Thomas Matthews and his family suffered a few lost fish on their inshore half day on July 31, but the mighty Wanderer knows how to bounce back from a tough start.
Late in the trip, Mrs. Matthews hooked up a monster and put on a clinic for the girls.
Check out this sweet Amberjack:
Perseverance pays people!
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.
David Washburn brought the kids along for an inshore fish hunt, and the mighty Wanderer reaped the rewards with a wide variety of filets in the box.
This respectable Rock Snapper kicked off the action, and several more of the tasty red morsels found their way on board.
After the early flurry of action, Mr. Washburn got a strike from a BIG fish and had to use the fighting chair to battle this fish with spinning tackle.
Usually we use this thing for skyrocketing Marlin, so everyone was looking forward to seeing what kind of monster was tied to this reel.
BOOM! This 50+lbs. Rooster fish was live released after a few quick pictures.
Great fishing from a great family on the mighty Wanderer.
Gilles Lemay brought his sons along for a family fishing adventurer on the famous Wanderer, and their late-day trip yielded some excellent table fare.
Looks like these guys have plenty of sushi and filets in their future…Great work by the flagship!
More great family action for the Adventurer. Check out this beefy Cubera Snapper scored from the reefs outside of Garza:
A swarm of Rooster fish have hit the area around Garza Bay and Captain David has put the Discoverer neck deep in the middle of them. Check out this nice 25lbs. specimen caught on July 2:
The next day the battleship welcomed a nice family of anglers and scored a nice Yellowfin Tuna backed up with a meaty Mangrove Snapper:
David Uhl and his boys got their week of Extreme Panga Fishing underway on the 23-foot Adventurer.
The inshore action was strong, yielding White Tuna, a small Dorado, and a beefy Yellowfin Tuna.
Nice work boys!
The Adventurer has seen some great action this month, but we always want to pay special attention to the catches recorded by our young anglers.
This father-son sunset trip on May 3 yielded some nice White Tuna catches (above), and the next day another youngster grabbed himself a sandwich-sized Dorado:
Great work by Fico and the family-friendly Adventurer.
Joe Doubek and his family celebrated Easter aboard the flagship Wanderer and they snatched up Sailfish like they were Easter eggs.
Captain William tracked a feeding porpoise pod and Team Doubek swiped a handful of small Yellowfin Tunas out from under their bottle-noses.
Big family fun on the Wanderer for Joe Doubek!
Tom Bernik brought his sons down to Nosara with big fish on the brain. Captain William and First Mate Alex of the famous Wanderer overcame overcast skies and some medium chop to deliver the goods to this hard-fishing family from New Jersey.
William and Alex are both family men who are great with kids…We love seeing this big smiles on little anglers!
After a long day of Sailfish releases for the boys, they finally let the old man take a turn and he released the final billfish of the day.
Great work by the mighty Wanderer and the Bernik Boys!
