The last one of the day was arguable the highest-flyer…look at this dance this one put on for the crew:
The barroom brawler Explorer closed out the month with a wide variety of great action with clients Britta and Sam Gramer .
Very energetic Sailfish release by this young angler, but the Explorer also mopped up inshore, including this big old Amberjack:
This pair of Rooster Fish releases are certainly bucket-list worthy:

After this monster release, Mrs. Korsgaard scored a sweet Sailfish release:

As a parting shot, Jan and his family snatched up a few Tunas for the dinner table. That’s how you round out a day on the water!
Fantastic day by the mega panga Harvester with client Greg Henry reporting a wide variety of great catches. The early strikes were these nice-sized Yellowfun Tuna. and big Dorados:
