Costa Rica Fishing Report from FishingNosara
Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
FishingNosara Hall of Famer Paul Worthington returned to Nosara to add to his legacy, and on July 8 this Florida angler scored this awesome Blue Marlin release.
Later in the trip they added an awesome Sailfish release to the scorecard.
In addition to the trophy releases, Team Worthington put several big Yellowfin Tunas in the icebox.
Mark Andrews’ group was back on July 4 and as part of their Independence Day celebration they liberated this massive 42lbs. Dorado from the sea.
This floor sweeper was backed up with another monster Mahi Mahi
Several big Yellowfin Tunas were also added to this mix; a great follow up to their Ahi haul from earlier in the week.
Finally, Mark got hooked into a BIIIIGGG Black Marlin with a spinning reel.
Wait a minute…how is he trying to fight a Marlin with a spinning reel? What could possibly lead someone into bringing a knife to a bazooka fight?
Oh, well that explains it. Anyhow the Black Marlin only fought for a few moments before it spit the hook.
Still, a great day from the Harvester!
Here’s the message Mark sent us: “Just wanted to thank everyone involved for such a great vacation. Great place to visit, great fishing, and wonderful people in Costa. Debra and myself had a great time. Thanks so much.”

After a few days on the water, the Wayne Voswinkel group finally hit paydirt on June 22 with TWO Marlin releases reported by the big battleship Discoverer.
Great work on this pair of fish-of-a-lifetime by these Texas anglers!
Wayne Voswinkel’s group got a big week of fishing underway on June 20, with the Wanderer scoring a nice Yellowfin Tuna for the dinner table.
They also dug in against a big Blue Marlin, but this monster spit the hooks before we could bring him alongside for a picture.
The Harvester took Chuck Harris and his group along for a big bill fish battle on June 13, nabbing this wonderful Marlin release with these North Florida anglers.
All this billfish battling can work up an appetite, so it was a good thing that Chuck scored this floor-sweeping Dorado for the dinner table.
The Chuck Harris group kept the good times rolling with an awesome day of action on June 12. The highlight was this mega Marlin release.
They spent the remainder of the day hauling in Dorados, some of them in the 50+lbs. range.
Even some late-day rain showers wasn’t enough to stop this wily group of Northwest Florida anglers.
Great job by Captain Alex and the Harvester!
Jeff Broome posted the trip of the year so far with Captain Alex on June 11. First off was a true Double Sailfish release.
After the safe release of both fish, they added a third Sailfish for good measure.
Then the real monster came calling as the Harvester reports another MASSIVE Marlin release (the second in two days):
Amazing work by Captain Alex, Mate Wilson, and these Jacksonville anglers.
Here’s what Jeff had to say in an email:
Craig & Matt,
Pura Vida!
Jeff Broome scored the fish of a lifetime with Captain Alex on June 10. Get a load of this MASSIVE Marlin release.
Kevin Piechowiak knocked it out of the park on June 1 with the Discoverer. This monster Blue Marlin was the highlight of the trip.
After the release of this giant they also added a nice Sailfish release.
This group also came home with some filets, thanks to these Yellowfin Tunas.
Captain Alex scored an amazing Marlin release on the Harvester to put a fitting ending on a great month of fishing.
What a monster!
