The Explorer and angler Sean Taylor battled a big blue Marlin on the 27th, and this monster put on a show above and below the water.
Amazing work by Captain Fico to wrangle this monster in for a safe release.

The Explorer posted the trip of the season so far on December 14 with Jim Becker and FishingNosara Northeast Representative Mark Cooney each nagging a Marlin release.
Mark’s fish was a great catch, but Mr. Becker’s Blue Marlin is truly the highlight of the day.

The Explorer is always a good bet for a suprise fish, and this monster Wahoo fits the bill.
This fish is quite abundant, but this catch is surprising because the sharp teeth of the Wahoo tends to overwhelm our all-mono blue water rigs.
The barroom brawler also nagged the more predictable haul of Yellowfin Tunas.

Bob and Travis Suit scored big on the 10th with Captain Fico reporting a fired-up Sailfish waiting for them offshore.
After the safe Sailfish release, they boated a big Dorado for the dinner table.
Great way to cap off a fun week of fishing!

Dan Johnson had another great day with Captain Fico on December 9.
“My guests were 11-year-old Moises (son to Capitan Fico) and his friend 14-year-old Anthony. They are new captains.”
“Great fishing with Captain Fico. We caught 10 tunas and a 50 pound gaffer Dorado.”

The Explorer introduced Travis and Bob Suits to the blue water species with a nice dose of extreme panga fishing.
This nice Sailfish was the memorable fish of a day which also included some nice Yellowfin Tunas.

FishingNosara Hall of Famer Dan Johnson returned to the Explorer on December 7 and started quickly with a wonderful Sailfish release.
Then in the afternoon the 27-foot barroom brawler nagged several nice Yellowfin Tunas.
Looks like Dan will have plenty to eat this week:

On December 4, Greg Patts and Captain Fico slayed some dragons on board the Explorer.
These nice Sailfish releases were backed up by a nice handful of tasty Yellowfin Tunas.
Great work by the barroom brawler!
