Speaking of Costa Rica, I booked a trip for this coming March. Going to Quepos. Booked a sailfish boat for fly fishing through the Parador Hotel, a very top notch Hotel, not a fishing lodge. I recommend this hotel highly to those who want to combine fishing with other pass-times including white water rafting, jungle tours, kayaks, fine dining and just sipping margaritas in the many infinity pools overlooking the Pacific. Go to Parador.com...... check it out. Not your typical family resort.

Anyway, I bought a 4 piece St Croix surf rod with Shimano Saragosa, loaded with 40 braid to bring with me to fish the beaches and shoreline when not on the offshore charter. Bringing my bag, filled with plugs, tins, bucks and shads. Hopefully will hook into a cubera or rooster, which are known to live along the rocky coasts and surf.

Have hooked sails on fly......which to me is novelty fishing, but enjoyable especially with my wife on board. But really looking forward to exploring some shorelines with my new outfit.

Any advice is welcome as I never fished the beaches down there, off the coast of Quepos.
