The Harvester got the New Year off to a great start, scoring big with this stunning 300lbs. Blue Marlin release.
Great fight from Captain Alex and superb fish handling by Mate Kevin to see this wonderful monster released.
Later on they followed up with a great Sailfish release.
The Mega Panga is rocking and rolling for 2017, which spells trouble for big blue water beasties.
Our old pal Joe Driscoll is back for another fishing adventure; his group of friends mugged the fish last January, and now he has returned with his sons for more blue water action.
The highlight was this beefy Striped Marlin release, quite an accomplishment for a young angler.
Team Driscoll also filled the Harvester‘s fishboxes with a swarm or lovely Dorados.
All smiles for this great family of Jacksonville, FL anglers!
Doc Hatton, Dennis Shanahan, Fred Lewis and Rick Downing had a great day with huge results on the mega panga Harvester. The day started with a true fish-of-a-lifetime…take a gander at this awesome Blue Marlin:
Great fish handling by Mate Kevin to ensure the safety of both fish and anglers. After the safe release, Captain Alex criss-crossed the area hoping to find more fired-up billfish.
After an hour of trolling a second bad Blue Marlin took the hook.

Another great release by the Mega Panga!
Captain Alex kept his foot on the gas as Team Hatton knocked-out a pair of high-flying Sailfish releases to end the day.
This one broke off the leader right next to the boat, but what an amazing display of above-the-water combat.
This release brought to a close a crazy day of action the the mighty Harvester.
The Harvester welcomed our good buddy Doc Hatton and his posse for a three-day blue water battle. The first day got off to a great start with Captain Alex reporting a monstrous Sailfish releases.
After the safe release, the Mega Panga moved inshore and pried up a wonderful Rooster fish:
Travis Buck enlisted the Harvester for a quick half day trip and was rewarded with a bundle of tasty Dorado filets.
Look’s like dinner is taken care of for the week!
Craig Sutton was on board the Harvester with his grandson Josh Page and this young man scored a MASSIVE Sailfish during his first taste of blue water action:
Nice fish-handling by Mate Kevin to ensure a quick safe release, and the next day showed off his own prowess on the reel:
The Harvester scores again as the fishing has certainly begun to improve after the Supermoon and the Hurricane did their best to interfere.
The Bill Harris group put in some excellent work on the Harvester in mid-November. Early in the trip they nabbed this world-class Sailfish release:
Then Mr. Harris buried the hooks in a swarm of big Dorados.
Ever wonder how we come up with our shirt designs? Inspiration abounds:
The posse scored another excellent Sailfish release to finish off the trip:
Great job by the baddest panga in Costa Rica!
Steve Machann picked up a world-class Rooster Fish on his trip with the Mega Panga Harvester.
Safe released after the photo, this 30lbs. monster is truly the fish of a lifetime!
Our old pal Eddie Delaney had a nice day on the Harvester on October 29th and found the bite to be equally good onshore and offshore.
After scoring this excellent Sailfish release, they moved inshore and nabbed this beefy Rooster fish release:
Great day by the boat that doesn’t know the meaning of the term “off-season”!
On October 26 Captain Alex took his group on a shopping trip to the Yellowfin Tuna aisle.
They piled the fishbox with filets over the course of three consecutive full days of fishing.
Great work by the Mega Panga!
