Hiding within Costa Rica’s deep waters is the Yellow Fin Tuna. This is a popular breed to chase -- with its long frame and high dorsal fins attracting the attention of every angler, golden gill rakers marking it as unique. Each season countless travelers venture into the Pacific to catch it.


They often do... but at a cost to their safety.


Without support from a charter service, like the Miss Behavin, anglers may find themselves overwhelmed.

Yellow Fin Tuna--weighing over four hundred pounds and extending over ninety-four inches--is a large breed. It boasts a muscular frame, with a strong tail and stronger jaw. This marks it as a deep-sea predator.

It also marks it as a fish that is difficult to catch -- especially when anglers make the attempt on their own. 

Casual travelers may try to sail after the Yellow Fin Tuna, relying on basic tackle, assuming that simple lines will suffice. This is a mistake. These fish are prone to breaking lines, lures and reels. They are also powerful enough to pull inexperienced anglers from a boat, increasing the risk for injury.

It’s imperative, therefore, that individuals choose seasoned charter crews, like the one found on the Miss Behavin. These crews provide the necessary rigging, as well as stabilizing techniques, to ensure total safety. They can anticipate the Yellow Fin Tuna’s movements and then adapt to every need.

And this is necessary for a safe and successful trip.

Along the coast of Los Suenos there are many fish. None, however, manage to tempt--as well as frustrate--anglers more than Marlins. These creatures are premier ocean predators, with quick movements and spear-sharp jaws, their scales thorny-strong. They move through the deep currents, consuming everything in their path. 


They are remarkably difficult to catch... especially when anglers choose the wrong types of tackle.

Chasing Marlin requires more than determination. Instead anglers--after securing a charter service, like the Barnacle II--must have the right tackle. This is a large breed. Basic equipment will not suffice. Instead these options are needed:

Marlin Designated Rod

Choose a rod that is meant for Marlin fishing. These pieces will include graphite cores, balanced reels and a sturdy construction.

Long Range Reel

The Marlin is not a docile breed. It will instead fight. A long range reel is needed to adapt to this, providing as much line as necessary to allow the fish to eventually tire itself out.

Sturdy Line

Marlins fight when captured, jumping and twisting for hours. Heavy line--whether wire-based or nylon--is, therefore, essential. 

Choose the best available tackle while hunting Marlins with a charter crew, like the Barnacle II. This is the only way to ensure a worthwhile experience.

In-shore fishing, as the name implies, is centered close to the coast. It relies on light tackle or spinning lure techniques to search the shelf waters. Charter services, like the Good Day Too, provide anglers with access to a variety of fish without having to venture into deep currents.

The most common Costa Rica breeds found in-shore are:

Roosterfish

The Roosterfish is aptly named. Along its dorsal fin seven spikes rise, resembling the comb of a rooster. This lean fish--measuring over five feet in length and weighing an average of twenty pounds--is noted for its speed.

Grouper

The Grouper is a powerful creature, with a wide frame and gaping mouth. Its unique gills allow it to effortlessly capture prey, sucking them in from a distance. It is not a quick fish, but it does prove difficult to catch due to its strength. Size and weight will vary.

Spanish Mackerel 

The Spanish Mackerel is a ray-boned fish, gently a gently curving spine and a spiny dorsal fin. It boasts a compact size, measuring an average length of fourteen inches and weighing up to eleven pounds. Its colors are striking, making it a favorite to catch.

In-shore fishing in Costa Rica is as easy as it is exciting. Charter a ship, like the Good Day Too, and discover what’s waiting just beneath the surface.
