Spring is in the Air and the Marlin, Sailfish and Tuna Bite is on FIRE!
Billfish and Tuna Stretch the String this Spring AT THE ZANCUDO lODGE, Costa Rica
Spring is in the air along with lots of high flying sailfish and greyhounding Marlin
The fishing this Spring in Southern Costa Rica out of the Zancudo Lodge has been nothing short of spectacular and the exciting bluewater action looks to continue into May.
Marlin and Sailfish continue to attack the spreads offshore while bent rods and aching lower backs have been a testament to the pure tuna chaos that has been keeping the dinner tables flowing with fresh sashimi and tuna steaks. Although the Dorado have been elusive this season, most other offshore species have been out in full force .
The “La Niña effect” has helped deliver a great blue marlin and sailfish bite (last season was an “El Niño” season and the marlin were much less active) which looks to continue into May.
The Usual Suspects Inshore
Raging Roosterfish, Pitbull size Cubera snappers (and several other species of snapper), Almaco Jacks, Bluefin Trevally and African Pompano all continue to keep those who choose to fish inshore content. The amazing diversity of fish species in The Golfo Dulce may just be the the best in the world – you’ll have to come judge for yourself 😉
The Battle of the Bay in May
We’re all getting very excited for the upcoming tournament The Battle of the Bay ( May 10 – 12) which features some of Southern Costa Rica’s and the world’s most famous fishing operations, marinas, and charter captains who will go head to head to be crowned King of the Bay with cash prizes and bragging rights on the line (Triple Crown style fishing tournament with billfish, gamefish and roosterfish categories/crowns) . We still have a couple spaces left so it’s not too late to take part in this first ever annual event if you happen to be in the country or have already planned a trip down to the area.
