A light rod is a forgotten rod.

This is the sad truth of fishing in Los Suenos. Anglers dismiss the slim shapes and composite materials, certain that soft action reels won’t survive a charter trip.

What many sportsmen fail to realize, however, is that light rods (which rank above ultralight options and feature four-to-eight pound lures) offer distinct advantages in Costa Rica.

A light rod boasts superior flexibility. Its carefully crafted design allows it to move with the currents, as well as endure battles against larger inshore breeds. It also features a gentler action, ensuring that bait remains on the hook. Losing expensive Mackerels, Minnows and Shrimps is no longer a concern. Its balanced weight completes the effect, promoting smooth reel-ins.

The light rod is a valuable asset on any inshore fishing trip. Consider using it while in Los Suenos.
