The Explorer performed brilliantly on February 9 with Norman Lindsey scoring a very challenging Double Sailfish release.
This would be the clear-cut highlight for most trips, but Norman also nagged a wonderful 50+lbs. Dorado.

Shane Whealton finished off his week of fishing in style on February 8 with the Harvester reporting a 71lbs. Dorado catch; this is clearly the largest of the year so far.
This big bad bull hit two different baits, but the mega panga’s crew calmly coordinated the fight to prevent tangles.
The Whealton boys were joined by FishingNosara’s Northeast Rep Mark Cooney for this fishin’ mission. Their scorecard was marked up with multiple Sailfish releases.
Busy day for Mate Wilson overseeing the releases of these monsters.
Great work by the Harvester and her crew!
