Our new friend Ben Smith brought his two sons along for a freewheeling afternoon of fun on the 23rd, punctuated by a big stack of filets.
This Yellowfin Tuna and Cubera Snapper yield two of the most desirable meats in all of fishing.
Great work by Captain Fico to put theses fellas on the fish.
The Explorer pulled double duty on February 22…client Julia Peebles and her group were quite productive in the morning session, scoring these big Yellowfin Tunas.
Then in the afternoon John Difillipo returned for more offshore action and was rewarded with this excellent Sailfish release.
Captain Fico welcomed client Tarn Dickerson for an inshore meat harvest and scored several nice Yellowfin Tuna
Eric Weissman and his friend Zev enjoyed great action with Captain David on a pair of trips in mid-February.

Our good friend Scott Hed had a big day on the Adventurer with a Jack Crevelle, White Tuna, and Yellowfin Tuna on the scorecard.
Captain David is on fire this month and shows no signs of letting up…bad news for the fish!
Tommy Laborde filled the fishbox in a major way on a 5 hour afternoon trip.

Stephane Venant, Tim Capsek, and Camille Chombart we prepared for inshore battle; take a look at Stephane’s traveling arsenal:
