Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara
Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
Two days after her glorius return to the blue water, the Explorer nabbed another three Sailfish releases with Roy and his family, including a triple hook-up that turned into a Double release.
Clearly the fish are here, but only the legendary Super panga is on the water!
The off-season warrior known as the Explorer is still on the water and Captain Carlos is satisfying his clients.
Roy Amodt and his family scored a trio of Sailfish, all safely handled and released by Mate Kevin.
Excellent work by the super panga!
We love all out clients, but it is a special treat when we can welcome a professional charter captain and his group to our little stretch of blue water paradise.
Marvin Steiding brought the whole crew from his South Florida-based Reel Candy Sportfishing operation for a few days of blue water action on theย Discoverer.
After some early success on Sailfish, they brought it inshore and scored big on Rooster fish.
This Pacific species is certainly a fun catch for these Jupiter, FL based pros.
They also added a few Dorados for the dinner table…great action all around for the Reel Candy team!
Our good friends George and Laura Kommick spend a wonderful three days on the Explorer in mid-September. George released this nice Sailfish:
…but the unquestioned highlight was this MASSIVE deck-sweeping Wahoo reeled in by Laura:
That’s one heck of ‘Hoo!
The Explorer finished of the month with a hot streak of great catches. This Marlin scored by Tyler Hawes is clearly the leader of the pack:
Then the barroom brawler started racking up Sailfish releases by the bunches.
It’s wasn’t just trophy releases being scored by the Super panga; Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin also filled up the icebox with Dorado and Yellowfin Tuna:
Also, local diver Gustavo Villalobos Jimรฉnez took a quick ride out of the bay and dove down for a pair of tasty Langostas (lobsters):
Fantastic action from the baddest 26-foot boat in the country!
Joe Netti spent a great week in Nosara chasing billfish on the Super Panga Explorer.
Check out these beautfiul Sailfish releases:
Great work Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin!
North Carolina’s own Chad Grimes brought his buddies to Nosara for a week of big blue water fishing action.
They started their campaign on the Explorer with great early results.
After these great Sailfish releases, the crew got a visit from a special visitor: the rare Spotted Whale Shark:
This beauty came close enough to the boat for Chad to actually touch it…a very rare and wonderful treat!
Jacksonville’s own Brian Comer won his trip to Nosara through the annual Florida Sportsman Magazine Expo, and like most of our Northeast Florida anglers he found great success on the Pacific’s blue water.
After their big Marlin score earlier in the week, they followed up with a pair of Sailfish releases on an afternoon half day with Captain Carlos.
Great fish-handling by Mate Kevin to see these beasts swim free.
The Explorer closed out the month strong…fresh on the heels of several Marlin releases, they continued to score multiple Sailfish releases in late July:
Also they snagged a sweet Dorado for the dinner table:
Did I say three Marlins in three days?
I meant four Marlins in four days!
The barroom brawler is on a history-making streak, this time scoring a mammoth Blue Marlin for client Ward Heinrich.
Safe released as always by Mate Kevin.
They also marked the scorecard with a Sailfish release.
Wonderful work by the legendary Explorer!
