Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara
Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
On August 2, Captain Alex rounded up some of the co-workers from the Casa Bianca jobsite and took them to the offshore meat market.
The Harvester performed beautifully, delivering more than a dozen of these much-needed filets to the Nosara community. Check out Grevan with these awesome Yella fellas:
The worlds a little crazy on land, but 0n the Harvester it’s a nice normal day on the water.
Our amazing crew has been working hard these last few months on the construction of Casa Bianca, so when Javier asked if he could launch one of the boats for a relaxing fishing time the answer was “Of course!”
Captain Alex and Mate Wilson of the Harvester found some nice Yellowfin Tunas just a few miles off of the beach. Alexander, Grevan, and Marino were happy to have these filets on ice.
Then, they spotted a large macha of porpoises a little bit further offshore. A funny thing happened on the way to the porpoise pod.
A 400+lbs. Blue Marlin caught up with a single lure that Captain Alex left in the water while in transit, and struck it while the Harvester was clipping along at 20 knots!
That is a new level of high-speed trolling! Safely battled by Foreman Dieter and released by Mate Wilson, this release is now part of the Harvester‘s untouchable legacy.
The Wanderer broke in her new motors with Nosara Paradise Rentals grounds crew members Grevan Hernandez and Dieter for a quick trip to the fish market.
Great work by our mechanic Oldemar on the new motor installation.
Later that week the flagship welcomed angler Dan Bofinger for a full day of action on the 27th.
After a few nice Dorado scores to start the day, they finished up with a nice run of Sailfish releases.
Great work by Captain William and the mighty Wanderer!
Most of the boats are on the hill for their annual refit and repaint to prepare for the new season. But Javier and Grevan felt the fishing itch, so they took the Transporter out to the reef and scored a boatload of Yellowfin Tunas in just under two hours.
That’s right, the Transporter…our 14-foot ferry boat that our clients know well from the trip from Playa Garza out to the boats.
Well, um….two things here: 1.) This is the boat record for the Transporter, and 2.) You know how we always say you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish in Nosara? This is what we are talking about.
The staff of Nosara Paradise Rentals got out on the water on August 28 to celebrate the end of another great fishing season.
They scored a good variety of fish, exemplified by the Yellowfin Tunas. El Jefe also nabbed this nice Snapper later in the day.
Great work by the best staff in Costa Rica.
