These are the king of all game fish,
and there is no thrill in fishing to compare with hooking a tarpon.
Set the hook hard when they strike, then watch the water erupt as
they head for the stratosphere, leaping and twisting clear of the
water eight or twelve times! Average size of the tarpon taken at the
Rio Colorado Lodge is around 80 pounds and fish to 207 pounds have
been brought to gaff. You can expect to jump eight or ten fish a
day, and when things are really hot, anglers often jump 25 or more
tarpon in a day's fishing. Only artificial lures are used, and all
of the fish are lip-gaffed so they can be released after the photos
have been taken.
Most of the action will be in the calm waters of the jungle
rivers and lagoons, with monkeys and brilliantly hued birds to be
seen in the vines and branches of the verdant, orchid draped trees
that line the shore. When the fish are on the outside, your guide
will often put you in the middle of a school of literally hundreds
of leaping fish spreading over an acre or more of calm sea.Rio Colorado Lodge in Friendly Costa Rica

SNOOK
You will troll along the banks of the quiet jungle river or
drift silently into a likely lagoon, plugging toward the brush. When
the snook hits, you'll know you have a real fish on the line as
these sluggers know all the tricks, one moment bulldozing toward
cover, then often reversing their field to break water as they try
to shake barbs. Except during the calba runs, the average snook of
close to 20 pounds. Thirty-pounders are not uncommon, and fish in
the 50 pound bracket have been taken locally. |
Hooking a snook in the surf as you stand waist deep in the warm
waters of the Caribbean is an experience you won't soon forget,
especially since the fish in the surf tend to run much larger. They
will circle and jump frantically, using the surge of the tide and
waves to their advantage and testing the angler's skill to the
limit.
