Another productive day for the Discoverer on May 22 with a trio of Sailfish releases and backed it up inshore with a nice Rooster fish.
A great group of anglers from CCA TX led by Richard Schultz were all smiles on this trip.
Great job by the Discoverer!
Sometimes the offshore bite ain’t happening, but the wily Captain Alex is deft enough to move inshore for world-class bottom fishing action.
Client Richard Shultz started out with a whopper of a Cubera Snapper, then scored a trophy-caliber Rooster fish.
Great work by the flexible Harvester!
Randy Hudson stayed inshore on May 20 and knocked big Rooster Fish off of his bucket list.
This sweet pez gallo was safely released after the picture as always.
The Super Panga is on an unstoppable tear with more great Sailfish releases reported.
The Explorer also released a bucket-list caliber Rooster fish.
Proof again that you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish in Costa Rica!
Adam Noviskie and his group did great work inshore and offshore with the battleship Discoverer on April 26.
They released a pair of Rooster Fish and iced a nice Snapper before heading offshore to tackle the big boys.
This Double release was the highlight of a day that featured eight total Sailfish releases.
All smiles on the Discoverer!
“Had a great morning fishing with Francisco and Elias,” writes Shane Murtagh. “They got us into 2 Gallo… I lost one, but landed the other… Here’s a shot for you.”
The Explorer is still on a fish-catching tear, with lots of Sailfish releases report by anglers of all ages:
On the rare occasion that the Sailfish bite offshore shuts down, the inshore Rooster fish have been around to save the day.
Great work by the 26-foot barroom brawler!
The Explorer continues to grow her reputation as a fly-weight fish-fighting weapon as many large fish have met their match.
This Double Sailfish release is certainly a highlight, and the combo of Captain Fico and Mate Elias have made big Sailfish releases a common occurrence on the super panga.
There has also been a nice run of Yellowfin Tuna which the Explorer has taken advantage of:
Most recently our great friends Ken and Brenda Russell along with Larry Komenda and Misti Nolan nabbed this sweet Rooster fish release:
Great work by the legendary Explorer!
The unstoppable Ken Russell continued his two week fishing adventurer with a wonderful inshore / offshore day with Captain Alex on the Harvester.
The Russells and Larry Komenda and Misti Nolan started out with a fine Rooster fish release, then moved offshore to tackle a big Pacific Sailfish.
You gotta love being this close to the blue water, and having a boat that can score two wildly different trophy releases in a single day.
Andrew Oblinger and his kids nailed a few nice Rooster fish on an afternoon half day with Captain Alex on the Harvester.
All Roosters were live released, just the way we like it.
