Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
Captain Alex kept the Harvester close to shore on the 17th and scored big.
Kerri Handrigan’s group nabbed the first Rooster fish release came early in the day, and a second found the hooks just before noon.
The third and final Rooster Fish came calling at 1230pm, right before the end of the trip…Three nice trophy releases in just a five-hour trip!
Graham McMillan booked only 5 hours with Captain Alex on the 5th, but in this short time still scored crazy Dorado action.
Who says chicken can’t fly? These Dorados were fired up and flying all over the place!
It’s a great sign to see these big Dorados showing up in massive numbers as we start our second high season.
Captain Alex kept scoring late into the month with a great run of Sailfish releases.
Nice work by Mate Wilson on the safe handling release of these monsters.
Big Dorados have returned to the Nosara area, and Captain Alex is on the scene to haul these bad boys in.
Sheldon Gardiner had a big day on the Harvester with Captain Alex reporting excellent Sailfish action.
Great work by Mate Wilson on this safe release.
The Harvester is on a roll and we expect more great catches to finish the month.
Nick Lowe stayed close to shore on the 9th and scored a variety of yummy filets on board the Harvester.
This brightly-colored Rock Snapper was the catch of the day, and was backed up with a few nice Red Groupers and a Yellowfin Tuna.
The Harvester welcomed Alexander Dauwe for a great day of inshore action on the 5th, punctuated by a big Cubera Snapper catch and a nice Rooster Fish release.
The meat fish is great of course, but this trophy fish Rooster release is the angling accomplishment of a lifetime.
John Mader joined Captain Alex for a morning half day trip on March 1st and they brought home dinner in the form of this nice 35lbs. Cubera Snapper.
This size is right in the sweet spot for dense filet quality.
Great work by the mega panga!
David Kinney and the boys stayed inshore and filled the filet bag with two of our most tasty morsels.
These Congrios are a fish/eel hybrid which are a real challenge to catch. Did you know that these creatures have the ability to swim backwards?
Later on they boated several nice-sized Red Groupers, perfect for sandwiches.
Great work by the Harvester
The Harvester delivered the fish of a lifetime for angler Eric West with this amazing Blue Marlin release on February 25.
This hard-fighter submitted after a whirlwind 45 minute fight, and was safely revived and released by Captain Alex.
Great job by Eric West and the mega panga!
The billfish keep biting as client Ronald Carns reports an excellent Sailfish release from his February 24th half day trip.
