Neil and his group spent 2.5hr. with Captain William on the Wanderer starting at the crack of 7am. They ended up with more delicious filets on ice before noon then most people get in a week.

This Congrio was one of three that the Wanderer put on ice. They followed that with the largest Red Grouper of the season…take a look at this hog:

These Red Groupers have been in the area since the last full moon and we’ll see if they stick around as the full moon nears. Great morning for the FishingNosara flagship Wanderer!

John Higgins and his fellow Vermonters returned to the shores of Garza for another adventure with Captain David of the Explorer.ย 

The highlight of the feast was a pair of Groupers estimated to weigh 30lbs. The also had a big Marlin coming calling but the monster spit out the hook before it could be set. Still, plenty of filets in the cooler and lots of fun for this great group of Green Mountaineers.

You gotta wake up pretty early in the morning to call yourself the pound-for-pound champ, so the Explorer had her lines out at the crack of the sun this morning. Captain David kept client Thompson Rains and his group on the fish and the rods were bent all morning.

This was Captain David’s first of two trips for the day; great job on the early morning bite by the Explorer.

Captain David has been delivering memorable Sunset fishing trips for his clients. Check out this multi-species evening:

Their 2.5 hour session yielded (from L to R) a Red Grouper, a Yellowfin Tuna, a White Tuna, and a nice Congrio. These guys made it back to shore just in time to get these filets to a restaurant…sounds like the perfect evening!

No let up from the boys on the FishingNosara flagship Wanderer! Captain William and First Mate Alex bid farewell to Josh Luke after his incredible marlin release, then welcome Colin Conces and his family for a Sunset cruise.

The family had great success on the Red Grouper that have swarmed into the area the last few days, boating a nice stack of filets for the dinner table.

Mr. Conces also added this delicious White Tuna to the sushi plate. Another relaxing yet fruitful Sunset family fishing trip from the comfy Wanderer.

Nosara Paradise Rentals GM Javier Hernandez took a quick 2.5 hr Sunset cruise with Captain David on the Explorer and el jefe pulled in reef monsters that would cause the most refined palette to salivate.

These Red Groupers are far and away the most delicious of the Grouper family and the Congrio is legendary for its tasty white meat. From monster snook to inshore assaults Senior Javier has the tools and the talent to bring home the bacon. Yummy!

Neal Jerome and his group took to the Wanderer for a 2.5 hr. excursion and they found a plethora of Red Groupers hovering on the reefs below.This is just seven of the Groupers they put on ice:

These tasty morsels are somewhat common around here but that doesn’t make them any less delicious or fun to catch.

They caught nine of these colorful Groupers in less than three hours. Excellent fishing by these California anglers on the magnificent Wanderer.

The Wanderer hosted Charles and his family for a fun-filled day on the water on February 9. They had some unique catches over the reef and took a few minutes out for an impromptu Snorkeling trip.

Charles broke the ice with this fine Red Grouper caught on a slow troll. Notice the spearfishing boat in the background; this is a crafty move by Captain William to utilize the commotion caused by the divers to coax these bottom dwellers up to the surface.

Mom followed up with a tasty White Tuna caught on a planer/spoon rig and was the first of two tasty White Tunas.

White Tuna are incredibly tasty to eat. Don’t take our word for it…ask this Red Grouper:

They capped off their morning trip with a nice swim just outside of Garza Bay. Great fishing and great fun on the Wanderer.
