Costa Rica, January 15th & 16th

Pompano Joe · 01-18-2012, 11:36 PM

Absolutely perfect weather at Los Suenos (Herradura) this week. Small group from Gulf Breeze on a private boat. Slow bite both days, but enough Sailfish to go around. Ended up with 6 Sailfish and 1 Blue Marlin over the 2 days we fished.

Deck hand cut my 13-year-old's first Sailfish off when I hooked up the blue. But he got #2 with the pic to prove it.

Cut the Marlin off after the third trip to the boat. Captain est. 225-250 on 20# test. Great fight and my first Blue.

Bite should heat up over the next couple of weeks!

Joe, this is just awesome! Congrats to Ian on his 1st sail and to you on your 1st blue!
I'm jealous!
