Wonderful Double Sailfish release on the Explorer!
This pair of monsters attacked the super panga’s spread but Captain Carlos and Mate Juan Carlos were ready for them.
Once again the good fishing karma found this group of CCA North Carolina anglers and they performed brilliantly.
All fish were safely released, putting the perfect bow on this fishing gift.
Captain Carlos scored huge this week with a quartet of Sailfish releases backed up with nice White Tunas on ice.
The Explorer has been on fire this year and while the rest of the boats are eyeing their September vacation, the barroom brawler is looking forward to a great ‘off-season’ of continued action.
Andrew and Doug returned to the barroom brawler to continue their inshore assault, and flanked by the Adventurer these fellas scored a pair of beefy Amberjacks.
Unlike the AJ’s back home, these lunkers yield delicious filets…check out the great color on these filets:
Andrew Queral and Doug Dickman took a break from big-time billfishing in order to visit the Explorer for a full-on inshore assault.
A beefy pair of Yellowfin Tunas got first the half-day trip off to a good start, then this MASSIVE Amberjack punctuated the second day:
Great work by the legendary Explorer.
The formidable fishing family of Captain Zack Gerzeny tried their hand at Extreme Panga Fishing on August 5 they returned to shore with some excellent variety on the scorecard.
The highlight was this monster Rooster Fish release, but they backed it up with some tasty Yella Fellas and a mean-mouthed Needlefish.
Andrew and Doug moved to the Super Panga Explorer for a great day of inshore action with Captain Carlos.
They kept the rods bent with Yellowfin Tuna and plus added this scary Pinfish.
Another rare and elusive Queen Snapper was scored by the Super panga Explorer! These tasty critters only come through our area once every few seasons so we are pumped to have these in the spread.
Great work by Captain Carlos and the fearless Explorer.
Captain Carlos has been very active on the Explorer with excellent catches of Rock Snapper, Yellowfin Tuna and Cubera Snapper.
The Explorer consistently proves that you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish in Costa Rica.
Our friend John Garris had a blast on the Explorer with the dynamic brother duo of Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin. Joined by Jeff Grosshandler, they scored a pair of Sailfish releases backed up by a nice Dorado.
They also captured this excellent footage of Dolphins flanking the Super Panga:
Ahhh…the easy life of a charter boat Captain. Nothing but fun in the sun with cold beer, big fish, and cute ladies, right?
Sounds good in theory, but in practice these guys have one of the toughest jobs around. It’s especially tough when you have to get your hook back from this guy:
Captain Carlos still has all ten fingers, so we’re guessing that this de-hook went without incident and the “little” shark was released.
Pretty fish, though.
