The Discoverer scored a sweet Sailfish release on the 7th.
Kimberly Curley posted this online: “Great day fishing on Discoverer with Capt. Carlos and 1st mate David. We landed a huge Sailfish and 6 beautiful Mahi. Carlos was expert in the operation of the boat, assisting with fighting the fish and landing them safely. David was relentless checking and changing the bait and teasers for optimal attraction and catching multiple species.”
