The Harvester had a great day on the 14th with both the morning and afternoon half day sessions reporting great action.
Dorado and Yellowfin Tuna were put on ice, and check out this teeny-tiny Wahoo:

From Virgil Russell: Great day at FishingNosara!
Had three marlin on, managed to bring one in and released him. A 200 lb Blue, and Rachel Elisabeth’s first marlin.
Daphne had one on for about five minutes before getting broken off.
Got a couple of TINY Yellowfin’s to bring something home for dinner.

Kevin Fishbeck’s family scored a nice array of catches big and small on May 21st with the Wanderer.
Several big Rainbow Runners filled the fishbox, and a few fun small catches rounded out the day.

Patience pays off, as proved by the flagship Wanderer on June 23. Steven Cobb’s group headed offshore, and the first fish up was this teeny-tiny Dorado.
Not big enought to keep, this little fella was returned to the water. The next two Dorados came soon after and were just barely big enough to keep.
Team Cobb stayed patient, and were rewarded with this excellent Dorado:
They also nabbed a super Sailfish release to round out the trip. Excellent perservance by Master Captain William and the flagship Wanderer.

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.

Up in the mountains, Javier and his family are known to catch fish from the river. Check out this tiny Snook catch from July 25.
Obviously we released this minnow, but hope to seem him downstream in a few years when he is worthy of a battle with Rey Robalo.

Jon Poploskie joined Captain Fico for a 5 hour half day on August 7 and beefed up the fridgerator with this nice Yellowfin Tunas.
Also his youngster scored a little sandwich-sized Dorado for good measure.
Excellent work by the Explorer!

On July 10 Captain William headed offshore to Sailfish City and nabbed four lovely releases.
It’s great to see that the Sailfish have returned in numbers and that they are hungry!
They finished off the day with this juvenile Sailfish release. We’ll see this little fella again in about a year when he is all grown up.

John Bottko enlisted the Discoverer for a full day on Christmas and brought the kids along for the trip to the meat market.
The battleship delivered four big tasty Dorados, then followed up with these small Wahoos, also called Wee-hoos:
Great work by Captain Carlos!

Captain Fico never lets clients leave empty-handed…the action was slow on May 14 but the Adventurer still scored some small Dorados.
They may not look like much in these pictures, but trust me they look fine once grilled and drizzled with butter, garlic, and lime!
