Marcie Buxton reached the mountaintop of blue water fishing on January 22, besting this wonderful Blue Marlin with Captain Alex and the Harvester.
Fresh off the safe Marlin release, the mega panga squared up for a fight with a monstrous Yellowfin Tuna.
This Dorado rounded out a full scorecard for Team Buxton.
Great job by Captain Alex and the People’s Champion Harvester!
Captain Alex delivered the goods on January 21 with these guys running the gamut on Doardos and Yellowfin Tunas.
John Harbord’s boys kept the fire burning on January 17 as the Harvester delivered big catches. This monster Dorado was the highlight of the trip:
Swarms of Sailfish were ready to fight in the afternoon, and found these Tampa-anglers ready for battle.
Ryan Orr and the Harvester went toe-to-toe with several Sailfish. Check out these beauties:
Tampa angler John Harbord has returned to Nosara after 8 long years. He was enshrined in the FishingNosara Hall of Fame on the strength of our first ever Billfish Grand Slam:
This is back when we used to take the fish out of the water, a practice we abandoned in 2014 to ensure billfish safety.
They reunited with Captain Alex on the 15th and got right back to business with multiple Sailfish releases.
Dinner is on deck due to whopper Wahoos.
Amazing catches by the People’s Champion Harvester.
On January 9 the Harvester delivered a true fish of a lifetime for the Boriack family. Check out this monster Marlin:
Captain Alex welcomed angler Stephen Boriack on January 7 and they went to battle with Sailfish.
Great work on the safe handling and release of these majestic creatures.
Stephen Boriack’s group and the Harvester got it popping on the 5th with several excellent Sailfish releases.
Don’t laugh at this juvenile Sailfish…it is exponentially harder to successfully drop the bait into the mouth of this smaller pelagic.
They also hooked up a nice bit of Mahi-Mahi for the evening meal.
David Mackenzie joined the mega panga for a fun day of offshore fish fighting, and they came away with a pair of excellent Sailfish releases.
They also added a bunch of Dorados to keep their own appetites at bay.
Awesome day from Captain Alex!
Captain Alex started 2020 with a great run to the blue water. The morning session was dominated by big Sailfish releases and giant Dorado scores.
The afternoon session was more of the same, with rod-bending action reported all the way until sundown.
Great work by the mega panga Harvester!
