Costa Rica Surf Fishing?

FNG here.

I'm looking at a January or March CR vacation. Is there surf fishing for rooster fish in CR at either of those times of year? I will be staying at either Hilton Papagayo or Doubletree Puntarenas...hotel points bum. Is one location better than the other for surf fishing (or nearer to good surf fishing).

Any recommended charters near either location?

Thanks

Hey...You can fish from the beach about everywhere. Roosters are not all that common off the beach. More likely to catch a Snook or Snapper. But Roosters are cruising the outside sometimes. Make sure you do your homework. That Double Tree in Puntarenas is a JOKE and is about an hour from anything.There is a river right out front. Jan-Mar is PRIME time for Offshore. Now is really the time for the Roosters. Let me know if I can help or you'd like to go out after the Roosters or Sails.

I have special prices for SFC members and have fished with a lot of folks from this site.

Captn Dave,

Thanks for the heads up on the Double Tree. I did read a few bad reviews about it on Tripadvisor.com. If I put a trip together, I will contact you.

I also could stay at the Marriott Guanacaste (Tamarindo) or Marriott Los Suenos (Playa Herradura). Info on any of these locations would be appreciated.

To anyone in the know...Take my 12' surf rod to CR or leave it at home?

Thanks
