Mega Marlin Alert on the Discoverer!
Great catch and release from the Steve Tietze group.
Captain Alex closed out the month of March was a legendary performance. This monster Marlin release was the big fish of the day.
They rounded out the haul with Sailfish realeses and Dorados on ice.
Great job by the mega panga!
The Wanderer welcomed Howard Nifoussi and his family for a fantastic day of fishing on March 30.
They had several nice Yellowfin Tuna and Dorado catches. This is the time of year where both species overlap and it’s great to see such results.
Young Mr. Nifoussi scored a sweet Sailfish releses for the trophy case.
They also got hooked up to a MONSTER Marlin and fought his bravely for a while.
Not sure if this the the same 800lbs. fish the Explorer tangled with earlier in the week.
The Discoverer nagged an awesome Blue Marlin release with Leslaw and Barbara Gredysa’s family on March 29.
Amazing performance from this fun Sandlot full of kids!
Master Captain William and the Wanderer delivered a monster Marlin release for Ken Russell on March 26.
What a great accomplishment! The Marlin release was backed-up with three nice Sailfish releases but Misti Nolan, Brenda Russell, and Larry ‘Captain Lorenzo’ Komenda.
For the fishbox they nagged six Yellowfin Tunas.
Great work by Team Russell
William Blocher scored TWO fish-of-a-lifetime on March 25 with Captain Fico reporting a pair of Marlin releases.
“Captain Fico put me on the fish straight away,” wrote Bill in an email.
Amazingly, this was on a 5 hour half day trip.
Excellent fish-handling by Mate Antonio to ensure the safe survival of this wonderful.
Also late in the day they hooked up another marlin estimated at 700lbs.-800lbs.
Touched the leader and released. Thought the only photo we have so far is this Bigfoot-esque blurry shot, this fish is a real monster.
The FishingNosara team hit a Marlin dry-spell in the middle of March, but Captain Fico on the Explorer scouted far offshore and found one on the 19th.
The very next day Captain Carlos capitilzed on that intelligence and found a Black Marlin of his own near the same area.
Teamwork makes the dream work, right?
After the Marlin release, Tom Schwaab’s group also scored a Sailfish release and put a few Yellowfin Tunas in the filet bag.
Great work by the big battleship Discoverer.
The Explorer had lots of good catches near-shore in mid March, but on the 19th Captain Fico went way offshore to check on the action 30+ miles out.
His faith was rewarded with this big Black Marlin lurking far offshore.
Great release by the Explorer!
Nate Goldstein and his family had a wonderful day on the Discoverer on March 14. The highligh of the day was this sweet Marlin fight, captured on video from the tower by Captain Carlos.
This one got away, but a nice Pacfic Sailfish wasn’t so wily.
After the safe release, they also kept the rods bent with several Yellowfin Tunas.
“Carlos and Kevin were fantastic.” Nate wrote in an email. “Kept it moving for the kids, good and mellow vibe, great communication and forethought. Thank you for running a tight ship.”
Cary Clark joined the Discoverer on the 10th for an action-packed day of offshore fishing.
They fought a big Black Marlin in the afternoon, while earlier in the day they scored a Double Sailfish release.
Great work by Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin on the safe releases.
