The barroom brawler Explorer welcomed Nick Moyers for day of fishing on the blue water. Captain Fico reports that the highlight of the trip was a double Sailfish hook-up.
Both fish were safely released separately.
They also nagged some nice Yellowfin Tuna filets for the dinner table.
Excellent work by the super panga Explorer!
The Explorer welcomed Andrew Pickens’ group for a very productive day of offshore action on December 14. This Sailfish release was the highlight:
After the safe release, the barroom brawler loaded up on Yellowfin Tunas and a nice Dorado.
Great job by Captain Fico!
Captain Fico stayed inshore on December 5 and nagged a bunch of nice Red Groupers for angler Justin Seufert.
Great to see that the inshore fishery is producing.
Scott O’Kelley moved over the barroom brawler Explorer on the 24th, and proved once again that you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish in Costa Rica.
Excellent billfish releases got things moving the in right direction. Next, Captain Fico hooked up this big Yellowfin Tuna.
More Yellowfin Tunas and Dorados helped round out the haul.
For the first time in 59 days we have a fishing report to share with the people. The motor on the Explorer has been repaired, but of course she needed a quick water test.
Captain Alex took the helm for the test drive and was joined by Javier and Freddy for a 2 hour tour. They threw out the ceder plugs and the Yella Fellas couldn’t resist.
Clearly the fish missed us, because the boys boated THIRTY Yellowfin Tunas as fast as they could reel.
Do the math: 4 minutes per fish is world-class angling!
These filets will keep the team motivated on their construction projects, and remind us why we work so hard. What a blessing to get back out on the water!
Captain Fico delivered for his clients on March 14 with a sweet DOUBLE SAILFISH release.
Great work by the barroom brawler!
On March 11, Colorado angler Jay Broadhurst was seeing double during his 5 hour trip on the Explorer.
Double Sailfish, that is!
Great job by Captain Fico and Mate Adrian to safely negotiate this erratic fight and safe releases.
On March 10 the Explorer had a fun day aboard the Explorer. This group scored the requisite Yellowfin Tunas.
They also bragged the more elusive Wahoo.
Great variety for the filet bag!
The Explorer continued to perform with angler Nick Andrus reporting a nice Sailfish release backed up by a tasty Dorado.
Later in the day a Rooster Fish release was a welcome sight.
Great work by the barroom brawler Explorer and Captain Fico.
Captain Fico and the barroom brawler Explorer put in big work on March 3, reporting several Sailfish releases.
They backed up these catches with a nice array of Yellowfin Tuna.
