Jeff Broome posted the trip of the year so far with Captain Alex on June 11. First off was a true Double Sailfish release.

After the safe release of both fish, they added a third Sailfish for good measure.

Then the real monster came calling as the Harvester reports another MASSIVE Marlin release (the second in two days):

 

 

Amazing work by Captain Alex, Mate Wilson, and these Jacksonville anglers.

Here’s what Jeff had to say in an email:

Craig & Matt,

Just wanted to say an enthusiastic THANK YOU for the incredible trip we had thanks to your team.  In 3 days (June 9,10,11) we got 3 Marlin (2 blue and a massive black!) 3 sailfish, a huge Dorado, and a good deal more Tuna and Mahi. 
Thanks to Capt Alex and his hard working deck hand Wilson, I was able to cross Marlin off my bucket list of fish to catch… definitely a dream for me and I know I speak for all the guys in our group that it was definitely the fishing trip of a lifetime! 
You could tell how passionate Alex was about fishing… his favorite thing to say after we brought in a catch was, “Let’s get another one!”

Pura Vida!

On May 22, Karen and Chris Lawrence pulled off one of the great feats in blue water fishing: the DOUBLE SAILFISH Release.

This challenge involves keeping both fish separated during the fight so they don’t cut off the lines, and masterfully boat- and fish-handling.

Great work by the dynamic duo of Captain Carlos and his little brother Mate Kevin!

Later in the day filled up the fishbox with these tasty Dorados.

Awesome job from two of our favorite Texas anglers.

Andy Nuber pulled off one of the toughest feats in blue water fishing: The Double Sailfish release!

Aided by Mate Kevin and Mate Wilson, both of these creatures were safely released.

Later on they hooked up a nice Dorado for the dinner table.

The Discoverer and Dan Wood group posted an amazing day of billfish action on March 22. They nabbed a 200lbs. Blue Marlin early in the trip:

Later  the Sailfish bite heated up with this challenging Double Sailfish release followed up with a third Sailfish right at the end of the half-day trip.

Pretty sweet for just a half day trip!

The legendary Dan Parker struck again with a huge day of Sailfish releases on the Harvester.

Captain Alex took them offshore and found the billfish were aggressive and hungry.

 

Early in the day they snatched up 4 Sailfish, all safe released by Mate Kevin.

The highlight of the trip was this awesome Double Sailfish Release:

This is one of the most exciting feats in fishing backed up by some amazing photos.

To round out the trip they put this big Dorado in the fishbox…perfect for a late night snack at Nosara Paradise Rentals with the Jerome McKown group.

David White and the Harvester turned in a performance worthy of the FishingNosara Hall of Fame on January 18.

First up with this challenging Double Sailfish release, with Mate Kevin on the assist.

These were the first of five Sailfish releases on the trip.

The highlight came late in the day with this 200+lbs. Marlin Release.

Dan Johnson having fun again with his friends! The local legend was back in action on the 18th with Captain William on the Wanderer reporting four Sailfish releases backed up by a big Dorado.

Javier came along on this offshore hunt; the highlight was these challenging Double Sailfish hookups and releases.

 

The Dorado came late in the day and will definitely look good on the dinner plate.

Fantastic work by the mighty flagship Wanderer!

Captain William and Mate Jocxer welcomed Dan Johnson for a very productive day of offshore action. The highlight of the trip was this excellent Double Sailfish Release:

Nice to have Captain Fico of the Explorer along to lend an extra hand on this difficult fish-handling feat.

Later they had great success on a swarm of Yellowfin Tuna and Dorado:
