More sweet billfish releases for the Wanderer on February 3!
Captain William has established a sterling reputation for consistency, and he has certainly hit his stride this season.
Late in the day they got this Black Marlin on the line and brought him all the way to the boat for a clean safe release.
Safe releases all around by Mate Johnson ensure that we’ll see more of these awesome monsters again.

In the afternoon the Wanderer took Shelly Peters’ boys offshore and found the fish of a lifetime around 2pm.
This monster Blue Marlin easily weighs over 400lbs. and is the kind of fish that most anglers work their entire lives to conquer.
Amazing work by these young anglers, who also added a nice Sailfish release late in the day:
Roosters in the morning and Billfish in the evening…the flagship proves again why she is the best boat in Costa Rica!

So of course the one day that the camera fails is the day you catch and release a MAMMOTH Black Marlin…those are the breaks!

Eric Dixon continues his dominance of the blue water with a monstrous Marline release reported on November 28 by Captain Carlos on the Discoverer.
Estimated at 250lbs.-300lbs., this beast was safely released by Mate Juan Carlos so we expect to catch her again once she gets even bigger.
Later in the day the Dixon boys pulled of an awesome Double Sailfish release, once again featuring expert fish-handling by Juan Carlos.

The Explorer finished of the month with a hot streak of great catches. This Marlin scored by Tyler Hawes is clearly the leader of the pack:
Then the barroom brawler started racking up Sailfish releases by the bunches.
It’s wasn’t just trophy releases being scored by the Super panga; Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin also filled up the icebox with Dorado and Yellowfin Tuna:
Also, local diver Gustavo Villalobos Jiménez took a quick ride out of the bay and dove down for a pair of tasty Langostas (lobsters):
Fantastic action from the baddest 26-foot boat in the country!
