Here’s a great story of a young angler from Switzerland, as told by his dad:
Dear FishingNosara Team,
I hope you’re all doing well in beautiful Nosara!
Last summer (30.7.22), we spent an unforgettable day fishing off-shore with Raffa and Antonio. My older son Leo (11) keeps telling me that this was his greatest day in the whole holidays and he want’s to come back to Nosara as soon as possible 🙂
Today he painted a picture inspired by your t-shirt – I wanted to share the picture with you guys! We hope to get back to Nosara soon and it’s for sure we will spend some other days fishing with you.
Please send our warm regards to Raffa and Captain Antonio!
Best regards from Switzerland
Dario and Leo
The Explorer scored this excellent Blue Marlin release with on March 5.

The in the afternoon session, the Explorer bested this MONSTER Dorado.
Our old friend George Shipley posted a fantastic fishing day on March 2 with the Explorer reporting a nice Sailfish release and big Dorados on ice.
George wrote us this nice note after the trip:
As we wrap up week 2 and now on the countdown to heading home next Wednesday, I just wanted to say thanks for everything. As always, the fishing nosara : Paradise rentals team are outstanding and have taken care of our every need. Casa Bianca #4 is going to be added to our list of favourites.
I also want to acknowledgement and seriously compliment the boys on the explore. Antonio and first mate Raffa really took care of me yesterday and worked hard to find some action. All in we hooked 4 Mahi’s, including the attached photo. She’s a beauty!! … and we were able to kick off the day with a nice Sailfish.
Anyway, thank you from the Shipley’s for another great year!!!
