The Wanderer welcomed a fun-loving group of Texas anglers on May 8.

Merritt and Brian Wruble, Nicole and Bubba Miles, Glenn and Dahni Bloomfield all brought great attitudes to the blue water and the big monsters were happy to pay a visit from below.

Two Sailfish were released throughout the trip, including this big one:

The highlight of the trip was this monster Blue Marlin releases; certainly a true fish-of-a-lifetime.

Great work by Captain William and this fun group of anglers…hold on to your hats because they have more trips planned this week.

The team endured a Marlin drought in mid April, but the keen-eyed Captain Carlos broke the streak on April 29 as the Discoverer nagged this awesome Blue Marlin release with anglers Dan and Natalia Kenel, Paul and Dee Wirsing and Mike and Gayle Fuchs.

They also nagged this sweet Sailfish release:

“Just wanted to send a note letting you know we had a wonderful time fishing on the Discoverer with Captain Carlos and Kevin.”

“In three days we caught one sailfish, one Marlin, and a tuna. Lost the other Marlin at the boat … but it was still a great day!”

“You all did a great job and we had a great time!”

Our new pal Chuck Boyer took a day off from his retreat over at Blue Spirit to pursue Blue Marlin, and the barroom brawler Explorer delivered the goods. Check out this beast:

They followed up with multiple nice Sailfish releases:

Amazing day of fishing — Fico & Johnny took great care of me! I really appreciate their patience w/ my limited spanish, but we made it work. My only regret was not being able to take a couple lovely Mahi filets into Nosara for a nice dinner.

Thanx to the Fishing Nosara Team for an awesome experience!
Chuck

(That’s “Senor Carlos” to Fico & Johnny)

All honest true praise!

My thanks also to Matt, Javier, & Yoseth for taking care of my local logistics. It’s those seemingly little tasks that can also make or break how a day kicks off.
You’ve got a top notch local family!

Pura Vida

Multi-time FishingNosara Hall of Famers Ken and Brenda Russell are back! Joined by their usual motley crew of Texas anglers including Larry Komenda and Misti Nolan, this good-vibes group threw down the gauntlet on their first day of fishing on the Wanderer.

After some early Sailfish action, Brenda shot to the top of the scoreboard with this MASSIVE Blue Marlin release:

Hold on to your hats folks…Team Russell will be here for two weeks and you know that they are ready for battle!

We are so close to the blue water that sometimes real magic can happen. Consider this report from March 9:

Rick Noonan headed offshore about 10 miles to the deep blue water, and immediately started scoring billfish.

Several nice Sailfish releases were backed up by a feisty Striped Marlin release.

Rather than stay offshore to pursue another Marlin (thus securing the ultra-rare Billfish Grand Slam), Captain Fico headed inshore and scored another trophy: This excellent Rooster fish.

The Explorer continues to amaze!

Great things are worth waiting for, and angler Mike Goins sent us some photos from his late February trips that are absolutely mind-blowing. First up is this nice Striped Marlin release from his trip on the 27-foot Explorer:

They he also nearly missed a Grand Slam on the Discoverer with this excellent Striped Marlin release backed up by a Sailfish release.

Great work by this fun-loving fisherman!
