The battleship backed it up with four Sailfish releases throughout the day.


Great work by the big battleship!
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!
On March 1, multi-time Hall of Famer Dan Johnson joined the Wanderer and scored a Sailfish release and a Striped Marlin release.




Mr. Johnson has been fishing here for years, and even for an angler of his caliber this is an excellent day of action.



Fantastic work by the mighty flagship!
Eric Angermeier nagged an excellent Marlin release on the 15th with Captain William.



Fresh off the big Marlin release, Team Angermeier scored several sweet Sailfish releases.





Great work by the mighty flagship!

Our new buddy Steve Persinger scored the fish of a lifetime with this super Striped Marlin release on February 7.


Captain Carlos kept the Discoverer in the thick of the action, added this excellent Sailfish release:

Great fish handling by Mate Kevin ensures that we’ll see these beasts again one day.
Angler Mark Bradford posted the angling achievement of a lifetime with this excellent Blue Marlin the release on January 30.


Captain William reported this score in the middle of their morning 5-hour trip.


Amazing work by the mighty flagship Wanderer.
FishingNosara Hall of Famers Catherine Chase and Ron LaGro added to their legend on January 19 with Captain William. This sweet Striped Marlin led off a great day of action:



After Catherine’s release, Ron added a super Sailfish release.

They rounded out the morning with a nice stack of Dorado filets.


Jeff Capen made history on the Adventurer on January 15 with the SECOND EVER Marlin release on the panga.




This Blue Marlin release is a magnificent achievement on any boat, let alone the sneaky switchblade.



They also nabbed a few nice Dorados for the dinner table.
