Cary Clark’s family started off their big week of fishing with the flagship Wanderer. Master Captain William reports a nice Sailfish release at the top of the scorecard.
After the safe release, they scored BIG Dorado offshore.
Then they followed a school of spinning dolphins and switched to topwater casting.
They have a nice pile of Yellowfin Tunas to show for the effort.
On January 2, Elliot Marer’s group had a fantastic day on the big battleship Discoverer.
A Big Marlin was hooked up but spit the hook. Better luck next time!
PRO TIP: When a billfish jumps, point the rod straight out towards the fish (“Bow to the Master”). This usually prevents the line from loosening.
By the end of trip, Dorados and Yellowfin Tunas were stacked up thick in the fishbox.
Captain Antonio and Mate Raffa welcomed Jody Raivo’s family for an awesome day of catching on December 29.
A multitude of big Dorados filled up the fishbox.
They also diversified their haul by adding a nice stack of Yellowfin Tunas.
Chris Romeo’s family scored multiple nice Dorados with the Discoverer on December 22.
They also mixed in a tasty Yellowfin Tuna for variety.
Ian Maxwell’s family had a big performance on the mighty flagship Wanderer. Most importantly, the whole group got a crack at a blue water beastie:
They also scored a fantastic Sailfish release later in the day.
Randy Lovejoy and his family found great success on December 20 with a Sailfish release leading the scorecard.
The Discoverer released this monster as always, then set in on multiple Dorado scores.
“We had a WONDERFUL time today!” wrote Randy after the trip. “So glad we did the trip. Thank you!! And hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!”
Matt Kareman’s family scored multiple nice Dorados on the 16th with the Explorer.
It’s great to see everyone get a turn on reeling in these tasty greenies.
On November 22, the Wanderer welcomed Todd Duffy and Karen Brennan’s group for a full day of rod-bending action.
A nice pair of Sailfish releases topped the scorecard.
A big pile of Dorado were scored throughout the trip.
The Discoverer and Cole Clarkson’s family wouldn’t let this season end…the big battleship pushed the sun back up into the sky for one more day of Summer and scored TWO Blue Marlin releases on the last day of the season.
For their end of vacation dinner, this nice Yellowfin Tuna will be an excellent delicacy.
Cole Clarkson and his family scored a wonderful Marlin release with the Discoverer on August 25.
After the trophy release, they added a nice Dorado for the dinner table. Excellent work by this Virginia-based fishing family.
