Nosara, now that's a name you don't here a lot. I fished out of there about 5 years ago and had a ball. In terms of surf fishing, I was down in Quepos a month ago and did well with the roosters in the surf. I was on a long stretch of beach and found some huge rocks that started out of the water and worked their way offshore and casted around them. I caught two roosters at that spot. One on a Red/White ranger that I worked very fast, and the other on a 1 3/4 oz lead head with a white slug-go.

Here is the link with the report:
Sailfish, Roosters, Grouper, and More...

What have you been doing to catch fish from the surf?
