They scored many more Sailfish throughout the trip.
Great work by the super panga.
Jason Sandmaier and his son performed beautifully on the Adventurer on the 21st, so much so that two days later they brought the ladies along for a day with Captain Carlos on the Explorer.
The super panga delivered the goods with five Sailfish released throughout the trip.
Excellent fish-handling by Mate Kevin to see all these fish safely released.
Great work by this fun fishing family.
Scott Ramsay brought the family along for a great day of fishing on the Discoverer.
These Alabama anglers followed up a morning Sailfish release with a sweet stack of Yella Fellas.
The Discoverer‘s hot streak continued with a sweet morning Sailfish release.
Later in the day they piled up a nice pile of filets from Yellowfin Tuna, Dorado, and Snapper:
Great variety from Captain David on the battleship.
Angler Sterling Johnson enjoyed an excellent day of Yellowfin Tuna action on June 16.
These big Yella Fellas are starting to arrive to our area and the are feeding hard on bait schools.
Needless to say we are all over this invasion of Yellow Submarines.
The Discoverer also scored a Sailfish to round out the scorecard. Great day from the battleship.
Record breaking day on the Adventurer as the 23-footer scored SIX Sailfish releases on a single trip!
Angler Sterling Johnson cemented his place in the FishingNosara Hall of Fame with this ridiculous performance.
In the two-year history of this boat only seven Sailfish had ever been released, so nearly doubling that total in one day is amazing.
In more incredible is that Captain Fico managed to coordinate the fights, capture the bill and release all six Sailfish with no harm done to the fish.
Amazing work by Captain Fico and the Adventurer.
Captain Carlos is scoring big on the Explorer, and on June 12 he took a trio of young anglers for a ride to Sailfish City.
These releases are all excellent accomplishments for these youngsters.
“The day was all about perseverance,” writes Patrick Vincent. “It was a little disheartening to see a giant blue marlin smash the teaser before we even had a bait in the water this morning. Then there was a slow morning bite.
Minutes after my afternoon nap, we were rewarded with a double header of sailfish. We quickly released twin 100lb Pacific sails.
Later in the day, we got to see one hell of a show. 200lb yellowfin tuna crashing sardines on the surface. I’ve never seen anything like 200lb yellow torpedoes going airborne while feeding!
What a great note to end our fishing on!
Well, the father/son billfish beatdown in Costa Rica has come to a close. We finished the week with 1 blue marlin, 2 striped marlin, and 11 sailfish. I’m back in Atlanta safe and sound, I guess it’s time to go back to the real world.
Mike Burling’s boys scored the biggest Dorado of the month on a wonderful June 11 trip with Captain William on the Wanderer.
This monster will definately keep the crew fed!
They also hooked up a nice Sailfish to round out the day.
Our great friend Richard Moran and his family took to the Discoverer for a fun day of Sailfish action.
Great to see such a pretty fish for this Jacksonville, FL fishing family!
Later in the day the battlewagon squeezed in a 2.5 hour Sunset trip and still found a Sailfish!
It don’t get much better than that!
