Costa Rica Fishing - East Coast and West Coast

EAST COAST - Costa Rica is blessed with extensive coastlines on two oceans.   The east (Carribbean) coast, in addition to its superb tarpon fishing, also offers world-class (and multiple world record) snook, sailfish, kings, tuna, snapper, wahoo, jacks and more.  Head inshore, into the complex river systems, and

you''ll encouter aggressive guapote, machaca and mojarra.  There is something for everyone here, making this a trip loaded with experiences that every fisherman and every member of the family will enjoy.  Rio Parismina Lodge offers great fishing, great food, great accommodations and a beautiful, pristine location all rolled into one.  It exceeds the highest expectations.  Taking service and flexibility to an even higher standard, several packages are available, constructed to take advantage of regularly chartered flights between San Jose and Parismina - every Tuesday and Saturday morning.  This permits structuring trips in three, four or seven day intervals, giving anglers the opportunity to select the itinerary and pricing that best allows them to fit a world-class tarpon fishing trip into their own schedule and budget. 
 

       WEST COAST - The west (Pacific) coast of Costa Rica has three distinct fisheries: 1. Mangroves and rivers, 2. Inshore waters, including bays, gulfs and the nearby sandy beaches and rocky shores, 3. Offshore blue water. 
Pacific sailfish - the release
 Acute Angling organizes trips to Crocodile Bay Lodge to access all three of these fisheries.  Prime mangrove and river species are snook, barracuda,  Pacific jack crevalle and mangrove snappers.  Inshore species include; the the highly sought after roosterfish, blue fin trevally, barracuda, snapper, jack crevalle and Sierra mackerel.  Offshore species include enormous sailfish, marlin (blacks, blues and striped), wahoo, yellow-fin tuna and mahi-mahi.
     At Crocodile Bay, the blue water billfish grounds are only a few miles offshore. Offshore is really close to shore. This means a shorter boat ride and, therefore, more fishing time.  It also gives anglers the ability to split days from offshore to inshore.   What makes this an even more satisfying fishing experience is the quality of boats, equipmant and staff.  Crocodile Bay's captains and mates are well versed in conventional and fly fishing blue water with regard to boat preparation, tactics, the number and type of teasers, teaser colors to use, and how to position them.   Costa Rica's Pacific coast offers an enormous range of fishing opportunities and Crocodile Bay makes them available to every angler, from novice to expert, in a comfortable and productive fashion.
