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.
Captain Fico and Mate Elias have delivered white-hot action to their clients this month on the Explorer.
These guys have the 28-foot super panga dialed-in and their results are proof that you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish.
The Sailfish bite is on strong with the barroom brawler knocking out several Sails, including some Double Sailfish releases (above).

Rooster fish releases have also been a constant this month for the Explorer:
It’s not all trophy releases, either. The fish box on the super panga has stayed bloody with reports of big Dorado and feisty Yellowfin Tunas:
Our buddyย Alan Kenter barnstormed down for a quick fishing trip with the battleship Discoverer.
This big Rooster fish release is among the biggest of the year so far, and was followed by a second nice pez gallo:
The inshore triumphs were followed up by a sweet Double Sailfish release:
Scott Whitehead and his family had a sweet day on the Wanderer on March 11.
This Rooster fish release was a great start to the day, which also featured offshore action with high-flying Sailfish.
Safe releases by Mate Johnson as always.
“Captain William was great!” wrote Scott in an email, “2 Roosters and 4 Sail releases. ย Lost two sails as well so it wouldโve been a huge day with those!”
After two days of record-breaking Sailfish releases the Discoverer stayed inshore on the 10th with client Mike Lydle and scored a pair a fat Rooster Fish releases.
Nice work by Captain Carlos and Mate Juan Carlos.

Brian Burke and Vicky Zelen had a big day of trophy fish releases on March 6, starting with this nice Rooster fish:
Then they headed offshore and scored this sweet Double Sailfish Release:
Great work by the unstoppable Explorer!
James Constable is a tough-as-nails Tampa, FL area angler who is no stranger to big catches offshore and near shore.
On March 5 Captain Alex got him going with several nice Rooster Fish releases.
In the afternoon they put away the spinning rods and headed offshore about 10 miles where the Sailfish were stacked up and hungry.
Great work in the cockpit by Mate Kevin to coordinate this high-flying action.
The Harvester booked a short 2.5 hour afternoon trip on the 4th, but that was plenty of time to knock the Rooster Fish off of this client’s bucket list.
A fish of a lifetime for some, but just quick work for the Mega Panga!
Javier and Marino took a little time off from running Nosara Paradise Rentals to ply the reefs off Garza with the Explorer.
After this early Rooster fish release, they loaded the fishbox with four tasty Snappers:
Great end to another great day in paradise!
David Brand is my kind of fisherman: He arrived in Nosara for a five night stay and fished all four days from sunrise to sunset on the mega panga Harvester.
His dedication to fishing yielded rewards early and often with multiple Sailfish releases on the first day.
They also nabbed a Yellowfin tuna to keep them fed for the week.
On day three the Sailfish were thick as cord-wood and Captain Alex masterfully hunted down these high flyers.
After a whopping twelve Sailfish releases, David Brand opted to head inshore a little early to hunt another exotic trophy fish:
This 30+lbs. Rooster Fish was the perfect send-off to a great week of fishing on the Harvester.
