If you want to catch one of these species,
Costa Rica is where you will find them
Almost everyone who thinks about coming to Costa Rica to fish wants to catch a marlin. Or a sailfish. And why not? Costa Rica has been lauded for years as the world’s number one billfishery.
But, as they say, there are definitely other fish in the sea. Costa Rica certainly is the place to catch them: wahoo, dorado, yellowfin tuna offshore; and roosterfish, snapper, grouper inshore all year round off the Pacific coast. And on the Caribbean side, tarpon, snook and feisty freshwater gamefish such as guapote (rainbow bass), machaca and mojarra.
