Bob Rhinehart came to the Explorer looking to fill the fish box, and he got as that he asked for.

The big filets came in the form of big Yellowfin Tuna backed up a fat Dorado…excellent work!

Bob returned the next day for another foray into the blue water. The bite was slow early in trip, but heated up in a big way in the afternoon.

This Dorado hit at 4:45pm and even though it was late, Captain Fico knew they were on the right spot.

Less than an hour later this Striped Marlin took the bait at 5:25pm

From striking out to hitting a home run all within one hour…persistence pays!

Philip Rivera and his family joined Captain Alex for the beginning of a double-day of fishing on March 15. The morning half of the day was highlighted by this excellent Sailfish release:

Then in the afternoon Jasper Buchbauer came aboard for a Yellowfin Tuna rally.

Persistence pays, and this late-day monster proves that the best fish of the day is often the last fish of the day:

Captain David welcomed Carl Lindberg or Vermont for a very productive day of inshore filet gathering on March 9.

The highlight was the elusive Congrio. One of the few sea creatures that can swim backwards, this unusual fish/eel hybrid yields a tasty white fish that is similar to lobster tail…yummy!

He also nabbed a sandwich-sized Dorado and a nice White Tuna.

He finished off the day with a pair of big Yellowfin Tunas.
