Captain Alex posted the trip of the season so far with Terry and Julie Edwards’ group loading up the trophy case with excellent releases.

This MASSIVE Blue Marlin was the headliner of the trip.

Shortly after that battle, the mega panga nabbed a wonderful Saifish release.

Team Edwards came inshore to finish the day, and saved the best for last…this Rooster Fish weighed 72lbs. according to the Boca Grip.

The IGFA All-Tackle Record is 114lbs., however the second place fish was 85lbs. This fish caught by the Harvester is close to the old record.

Most impressively, the record fish were in 1960 and 1954 respectively…clearly this size of Rooster Fish have not been seen in more than 5 decades.

Great work by Team Edwards and the mega panga Harvester!

David and Kevin Paredes joined Captain Alex on August 12 and continued their run of hot fishing both offshore and inshore.

This 34lbs. Rooster Fish release is a great addition to the trophy case, and was a harbinger of good things to come later in the day when they headed offshore.

The Harvester reports a 48lb. Yellowfin Tuna and two nice Dorados caught in the blue water offshore.

Captain Fico took angler Jeff Tomcsik offshore on July 30 and found the Sailfish laying in wait.

This aggressive high-flyer provided great fishing memories, while these Yellowfin Tuna weighed down the dinner table.

The next day they scored a true fish of a lifetime with this excellent Blue Marlin release.

They finished the day inshore and scored another awesome trophy fish releases with this Rooster Fish.

Our new friend Juan Levesque got off to a hot start in late July with a great day on the Explorer.

First up was this small Rooster Fish release.

Then the super panga headed offshore and pulled off a sweet Sailfish release.

They also put some excellent filets on ice, thanks to a pair of awesome Cubera Snappers.

Great work by Captain Fico and the barroom brawler Explorer!
