sport fishing

Lake Arenal is having its typical high windy condition of December to February and regardless, the fishing is still good for medium sized fish, along the shore and when deep trolling with Hi-D sinking lines with White/Silver or Yellow streamer flies. Pencil poppers are dynamite in the mornings fished along the shore and banks, rear structure and floating grass beds. Strong 30 lb. shock tippets are advised. The Arenal Volcano is now calm but mainly under cloud, with some occasional occurrence of acid rain and ash fall on the southern end of the lake.Pacific fly fishing has been very good along the Central and Northern coast, with lots of success on Sailfish, Marlin, Giant Tuna and Dorado. Coastal Pacific fly fishing is also giving results for Black Snook, Roosterfish and Snappers. Coastal fishing is consistently good off Golfito and Osa Peninsula in the South and off the rocky points or river mouths in the North. Special inshore fishing trips to the northern Pacific near the Santa Rosa National Park are ideal for fishing Roosterfish and Pacific Snook. This is mainly a tidal fishery and so will depend upon the ideal tides and water conditions. Fishing the river mouths flowing into the Pacific is also very productive at present. These are mainly custom trips and are a lot of fun and a great eco-adventure. The fishing off Garza and Nosara has been very good, especially the Inshore Fishing. Read the rest of this entry »
