Kenny Strickler has been fishing with us for many years, and he returned to Nosara on March 9 for another offshore campaign.
The Harvester reports a full fishbox with multiple catches of Yellowfin Tunas and Dorado.
The Wanderer welcomed the Brookshire family on March 7. This monster Dorado was caught by angler Jatzen Blanco.
Great work by Master Captain William and the mighty flagship Wanderer.
Tim Fox writes: “I was out fishing with David on Saturday, March 6th, and had a great trip. The only thing is, I forgot to have David text me the pictures he took of the dorado and sailfish we caught.”
“David was great and we had a great time!”
Our good buddy Joe Goins took to the Wanderer on March 5. The highlight was this floor-sweeping Dorado:
Multiple Sailfish releases and a tasty Yellowfin Tuna filled the afternoon with rod-bending action.
The Discoverer welcomed Erin Sanders’ family for a fun day offshore.
They nagged five Sailfish releases, plus a tasty dinner-table sized Dorado.
Excellent work Captain Carlos and the big battleship.
Erin Sanders brought her family out to the Wanderer on March 3 for a fantastic day of offshore action.
They scored seven sweet Sailfish releases, plus a nice Dorado on ice.
On March 3, Jill Waldon and her group scored a pair of Sailfish on the Discoverer.
This family also scored a pair of Dorados for the dinner table.
Captain Alex and Brad Watson’s boys got into it with a bunch a bad blue water beasties on the 27th. Big Dorados were iced throughout the day.
Once again we have proof that the more FishingNosara swag you wear on the boat, the more the fish cooporate.
Meanwhile, the Harvester was on the the hunt for some of the swarm of Sailfish swimming near our shores.
On February 26, Dan Johnson from Hatteras took his longtime friend Manuel Obando from Garza out along with Captain Fico‘s son Moises Friend Anthony and little nine-year-old Jefferson.
It was Jefferson‘s first day on the sea and he was happy to catch a Dorado and some bottom fish. Dan gave him a pair of sunglasses, and he’s now a Pescador.
From the “Small World” department:
Dan Johnson from Hatteras was happy to welcome his new friend Antonio Carrillo to fish with him on Wednesday the 24th.
They met at the immigration line in Liberia airport last year while Dan was wearing a Fishing Nosara shirt when Antonio called him next in line
After many questions from Antonio, Dan said he fishes with Fishing Nosara and William Mendoza is my captain of many years
Antonio quickly said he is my father
It’s a small world
Dan has been trying to get Antonio to fish with him on a day off from the immigration police and it worked out great to fish with his father.
So on February 24, the Wanderer welcomed this most distinguished guest:
This may be a vacation for Officer Carillo, but the same can’t be said for the fish…the family scored over ten Red Groupers, plus a nice Yellowfin Tuna.
This trip was a ‘who’s who’ of local talent. Captain Fico of the Explorer came along, also a guest of Mr. Dan Johnson.
The fishing karma was so good that they scored a double Grouper catch even though the snap swivel was left unbuckled.
Near-shore Sailfish release were a welcome diversion.
Also Captain Fico scored an outstanding Yellowfin Tuna.
Here is Father and Son with an excellent Dorado:
“With the best Captain, my father.” Antonio posted.
