Double Sailfish – Page 11 – Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara

March 14, 2016

Captain Fico and Mate Elias have delivered white-hot action to their clients this month on the Explorer.

These guys have the 28-foot super panga dialed-in and their results are proof that you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish.

The Sailfish bite is on strong with the barroom brawler knocking out several Sails, including some Double Sailfish releases (above).

Rooster fish releases have also been a constant this month for the Explorer:

It’s not all trophy releases, either. The fish box on the super panga has stayed bloody with reports of big Dorado and feisty Yellowfin Tunas:

Our buddy Alan Kenter barnstormed down for a quick fishing trip with the battleship Discoverer.

This big Rooster fish release is among the biggest of the year so far, and was followed by a second nice pez gallo:

The inshore triumphs were followed up by a sweet Double Sailfish release:

Mike Lydle and his group from Sun City Center, FL broke the boat record for the Discoverer by releasing TWENTY Sailfish on March 7.

In addition to a Triple hookup, this mammoth performance included several double releases.

Fantastic work by Captain Fico and the big battleship Discoverer.

Brian Burke and Vicky Zelen had a big day of trophy fish releases on March 6, starting with this nice Rooster fish:

Then they headed offshore and scored this sweet Double Sailfish Release:

Great work by the unstoppable Explorer!

Craig invited Javier and Marino along for his last day of fishing on the Harvester, and Captain Alex put them on the fish early and often.

Aside from this Double Sailfish release, they also scored several more Sailfish during the trip.

Great work by the mega panga!

Another day, another Double Sailfish release for the famous Wanderer.

Seems like one is never enough for Captian William. Great work!

February 19, 2016

On February 19 returning anglers Bob and Helen Goins executed a Double Sailfish release on the Wanderer.

Both fish were safely handled and released by Mate Johnson, however we chose to not get the double picture and instead let one go early to ensure the safety of the fish.

The Discoverer welcomes client Annalise Osborne and her boys for a fun afternoon of offshore action. The highlight was this awesome Double Sailfish release:

The highlight of their double-digit release day with this Double Sailfish release executed by Mate Kevin:

Excellent work by the mega panga!

January 27, 2016

The Harvester had the biggest day of her short career on January 27 with 11 Sailfish releses, including a Triple Hookup / Double release:

What a day for clients Greg Tilley along with Laura and Todd Horton…it certainly didn’t take Captain Alex long to get the Mega Panga dialed in!

Here’s what the clients wrote on Facebook:

“Fishing in Costa Rica is awesome! If you every get the chance…..GO!!!! We doubled up twice and tripled once. Caught a total of 20 sailfish on 30 bites. It takes a pretty good captain to get 3 sailfish to the boat at the same time and released”

“The first triple for thie Harvester. (landed and released all three fish) We also had two doubles (2nd & 3rd for Harvester)and the 1st time getting the 2 fish pictured together. Captain Alex and mate Kevin did an awesome job and I highly recommend them if you ever get to fish in Costa Rica.” – Greg Tilley

“Alex and Kevin are the ticket! Great captain and mate combo! Keep up the good work!” – Todd Horton
