Theย Discoverer welcomed Thomas Kerl’s group for a 5 hour half day on the 18th, and despite the shortened day the battleship still delivered the goods.

Captain Fico reports that the staple catches of Yellowfin Tuna and Dorado were present, but suprisingly they also nagged a big Wahoo.

These silver bullets are common in our area but we rarely catch them because their sharp teeth destroy our all-monofiliment rigs (a Wahoo-specific rig uses wire instead of mono). Guess is was a lucky day for the big battleship.

Ken and Brenda Russell and Larry Komenda and Misti Nolan switched over to the Discoverer on the 21st, and took their fish-catching ways with them. A couple of Sailfish top the scorecard:

Then this group of hungry Texans needs meat, so this Monster Dorado and elusive Wahoo will fill the refrigerator.

Check out this jealous bird scoping out their haul. Shoo, bird!

Miriam Schroers’ family enjoyed all that our inshore fishery has to offer with an amazing performance on April 18.

 

After an excellent early-morning Cubera Snapper score, these anglers corned a medium-sized Wahoo who drifted a little too close to shore.

It’s unusual to catch a Wahoo this close to shore, but with Captain Alex it’s quite normal to score a nice Rooster Fish release.

Great work by Captain Alex and the Harvester!

The Harvester stayed inshore with Clayton Laskowski and his posse for a great day of action.

According to Captain Alex’ trusty Boca Grip this Cubera Snapper clocked in at 38lbs. Then they nabbed a nice Queen Snapper:

A big Dorado wandered inshore and fell into the Harvester‘s web.

Lastly they scored this nice-sized Wahoo. Pretty sweet to go home with three different kinds of filets!

They also busted this Barracuda who was trying to steal from the pantry:

Time for refreshments after a long day of action!

Clayton Laskowski and his buddy put on a show over three days fishing on theย Wanderer, filling the scorecard with a wide variety of catches.

The first day featured a raft full of Yellowfin Tunas backed up by a nice Dorado.

Later in the trip the Wanderer also found this excellent Sailfish, safe released as always.

 

On the second day Team Laskowski found more Dorados, and this time they had some serious size to them.

They even scored a couple of small Wahoos, an unusual score for this time of year.

The third and final day on the Wanderer featured multiple Sailfish releases and more Mahi Mahi.

After a run like this it’s no surprise that the boys were ready to pitch in on the filet knife. Great work by Captain William and these fun-loving anglers.
