Marlin Fishing: Marlin are seen throughout the year, predominantly between the months of January through mid September. Blue, Black and Striped are commonly seen mixed in with the migrating sailfish. Sailfishing: Sailfish are the most predominant species here on the Pacific Coast waters of Costa Rica. You should expect to see many free jumpers and excessive amounts of sailfish during the months of December through May. We release approximately 5 to 15 sailfish daily. Tuna Fishing: Tunas are caught year round. Usually when you sight a pod of spinning dolphins, a school of tuna is close by. Dorado Fishing: Dorado, also known as Mahi Mahi or Dolphin fish. Dorado are most abundant between the months of December through October when the rivers send floating logs and other debris to the ocean. These fish are attracted to drifting debris and are commonly found swimming around underneath. Dorado is a species here in Costa Rica that can also be caught year round. Wahoo Fishing: The area is not known to hold great numbers of these fast fish, but you never know. They are found year round in random numbers, however one of these as a catch can provide a GREAT DINNER! Roosterfish: Undoubtedly, the Roosterfish is the most exciting inshore fish available and are the main attraction to inshore fishermen. These fish lurk around rocky bottoms and are one heck of a fight! They are not to good for eating due to of all their muscle but they do tend to bring a lot of spunk to the line. Roosters can be caught year round averaging from 20 to 40 pounds. Cubera Snapper Fishing: This is the most popular of all the local Snappers, due to its size and sheer strength. Fish over 50lbs have been caught in the area, year round. They are very similar to the Red Snapper fish.
