Costa Rica is the ideal base for world-class sportfishing. This country is world-renowned as an excellent sportfishing destination because of its privileged location.
Abundant numbers of tarpon and snook are two of Costa Rica's famous game fish species fly anglers have come to revere. There are others as well, such as the rainbow bass (guapote, as known to the locals). Rainbow bass are a hard-hitting fish with many of the same habits of the North American black bass. Rainbow bass can grow to more than ten pounds and eagerly attack most crank baits, jigs and topwater lures used to catch black bass.
The most productive areas in the world to fish rainbow bass are the virgin lagoons, creeks and rivers in northeast Costa Rica and southeastern Nicaragua. It is predicted the next world record will come from there. While casting the shoreline, the angler will be spied upon by a variety of monkeys, sloths, toucans and parrots. The tranquility could be suddenly interrupted when a 30 lb snook or 80 lb tarpon that roam the same waters as rainbow bass crash a lure or fly.
Whether fishing near the mouths of the Moin and Matina rivers for Tarpon or offshore in the Caribbean for Yellowfin Tuna, salt water fishing is great all year 'round. From the mouth of the Moin river, near Limon, the Continental Shelf is only 3 - 4 miles and just a short boat ride to fantastic fishing!.
Once we pick you up right at the pier, you will be transport by bus (10 minutes ride) to the local quay where is our boat. Fishing equipment and drinks are provided.
