virgili

About twenty expeditions made there and always an amazing feeling.
Some pics among the captures made for the last 4 days off the Nicoya Coast.
Excellent sea/ weather conditions.
One of the top Blue Planet spearfishing destination...
Pura Vida!

Nice work! do you troll to bring the fish to the boat or how do you find them?

Great pics. What charter did you use?

virgili

I have been using there this technic:
boating for hours in the blue water at 20/ 30 miles off the coast and looking for upwelling currents (cold).
Then do following slowly this current until we spot something drifting (a log, a dead turtle..)
I check the baitfish close to the thing. If small bonito/ skipjack swimming at about 40feet depth: this is the best hunting conditions
then I play the flasher (or rarely chum )waiting for my turn.
Dorado use to visit the spot in small group or alone (female) and wahoo...
Marlin visit is possible.

rented this boat.
flasher is an home prototype
