 Marlin
Marlin have been
taken every month of the year. Large numbers start to show up
in July and roam the waters through December. July and August
record the largest Black Marlin, and Blues are taken often during
the prime Sailfish months. RESERVE
 Sailfish
Sails are most abundant December through March with good catches
starting in October. Like Marlin, Sailfish are taken year round
with 5 to 6 fish a day in the off-season common.
RESERVE
 
 Tuna
The bigger Tuna are taken during the most productive runs of
the Sailfish and Marlin, but smaller Tuna (footballs) are to
be had all year long.
RESERVE
 
 Dorado
Also known as Dolphinfish or Mahi Mahi, Dorado are more abundant
from May through October when the rivers send floating logs
and other debris to the ocean. These fish are attracted to drifting
debris. Dorado can be caught throughout the year.
RESERVE
 
 Wahoo
The area is not known to hold great numbers of these fast and
explosive fish, but you never know. They are found year round
in limited numbers.
RESERVE
 
 Roosterfish
Without a doubt, the Roosterfish is the most exciting inshore
and surf fish available and are the main attraction to inshore
fishermen. The 30 mile long Golfo Dulce and the volcanic shoreline
structure hold fish all year long. 20 to 40 pounders are common.
RESERVE
Cubera
Snapper
This is the most popular of all the local Snappers, due to its
size and sheer strength. Fish over 50lbs have been caught in
the area, year round.RESERVE
 Snook
The all tackle world record Snook came from these waters in
1991. The amount of freshwater flowing in to the ocean provides
awesome surf and estuary fishing for these 4 species of feisty
fish. Although available year round, May through October is
usually better, during the rainy season.RESERVE
