The dynamic duo of Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin have taken the Explorer to new heights of Extreme Panga fishing. This week clients went toe-to-fin with several bad Sailfish…

…but the Brothers stopped them in heir tracks with safe releases all around.

The Explorer also took advantage of the schools of big Dorado that have come close to shore, and filled their client’s filet bags to the brim.

The Super panga also found success inshore with a fantastic family-style Rooster Fish release:

Man, even the Bonita and Jacks are big right now!

It’s a great time to get down on some Extreme Panga fishing!.

Captain Carlos has continued to shine on the super panga Explorer this month.

On November 11 he led a trip to the inshore fish market for his clients and they filled the shopping cart with Dorado, Wahoo, and Queen Snappers:

Amazing all around catches for the Explorer left these clients with a wide variety of filets for the frigerator.

Jacksonville’s own John ‘Porkchop’ Porcella knocked out a wide variety of sea life on board the Explorer, highlighted by this big Amberjack:

Later in the day they went offshore and roped a Double Sailfish release!

Excellent performance from Captain Carlos and the boat that doesn’t know the meaning of ‘off-season’!

Captain Carlos has the Explorer rocking-and-rolling this ‘off-season’ with another successful trip on October 10.

This Sailfish release was the highlight of  the trip. Great release by Mate Kevin to assure we’ll see this beauty again later this season.

They didn’t leave empty handed, either; this tasty Yellowfin Tuna will yields some excellent filets for this growing lad. Nice catch!

At 4:00 this nasty Black Marlin evades capture, skyrockets past the motor, and breaks off the leader.

At 4:10 the Marlin comes up to wave good-bye. Insane!

These Jacksonville anglers for a fun-filled five hour trip on the Explorer…after a pair of early Marlins on the line, they kept at it and their efforts were rewarded with a cooler full of delicious Dorados.

Four big Dodos, a few Bonita, and a small Cierro Mackeral on ice…All in a day’s work from the unbeatable Super panga Explorer!

Dr. Kelly Huber and her family of North Florida anglers braves some big seas and stormy skies to get a crack at Extreme Panga Fishing. After a very difficult first day on the water, they rebounded nicely with excellent inshore action.

The Good Doctor scored this Bonita early in the trip…hey slow down! We got our sights set on better-eating fish than a Bonita!

For instance,. this Cubera Snapper couldn’t resist the tasty morsel and swallowed the Bonita whole (including the hook):

They followed up with a nice Yellowtail Snapper.

Great perseverance from these Ponte Vedra folks was rewarded with a sack full of filets.
