Jason Frelich’s group started their week with a BIG Dorado, then scored a swarm of Sailfish releases, and on their final trip scored the biggest Yellowfin Tuna of the season so far.

We can’t undestate how unusual it is to find big Yellowfins this time of year. What a blessing!

Earlier in the trip they scored this wonderful Rooster Fish release inshore.

Amazing job my Mate Wilson, Captain Alex, and the unbeatable Harvester.

 

Hey Craig,

I was part of the Frelich group that hauled in the 200 lb+ Yellowfin Tuna, which I must say I’m still enjoying. This was our 2nd vacation with Fishing Nosara and you and your team did not disappoint. I just wanted to relay a few things about our stay that really stood out.

This was our first time staying on the Fishing Nosara property, which is beautifully maintained tropical paradise “Paradise Rentals” is a good name, having the cart at our disposal made getting around a breeze. The pool and breakfast area really beautiful, tropical and needed after a long day of reeling in fish.

From the shuttles to and from the airport, to fishing, to anything we wanted was terrific and super punctual with no worries.

We went horse back riding one day, and the tour was fabulous. We had a lunch with the locals and it was delicious.

The fishing. We fished with Alex and Wilson, on the Fishing Nosara Super Panga all 3 days. I must say that Alex has super fish finding radar like a superhero. He is fishing excellence and partnering with Wilson make them a great 1-2 punch. On our 3 days fishing we caught 10 of 11 Sailfish, 28 lb Dorado, a 48 lb Rooster Fish (my prize catch) and fought the mighty 200 lb + Yellowfin for nearly 4 hrs. it made our several other tuna we caught in the 25lb range look like bait. Kudo’s go’s to our mighty fisherwoman “T” who fought the beast for over 2 hrs making the last 2 hrs an easy catch for Robbie her first mate.

Our over all experience with your accommodations, personnel and fishing was 5 star. Thank you again and hope to return soon.

On March 4, we welcomed Jason Frelich’s group for the first day of a three-day offshore campaign. The highlight of the trip was this monster Dorado

Throughout the day, the Harvester was beset by hard-charging Sailfish. Several multiple hookups with safe releases all around.

Some small Yellowfin Tunas rounded out the haul; what a great start to the week for Team Frelich.

From the “Small World” department:

Dan Johnson from Hatteras was happy to welcome his new friend Antonio Carrillo to fish with him on Wednesday the 24th.

They met at the immigration line in Liberia airport last year while Dan was wearing a Fishing Nosara shirt when Antonio called him next in line
After many questions from Antonio, Dan said he fishes with Fishing Nosara and William Mendoza is my captain of many years

Antonio quickly said he is my father

It’s a small world

Dan has been trying to get Antonio to fish with him on a day off from the immigration police and it worked out great to fish with his father.

So on February 24, the Wanderer welcomed this most distinguished guest:

This may be a vacation for Officer Carillo, but the same can’t be said for the fish…the family scored over ten Red Groupers, plus a nice Yellowfin Tuna.

This trip was a ‘who’s who’ of local talent. Captain Fico of the Explorer came along, also a guest of Mr. Dan Johnson.

The fishing karma was so good that they scored a double Grouper catch even though the snap swivel was left unbuckled.

Near-shore Sailfish release were a welcome diversion.

Also Captain Fico scored an outstanding Yellowfin Tuna.

Here is Father and Son with an excellent Dorado:

“With the best Captain, my father.” Antonio posted.
