Our new friends Chris and Carolyn DiCola ripped the Sailfish out of the frame on their first day of fishing today. The bills came in hot and heavy, but the Wanderer has built a reputation as the toughest bill collector in town.

The days action saw three beautiful Sailfish releases…great work on the reels by Team DiCola and by First Mate Alex to ensure the unstressed release of these magical creatures.

The DiCola’s have much more fishing planned this week, so look out for these Pennsylvania-based anglers.

Our great friend Jeff Bickel is back in Nosara for several days of fishing this week and he brought a whole posse of good folks from South Georgia. They left the wives to hang out by the pool while they set the hooks into some great tasting bottom fish.

Highlighted by a huge Jack Crevalle and a nice Red Grouper, these boys really hit the fish hard this week.

Melita Ganoe and her family won the 1st Annual FishingNosara Family Cup at the Jacksonville Kayak Tournament last May.

They arrived to the Wanderer with good eating fish on their minds and they came away with three great species: White Tuna, Red Grouper, and Congrio.

Awesome work by the Ganoe family and the mighty Wanderer.

John Havins and his group from Houston booked Captain William and the Wanderer for an afternoon half day on March 15. He’s staying with our buddy Jeff over at Namaste Oasis so it was natural that he would have a great day on the flagship.

The knocked out a pair of 15lbs. Groupers and added some big Jack Crevalles for good measure. The Grouper bite has turned into a staple and we hope these tasty critters stick around for the rest of the season.

Our old friend George Shipley returned to the blue waters of Garza hoping for a repeat of his excellent performance on the Explorer back in February 2011. With his young son in tow, Mr. Shipley opted for the more spacious Wanderer and once again he was face-to-face with a mighty pacific billfish.

This Pacific Sailfish weighs about 135lbs. and is a wonderful example of the beasts that lurk just a few miles off of our shores. Great work by the crew to ensure the safe release of this majestic beast.

Lots of Groupers today on the Wanderer. A group of yogis took a 2.5 hour morning trip on the flagship and caught 4 Red Groupers each weighing over 15lbs.

On an afternoon 2.5 hour trip client Patrick and his group caught another pair of Red Grouper weighing about 12lbs. each.

Nice fishing on a day where the green water and full moon might scare away less adaptable fisherman…Captain William delivers another memorable performance despite some long odds.

Isabel Fernandez comes to Nosara from a lovely little South Florida fishing village that is just a few blocks from the IGFA Hall of Fame. Floridan anglers are certainly no stranger to productive days on the water, and the afternoon of March 8 was another day at the office for these Sunshine Staters.

First up was the tasty and elusive Congrio, known for it’s excellent white meat. Then these Floridians really piled the fishbox with a swath of tasty Grouper.

Most importantly, everyone has a great time and has big smiles to show for it…another great trip by the Wanderer.
