Laura Blair and her family scored five super Sailfish releases with Captain Carlos on the 27th.
“We had an awesome time…Fishing was the highlight – Captain Carlos and Kevin were an excellent team and provided top tier service as we landed a tuna and 5 sailfish. ย We had some great tuna sashimi and seared tuna steaks provided by the fish my daughter caught within the first 10 minutes of putting the lines out!”
Thanks again,
Laura Blair

The Dowell Family joined the Discoverer on December 21 and their half-day adventure was rewarded with a nice Sailfish.
The Sails are starting to show up in late-December, and our crews are stoked to see their return. After the billfish release, the big battleship scored a nice Dorado for the dinner table.
Great job by Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin.
John Hickson and his posse had a marvelous day on the Discoverer with multiple Sailfish releases, including several multi-hookups.
Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin did a wonderful job of keeping these monsters from hurting themselves during the battles, and safely released them as always.
A swarm of Dorados and Yellowfin Tunas will help this group replenish themselves for more fishing.
Greatjob by the big battleship Discoverer!
