Costa Rica Fishing Report Archive | FishingNosara
Client Jay Evart joined the flagship for a morning half day and scored the fish of a lifetime:
This feisty Striped Marlin is an angler’s dream, and the Wanderer proves that you can catch the ocean’s baddest fish in just a short time on the water.
Excellent work all around by the mighty Wanderer.
The Wanderer keep up her strong performance into late August as Captain William delivered three great Sailfish releases for his clients.
First Mate Alex put on a demo for our new boathand Mate Johnson on the finer points of Sailfish releasing.
Looks like it’s rubbing off!
Wonderful work by the flagship!
After their excellent action offshore, Buz Underill returned to the Wanderer and opted to stay in close to ply the reefs just outside Garza Bay.
They deployed our exclusive Cubera Snapper Tactic and scored big:
This monster weighs at least 50lbs. and its filets will pair nicely with the 80lbs. of Dorado they scored earlier in the week.
Great work by Mr. Underill and the crew of the flagship Wanderer.
Chad Grimes and his posse of North Carolina anglers put a hurtin’ on the inshore reef dweller on August 18 with the flagship Wanderer.
This monster Rooster fish release at the start of the day was just the tip of the iceberg.
They followed up with a MAMMOTH Cubera Snapper (unusual for so early in the day) and then added a late-day Rooster fish release.
Great work from our friends from CCA North Carolina!
Buz Underill and his family started their week of fishing with a blast of blue water action.
First up was this 30lbs. Dorado gobbled up by their youngest angler.
Then is was Pop’s turn to duel a Dorado, and he scored the fish of the day with this 60+lbs. Mahi:
It’s always a treat to see a youngster holding a fish that most likely outweighs him.
The grown-ups took over in the afternoon with a nice Sailfish release.
Excellent hunting by Captain William backed up by superb fish-handling by the incomparable First Mate Alex.
Craig and Paula took a trip on the Wanderer with grandbaby Kylee in tow, and the Sailfish showed up in numbers.
Kylee has been watching FishingNosara DVDs since she was born, and she proved her prowess on the boat…this kid keeps her eyes glued to the baits like an old salty dog.
Craig scored some Sailfish releases and Kylee finally got to see the live 3D version the the DVDs she enjoys so much.
The Wanderer welcomed client JP Jones and his friends for and offshore Sailfish battle on August 10.
Overcast skies kept the water’s surface temperature cool, luring the big billfish to the surface where they hit the baits early and often.
Great performance from First Mate Alex to coordinate the fights and Captain William to stay on the bite.
This group had such fun that they extended their trip on the spot, yielding several more Sailfish releases.
Leland Blessing brought a full boat of fun-loving family fishermen to the Wanderer on August 7 and Captain William did not disappoint…he stalked a school of porpoises to the feeding grounds and we all know what that means:
Yella Fella Time!
Everyone got a chance to catch fish and the results were stellar.
Believe me that nobody is going hungry in this group.
Big Sailfish and big smiles on the Wanderer!
These boys put a whipping on a swarm of Sailfish on a full day trip August 5.
These monsters boast remarkable beauty, especially on a day where the water is super-clear.
Excellent hunting by Captain William and great safe releases by First Mate Alex.
Briant Keen and his family had fabulous five Sailfish release day with Captain William on July 28.
They started quick with a release just one hour into the trip, then the action stayed strong throughout the day.
The highlight was a Double Sailfish release executed perfectly by First Mate Alex.
The seas were tall due to a big swell the night before, but this hard-fishing family fought through the queasiness and kept notching the scorecard.
