We love all out clients, but it is a special treat when we can welcome a professional charter captain and his group to our little stretch of blue water paradise.

Marvin Steiding brought the whole crew from his South Florida-based Reel Candy Sportfishing operation for a few days of blue water action on theย Discoverer.

After some early success on Sailfish, they brought it inshore and scored big on Rooster fish.

This Pacific species is certainly a fun catch for these Jupiter, FL based pros.

They also added a few Dorados for the dinner table…great action all around for the Reel Candy team!

The Discoverer is still fishing during September while almost every other boat in the country is on the hill…just because fisherman take a break for the rainy season doesn’t mean the fish do.

Ryan Torbert and his posse proved it on September 14 when they scored a pair of Rooster fish releases. The first one was a bit puny, but the second was a very respectable 20+lbs.

Nice work by the battleship!

The Adventurer‘s hot streak of Rooster Fish releases continued into late August, with some 40lbs.+ pez gallos meeting their match.

Captain Fico continues to master the art of Rooster wrangling, as evidenced by these photos.

Of course the 23-foot switchblade can always be counted on for some meat…check out this 15lbs. Cierro Mackeral:

All in a day’s work for the inshore assassin!

The staff of Nosara Paradise Rentals took some much-deserved time off on the 26th to celebrate Marino, Alejandro, and Grevan’s birthdays. They joined Captain William on the Wanderer for an afternoon of inshore fishing and scored this sweet Rooster Fish release:

Later they enjoyed some tasty cake back at the campus.

Happy Birthday fellas!

Captain David is dialed-in on the Discoverer and his clients reaped the rewards this month.

Sailfish releases have been plentiful, headlined by this 200lbs.+ monster:

The big battleship backed that up with several more great releases:

Meat fish have been on the menu for Captain David’s clients, with Yellowfin Tuna ranging from 20lbs. to well over 50lbs.

Most recently Craig scored a sweet Rooster Fish release:

Chad Grimes and his posse of North Carolina anglers put a hurtin’ on the inshore reef dweller on August 18 with the flagship Wanderer.

This monster Rooster fish release at the start of the day was just the tip of the iceberg.

They followed up with a MAMMOTH Cubera Snapper (unusual for so early in the day) and then added a late-day Rooster fish release.

Great work from our friends from CCA North Carolina!

Captain Fico has been rocking and rolling on the 23-foot Adventurer this month. Check out these excellent catches:

From Queen Snappers to Jack Crevelle, Captain Fico has the inshore reefs dialed-in and is providing big smiles for his clients:

Captain Fico snagged a Rooster fish of his own on an off day in mid-August.

Nice “day off” for Garza Bay’s fastest rising star.

Captain Fico on the 23-foot Adventurer continues to dominate the inshore species with some remarkable catches to close out the month of July.

This Cubera Snapper is a typical catch for the switchblade, despite the coral green waters inshore.

Captain Fico had a big day on July 26 with a wide variety of edibles on ice…this Ponpano is certainly one of the biggest of the year so far for the whole team:

As if the ceviche wasn’t filling enough, this couple also scored a nice Yellowfin Tuna for filets and sushi:

They closed out the day with this 30 lbs. Rooster fish release.

Great performances from the up-and-coming Captain Fico!
