fishing tamarindo
Costa rica offers an infinite variety of offshore fishing opportunities. Everything from sea bass on the reefs to blue marlin in the Gulf Stream is biting.
Many of the bluewater fish that occur 50 miles offshore in the early spring may move to within 15 miles of the coast.
Costa rica also offers the angler the best weather of the year, sometimes with four or five consecutive days of flat, calm conditions.
Costa rica fishing has its drawbacks, though. The steamy hot days of July and August send many of the fish that normally inhabit the surface to deeper waters.
Costa rica heat also polarizes much of the feeding activity into the early morning and late afternoon and evening. During the hot part of the day, the wise fisherman sets his baits deep to catch the same fish that were on the surface in the morning.
Downriggers and planers are key elements to a successful offshore trip during the summer
Blue and white marlin become more scattered during this time since temperature no longer restricts them to the Gulf.
Occasionally, a marlin will surprise a king mackerel fisherman in 80 feet of water, but the most productive area will be in 300 to 1200 feet of water.
Sailfish reach peak abundance during the summer. July and August offer anglers their best opportunity to catch sails off South Carolina.
During this time, numerous small sails will be hooked within 10 miles of the beach, but these fish are usually well below the 57-inch fork length minimum set by law.
Weed lines, current rips and natural reefs in 120 to 300 feet of water are the best areas for these prized game fish.
Averaging 35 to 45 pounds, sails pre-fer smaller baits than their larger cousins the marlins. Trolling with small to medium size ballyhoo and mullet with a small artificial lure or colored skirt placed ahead of the bait is effective for sailfish.
Sails will readily attack small to medium-sized lures and have even been caught on spoons and plugs intended for king mackerel.
