Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
Craig finished his three-day campaign on the Harvester with a rod-bending day of action. Our chief mechanic Marino was on the real for this fun Dorado catch.
Later in the afternoon the mega panga hooked up a supercharged Sailfish.
This monster put on a show, but Mate Wilson got the leader and pulled him alongside. The Sailfish spit the hook and escaped safely with the last laugh.
The first day of the season filled the refrigerator with Yellowfin Tuna filets, so on the second day Craig and Javier went hunting for trophy fish.
Javier belted up for the first Sailfish of the day. This crazy beauty was darting back in forth above the water.
After a nice battle she was safely released as always.
Craig was next into the breach and waged an epic battle with a big Blue Marlin.
Dario Hernandez joined his father for this trip and snagged a few sandwich-sized Dorado filets.
This trip was also a training run for Mate Antonio, who most of our clients know as our panga boat driver; he will be assuming the mate’s role on the Explorer this year, and will be training with Captain Alex on the Harvester to continue improving his skills.
Richard Fertig and his girlfriend had with big day with Captain Alex and Mate Wilson on the Harvester.
The strikes started early and persisted throughout the day.
They ended up with 10 Sailfish releases and a big Dorado.
Excellent work by the mega panga.
Ken and Brenda Russell’s group continued to blister the billfish on March 19 with Captain William reporting multiple excellent releases.
These Texas anglers are multiple-time FishingNosara Hall of Famers for a reason…these big Pacific Sailfish didn’t stand a chance.
All safely released by Mate Elias as always. Great work by the mighty flagship Wanderer.
Captain David’s run of Sailfish releases continued on March 18 with this awesome score.
Captain Alex has fished hard during the whole month of March, and on the 18th continued his winning ways with a fun day of family fishing.
The great action was consistent all day.
Great work by the crew of the mega panga on these safe releases.
Captain Alex welcomed some of our oldest friends to Nosara on March 17; Ken and Brenda Russell have been enshrined in the FishingNosara Hall of Fame multiple times, and these hard-fishing New Yorkers always bring solid group of anglers.
The Harvester got them off to a good start with several supersize Sailfish releases.
Big fish and big smiles all around on the mega panga.
The Discoverer scored another blue Blue Marlin release on March 15.
Backed up by a nice Sailfish release, the big battleship it posting big scorecards in March.
Captain Fico delivered for his clients on March 14 with a sweet DOUBLE SAILFISH release.
Great work by the barroom brawler!
Texas angler Brian Pratt delivered amazing billfish releases during his March 14th trip on the big battleship Discoverer.
The Sailfish came in so hot that Captain Carlos and Mate Kevin executed this Double Sailfish release.
