Dan Bowman and his girls had such a good time on the Wanderer on April 19 that he signed up for a return engagement on the morning of April 25 with the Explorer.

Well it turns out lightning can strike twice, as proved by this grand array of fresh fish filets.

For the afternoon session, Captain Fico welcomed Shawn Cline and Philip Yim. They also found great blue water success on the Super Panga.

This super Sailfish release was backed up by more nice Yellowfin Tunas.

Awesome work by Captain Fico and the Explorer.

FishingNosara Hall of Famer Chuck Darner invited Florida Sportsman Radio host Roger Walker for a fun week of action.

After lighting it up on the Harvester on the 23rd, they moved up to the Wanderer for a productive day offshore on the 24th. Roger got it started with this nice big Dorado.

Chris nabbed this schoolie Dorado, then hooked up a nice Sailfish.

Nice clean release by Mate Johnson of this monsters.

Then Captain William headed offshore and pursued a big school of porpoises. When they are packed in this thick you know that there is something tasty just beneath the surface.

Chuck Darner got in on the feeding frenzy with this sweet Dorado.

Then Roger Walker got in on the action with this beefy Yellowfin Tuna, clearly the best fish of the day:

Near the end of the day Chris hooked up another big Sailfish, which put on an aerial display on the way to a safe release.

Great work by Captain William to deliver the goods for these Northeast Florida angling legends.

Dan Bowman brought his kids along for a very memorable day of fishing with Captain William on the 19th.

Check out what Dan had to say:

Craig,

Best fishing trip EVER — and I got to enjoy it with Chloe and Sophie, my 4.5 year old daughters! William and Johnny were the best.

We fought through a slow morning with a huge Cubera snapping off on the reef to landing 3 Sailfish in the early afternoon (the first two being a double hookup which was super exciting) to be followed up with a monster Dorado on the way home.

My girls had the best time ever, as did I! Memories to last a lifetime. Thank you and your crew for being so accommodating! Can’t wait to come back and go out again!

HUGE THANKS!

Cheers,

Dan Bowman

The Wanderer started April on a tear. Check out this sweet pair of Sailfish released pulled off by the mighty flagship

The action was also strong inshore, highlighted by this sweet Rooster Fish release:

Like the rest of the team, Captain William was on the scene to gather the big Dorados that came sweeping through the area during the first week of April.
