The Wanderer had a splendid day of offshore action on June 11.
After an early Sailfish release, the flagship stayed offshore and scored a few football-sized Yellowfin Tunas.
The next day the Wanderer returned offshore and nabbed several more great Sailfish releases.
After all the offshore success, Captain William and Mate Johnson switched it up and moved inshore to best this awesome Cubera Snapper:
The Tallahassee Offshore Mafia hit town on the 10th with capo Don Chuck Harris leading the charge on the Harvester.
This large group booked up all of our boats this week and cut a wide swath through the blue water species.
After a few nice Sailfish releases, they rounded out the day with some tasty plate-sized Yellowfin Tunas.
Great way to start the week for these hard-fishin’ Floridians.
Art Jones enjoyed a great day on the Harvester, starting with some sweet Sailfish releases.
Later on they boated some nice sized Yellowfin Tunas for the dinner table.
Great work by Captain Alex!
Dave Caywood did well offshore with the Harvester on the 19th, starting with an energetic Sailfish release:
Then they nabbed dinner in the form of these fat Yellowfin Tunas.
Amy and Rick Thomas started their fishing adventurer on the super panga Explorer. Captain Fico followed the spinning dolphins to a nice pot of Yellowfin Tuna.
They casted topwater plugs at these tasty morsels and pulled a few nice ones on board.
Great start to the week for the Thomas family!
The Explorer continues to grow her reputation as a fly-weight fish-fighting weapon as many large fish have met their match.
This Double Sailfish release is certainly a highlight, and the combo of Captain Fico and Mate Elias have made big Sailfish releases a common occurrence on the super panga.
There has also been a nice run of Yellowfin Tuna which the Explorer has taken advantage of:
Most recently our great friends Ken and Brenda Russell along with Larry Komenda and Misti Nolan nabbed this sweet Rooster fish release:
Great work by the legendary Explorer!
Family fun on the Wanderer as a group of youngsters took to the flagship and found a nice squad of Yellowfin Tunas.
Great to see the fish cooperate for these young anglers.
Tasty sushi and filets coming up!
Returning angler Laura Lanoue and her posse got their week of fishing off to a rollicking good start with some sweet Yellowfin Tuna scored on the Wanderer.
We always encourage our clients to fish on the first day because it’s always nice to get some filets in the fridge at the beginning of the week.
We expect Laura and Mike’s group to continue their excellent fishing this week.
Captain Fico and Mate Elias have delivered white-hot action to their clients this month on the Explorer.
These guys have the 28-foot super panga dialed-in and their results are proof that you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish.
The Sailfish bite is on strong with the barroom brawler knocking out several Sails, including some Double Sailfish releases (above).
Rooster fish releases have also been a constant this month for the Explorer:
It’s not all trophy releases, either. The fish box on the super panga has stayed bloody with reports of big Dorado and feisty Yellowfin Tunas:
FishingNosara Hall of Famers Ron LaGro and Catherine Chase rejoined the Wanderer for their annual blue water fishing adventure, and scored lots of big Sailfish on just a 5 hour half-day.
Catherine has a knack for battling big billfish, and she put on a catching clinic like usual.
Ron also brought home the bacon in the form of this football-sized Yellowfin Tuna.
