Our rainy season fishing campaign concluded with a trio of trips in early October with angler Troy Davis enlisting the Explorer for blue water action.

Several Sailfish releases were backed up with a literal boat load of medium-sized Dorados.

Mr. Smith and his crew got out of town just in time to avoid some historic flooding. Some areas of Nosara endured 30 feet of flooding.

The flooding in Nosara has been challenging, but the Ticos are working together and helping each other out.

Here is the 23-foot Adventurer with Capitan Alex, Antonio, and NPR staff Jeni and others getting some local kids to high ground.

The waters have since receded and things are getting back to normal.

Jeroen Nelis specifically wanted to target Sailfish, and although we can only take what the ocean gives us, on September 18 the ocean was in a giving mood and provided this angler with an excellent Sailfish release.

This great trophy release was backed up by some nice Dorados for the dinner table.

Great work by Captain Fico and the Explorer!

Craig Sutton and Javier went fishing on the 11th with Captain Fico, along with a special guest: Javier’s seven-year old son Dario.

Fans of this fishing report already know that Dario is a master of river mouth fishing, however this Sailfish represents his first billfish release.

Great work by young Dario!

Captain Fico took angler Jeff Tomcsik offshore on July 30 and found the Sailfish laying in wait.

This aggressive high-flyer provided great fishing memories, while these Yellowfin Tuna weighed down the dinner table.

The next day they scored a true fish of a lifetime with this excellent Blue Marlin release.

They finished the day inshore and scored another awesome trophy fish releases with this Rooster Fish.
