Costa Rica Fishing Report - March 2010
March 16th, 2010 Posted in Fishing Reports | No Comments »Costa Rica’s peak fishing season powers on with reports of the usual suspects - sailfish, roosterfish, mahi-mahi, lots of wahoo, and even a 350 lb marlin. Our marlin came from the Parigi party from Houston, TX. Down for long weekend/bachelor party at the beautiful Villa Buena Onda, the boys went out fishing for a day and reeled in two sailfish and a 350 lb blue marlin. Right now is typically not the best fishing season up in the Guanacaste region of Costa Rica, but that just goes to show that any fish can be had any time of year down here.

A little further south in Manuel Antonio Bob Smouse and his son enjoyed an adventure filled father/son fishing trip. In addition to two days of fishing they also tackled the ATV tour, white water rafting, and the canopy zip-line tour with reckless abandon. On their fishing days on the Blue Pearl II they hauled in three sailfish and a 40 lb roosterfish. The Robinson family went out for five straight days and totaled five sailfish, six dorados, and seven groupers. Needless to say, they didn’t need to spend much on dinner all week.

some fresh mahi-mahi for dinner. The Rozek’s from Texas went out for a full day and landed two dorado and were hit by two others. In three days of fishing the Fyfe’s total was 12 dorados and four bonitos. Finally Jerry Fitzgerald from Chicago hauled in 13 dorados, two bonitos, and and one yellow-fin tuna. So while none of our anglers were able to land a billfish, a few were raised and at the very least they had plenty of tasty dinners on their tropical vacation.
