Then near the end of the session they released this wonderful Rooster Fish.
The Explorer welcomed Jess King and Elizabeth Rasch for a fun fishing campaign on August 17.
They kept the rods bent with multiple Dorados and Yellowfin Tunas.
“First ever off shore fishing trip in Costa Rica,” wrote Jess on social media. “It was a blast! Caught 3 Yellow Fin Tuna and 2 Dorado!! Seen hundreds of dolphins and a sea turtle!”
Larry Schenavar and his group joined the Explorer on August 6 and they got busy with a bunch of Sailfish releases.
They then moved inshore and conquered this stunning Cubera Snapper.
Awesome work by Captain Fico (on his birthday, no less!)
Mitch Rabin and his group scored big on the Explorer with Captain Fico reporting big catches and big fun. These sweet Sailfish releases top the barroom brawler’s scorecard.
They also added several big Yellowfin Tunas. Notice that while they are posing with one fish another is already on the cooler.
For variety they also nagged a tasty Dorado.
Excellent work by Captain Fico!
David Sohm added an extra half day to his Costa Rican fishing adventure by enlisting the Explorer for an inshore assault on August 2.
This monster Rooster fish was followed by a smaller variant; both safely released after the photos as always.
Not for releasing was this GIGANTIC Cubera Snapper:
Excellent fishing from the barroom brawler Explorer.
On July 21, Captain Fico took Lance Strand and his boys out for a fun five hour day on the water.
The seasoned US Coast Guard anglers performed brilliantly on Dorado and Yellowfin Tuns.
Later in the day, young Mr. Strand scored a football-sized Yella Fella of his own.
Anthony Zeitlin’s group performed brilliantly on the Explorer, with Captain Fico reporting this super Sailfish release.
The Explorer and angler Keith Scherer scored a handful of nice Sailfish releases on July 9.
These high-flyers were both caught on a 5 hour half day; certainly they left fish when they pulled the plug at midday.
Nice work by Captain Fico!
Fred Mullins joined the Explorer on July 3 and caught some excellent Yellowfin Tunas for the dinner table.
