Shane Whealton and his father joined Captain David on the 4th and posted one of the best days in the eight-year history of the Adventurer.
This amazingly large Rooster Fish release was the start of this legendary day, which also yielded one of the biggest Jack Crevalles we have ever caught.
The afternoon was dotted with small Tuna catches, highlighted by a pair of 20lbs. Yellowfin Tunas.
Captain David runs this boat alone (meaning no mate) which means the grisly work of fileting this boatload of fish falls to him.
Amazing haul by the 23-foot inshore assassin Adventurer.
Captain Fico delivered the goods for anglers Wendy Oberg and Richard Wenk on the 22nd. They started out with an inauspicious first catch as this bird stole a bait from behind the boat.
After the bird was sefely released, these anglers scored a tasty Yellowfin Tuna for the dinner table.
Then the Explorer moved inshore and captured this lovely Rooster Fish.
Safe released as always. Great work by these Wisconsin-based anglers on a short 5hr. trip.
John Shellhorn and Jim Freyburger fished with Captain Carlos on the Discoverer on February 25th.
They scored a Sailfish release early in the trip, then moved inshore for a great Rooster Fish release.
They rejoined the battleship on the 26th and finished off their time in Nosara with this amazing Cubera Snapper catch and release.
Here is the email John sent us after the trip:
Hi Craig!
Finally back in country and wanted to thank you for a great trip.
My wife and her friend Mary had never caught a billfish and on the Wanderer, caught four each in two days including a double hook-up. They were thrilled and will be talking about that for a long time.
I caught a nice 38 pound rooster and my friend Jim caught a nice Cuberra snapper while fishing the last two days with Captain Carlos on the Discoverer. Although we only fished a half day on our last day, our group total for the four days of fishing came to 13 sails, 6 tuna, 1 rooster and 1 snapper.
You guys have an excellent operation and we had an awesome trip! Your staff are incredible at their jobs and your facility offers world class fishing! It was great to get to spend a little time with you and we are really appreciative of an awesome trip. Will continue to spread the word (and pictures).
The resilient Ed Parker had to wait out a freak wind storm in mid-December. On his rescheduled trip Captain David hunted down this excellent Rooster Fish release.
