Fishing Costa Rica - join us on a sport fishing adventure of a lifetime.
The most important feature of a Los Suenos fish is not its size, teeth or color. Its fins instead reign supreme.
These spiny-boned limbs propel every Marlin, Sailfish and Permit through the water. They allow them to fight against the line, and they directly impact speed and stamina. They make sport fishing both exciting and frustrating.
Anglers should, therefore, learn their names.
Pectoral Fins: fins found on the side of each fish, allowing them to move quickly through the water at even great depths.
Pelvic Fins: fins located beneath the pectorals that control a fish’s range of motion, specifically upward and downward movements.
Dorsal Fins: fins that rest along the spine, effecting a fish’s ability to turn.
Anal Fins: fins found just beneath the anus, controlling stability and balance.
Caudal Fins: fins that serve as the tail, providing the main source of propulsion.

A Los Suenos fish uses all of these fins to navigate the Pacific. Anglers should take note of each limb to better understand how these breeds move and how powerful they’ll prove to be.
Contact Costa Rica Fishing Adventures to learn more about the types of fins found in Los Suenos. Ask us also about our charter tours and accommodations.
Fishing in Los Suenos is easy.
Understanding the anatomy of every Marlin, Snapper and Yellow Fin, however, can prove more difficult.
Inexperienced anglers can rarely name the individual parts of a fish, and this can impact the quality of their charter trips. Many tackle options are calibrated to specific fins, gills and snout types; and most cleaning procedures require knowledge of organ placement.It’s important, therefore, to recognize the basic anatomy of every Los Suenos fish.
Costa Rica Fishing Adventures will make that a simple task..
Visit often as we describe the external and internal morphology of fish. We’ll provide the most common terms, allowing even novices to better understand their catches. This will improve every charter trip and help to increase each angler’s personal knowledge. Learn and reap the benefits!
