Drake BayOsa Peninsula/ Drake Bay, Costa Rica November & December 2017 Fishing Report

Greetings from the beautful and unspoiled waters of Drake Bay. This is a transitonal time of year as the numerous humpback whales we have enjoyed watching continue on their journey and the seasonal rains begin to subside. As the weather clears and the seas calm, the bite steadily improves every week. Drake Bay is blessed with a huge reef system around Caño Island just 12 miles from the beach. This reef offers a consistent year round bottom-fishing bite for Grouper, Snapper, Amberjack, Pompano and other delicious table fare. These fish are caught on live bait, cut bait and speed jigs. The hard fightng, exotc Roosterfsh are also here year round and are caught on poppers, lures, fies and live bait. Offshore, the Tuna and Wahoo bite remains strong and lucky anglers should expect the occasional blue or black Marlin to come bustng through their spread. We are expecting big numbers in 2018 for both sailfish and marlin.

Until next time…tight lines,
