out the day.
Picture perfect performance by the mighty Wanderer!
Beau Braid and his boys laid down a groundbreaking performance on the flagship Wanderer…how does FOURTEEN Sailfish releases sound to you?
They were swarmed by Sailfish from the start of the trip all the way until the last line was reeled in.
The multiple hook-ups started just after 1pm. They had a double hook-up followed by a triple hook-up.
This is one of the most hectic hookups in all of fishing but these fish did not stand a change because of Captain William’s calm demeanor on the wheel and First Mate Alex’ laser precision in the cockpit.
Beau and the boys experienced yet another Triple hook-up:
The fourteen Sailfish releases were backed up by five beefy Dorados. Safe to say these guys have plenty of filets for the week.
As a final send-off, the Wanderer was greeted in Garza Bay by this majestic Baleena (Humpback Whale). Great shots from Captain William of thes amazing creature in the wild.
Here’s the email we got from Beau: “Thanks Craig! We had an awesome trip. Everything was great, and the fishing even better. Once I get some pictures together I will send some good ones to you. But I know William got a lot of good ones too”
Cathy Riddle was back for more blue water action on February 20 and got off to a fast start with another Dorado on ice, plus a nice looking Wahoo.
Personally, I think the T-shirt is what lured him in.
The Sailfish bite was on in the early afternoon as they released this beast:
Great work by these Florida anglers!
Beau Braid and his Florida posse notched the scorecard today with Captain William on the Wanderer delivering great blue water action.
This Dorado was a good sign early in the trip, but in the afternoon the Sailfish swarm attacked.
Great work by First Mate Alex on the safe releases.
Captain David delivered an identical catch report the next day for client Cathy Riddle, as another Sailfish and another Dorado found the hooks on February 17.
Clearly Captain David has his approach dialed-in and the Explorer is in mid-season form.
