Newlyweds Daniel and Vicky Martinko brought their talents over to the Super Panga and the Explorer scored excellent fish for these clients. Check out this mammoth Wahoo:
Daniel followed up with a pair of big Rooster fish releases:
Great work by Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin for these awesome anglers!
Daniel and Vicky Martinko kept their hot streak alive on the mighty Wanderer with a pleathora of sweet Sailfish releases.
Check out the #Sailfie …awesome!
The monsters were fired up and skywalking for these Tallahassee-based newlyweds.
Captain William kept this couple on the bite all day long, and First Mate Alex was there to see to the safe releases.
Don’t let her good looks fool you…Vicky is a tough-as-nails angler. Check out the billshot by Mrs. Martinko:
Daniel Martinko and his bride Vicky celebrated their honeymoon on the Explorer with a fantastic Double Sailfish release.
They backed that up with several more Sails, including this beauty reeled in by Vicky:
Captain Carlos kept the pedal to the metal and scored several more super Sailfash to round out the day.
The late-night rains have helped to stir up the sea life in the near-shore area. The fresh cool water rushing out of the mountains creates a perfect estuary for boiling balls of baitfish.
Captain William found this bait pod on April 23 with client Claire Casazza and her friends. They worked this bait school hard and caught this excellent Cubera Snapper:
In the early afternoon they added a nice 20lbs. Rock Snapper to the menu:
The final fish of the day was the biggest…this whopper Snapper tips the scales way over 30lbs.
Excellent work by these ladies!
Our old pal Hubble Keller brought the whole family down for a few days of fishing fun in Costa Rica. Three generations of Kellers were onboard for a combination inshore/offshore trip on the Wanderer.ย
After this nice Sailfish release, the flagship retreated inshore to ply the 80-foot waters over Pincha Padre.
The big boys were a little sleepy, but the group still had action on some Bonitas and Jack Crevelles…nothing for the dinner table but a bunch of fun nonetheless.

It was Sailfish day on the Discoverer as Eddie Showalter’s group scored a bunch of sweet pez vela releases:
They were coming in on all sides but Captain David and Mate Juan Carlos kept the pressure on, yielding great results.
Our good friend Eddie Showalter returned to Costa Rica for another foray into the blue water, and brought his friends Mike Neeland and Laura Lanoue.
Laura was thrilled to see that one of her prior conquests is immortalized in our Guiones Beach Office.
She repeated her Sailfish success on the Discoverer with this outstanding release:
She also added a fine Rooster fish release, and got an up close look at a mean old shark.
Safely returned to the water by Mate Juan Carlos, this pez gallo is quite a fish-catching accomplishment.
The Discoverer scored again for Captain Sergio’s group with another sweet Sailfish release:
BOOM!
The Discoverer delivered the goods for Sergio’s Costa Rica Adventurers Loren and Viv Keen, James and Christie Lawson, and Frank and Susan Kinsinger.
After some early morning Sailfish releases, they scored a big hit with this Double Sailfish Release:
Great work by the big battleship Discoverer.
The Wanderer finished the month with another high-flying Sailfish battle.
This monster gave the flagship everything she wanted, but the Wanderer prevailed with a safe Sailfish release.
