When persistence meets the Queen of the Deep. The morning took us to the coordinates of "El 26", a spot where the reef and the current tell different stories every day. We started looking for glory in the deep blue, where a Sailfish defied our lines; it was a fleeting encounter, a quick pique that failed to materialize, leaving us with honey on our lips and our gaze fixed on the horizon. ✨ But in Mathis Fishing Legends, we know that the sea rewards those who return for more. We decided to give the area a second chance, drawing precision circles on the reef. It was then that the long line burst: a beautiful female Mahi-Mahi, of about powerful 30 pounds, jumped to the attack with an impressive chromatic ferocity. The show didn't end there. While we were fighting with the "Golden Queen," two more companions escorted their fight, swimming curiously to the very side of the boat. Seeing those green and yellow flashes under the hull is a reminder of the richness of our waters. Although they decided not to bite this time, they left us with a rapid pulse for the constant trolling back home.

DINNER AND A SHOW: The Family’s Dual Quest When the Pacific serves the perfect evening. For the afternoon, we received a family with a clear mission: they wanted the taste of the ocean on their dishes and the adrenaline of the Pacific in their veins. The sea, always generous with those who respect it, decided to grant them both wishes, although it put us to the test with a strong wind that made the return a slow journey, but full of satisfaction. The afternoon began with the search for the banquet. We managed to secure three Rainbow Runners, those "rainbow runners" that not only give a fun fight, but are the secret ingredient for the most exquisite recipes. We could already smell the aroma of dinner rewarding the effort of the day. ✨ But the ocean had reserved the grand finale for us. Just as the sun began to give way, the figure everyone was waiting for emerged: a legendary fighter, the majestic Sailfish. His candle cutting the water was the climax of an afternoon where the family not only caught food, but forged a memory that the wind, no matter how strong it blew, will never be able to erase. Fishing Report: The Sunset Harvest * Technique: Mixed Trolling & Light Tackle * Location: Nearshore Transition, Costa Rica * The Vibe: Family goals, culinary rewards, and high-seas grit. The Daily Results: * 3 Rainbow Runners: Freshly caught for an exquisite tonight's dinner. * 1 Majestic Sailfish: The adrenaline king, admired and released. * The Journey: A slow, windy, but victorious ride back to port. #FamilyFishing #DinnerAndAShow #RainbowRunner #SailfishCostaRica #MathisLegends #SeaToTable #PuraVida #SportfishingLife #AgainstTheWind

MORNING SESSION: The Pacific’s Variety Show! Headline: When the Ocean decides to play, everybody wins. If yesterday was a lesson in faith, today was a celebration of abundance. The morning received us with a completely different energy: the waters were alive, the reels could not cope and the horizon gave us more opportunities than we could count on. It wasn't just fishing; it was a parade of species. From the brute force of the bottom to the agility of the surface, each of those present had their moment of glory. There was no time for silence, only for the sound of the crackling and the adrenaline of not knowing what was coming at the end of the line. In Mathis Fishing Legends, we say that the sea always compensates those who return, and today he gave us a "full menu" that left us all with tired arms and full souls.
