FishingNosara Hall of Famer Dan Johnson returned to the Wanderer on the 28th for another round of blue-water billfish battlin’. They nabbed this beautiful Sailfish release:
Great fish handling by Mate Johnson to see this lovely creature swim away safely.
Captain William finished the month strong with a very productive trip, highlighted by this nice Blue Marlin.
Later in the day they set up on a nice pod of Dorados, boating several of these nice monsters.
The fish kept biting even after the clients’ arms wore out, so Mate Wilson reeled up the last one of the day.
Team Bonifay followed up their offshore success with an very memorable inshore score on the 17th.
Check out this monster Rooster fish, safely released by Mate Johnny after the photo.
South Carolina angler Cissy Bonifay brought home the bacon with Captain William reporting this excellent Dorado on February 16.
We all like sushi, but at least let us filet the fish first!

They added a big Dorado for the icebox, and all of this happened on just a 5 hour half day!
The Wanderer delivered a great inshore experience for the Christine Franz group on January 5. First order of business was to acquire live-bait, and this 5lbs. Bonita fit the bill perfectly.

Safe released as always, this tactic proves again why Captain William is a true master!
