Fishing in Nicaragua

Nicaragua stands as a hidden gem in the world of sportfishing, cradled by the Caribbean Sea to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west. This unique geography creates unparalleled access to diverse game fish across untouched, secluded waters. Anglers here target legendary species like Tarpon in river systems, powerful Roosterfish along the coast, and pelagic giants such as Sailfish and Yellowfin Tuna offshore.

The country’s relatively undiscovered waters mean less pressure on fisheries, offering exceptional opportunities for both novice and experienced anglers. Techniques vary widely: fly fish the lush river flats for Bonefish and Snook, troll offshore for Marlin, or bottom-fish near reefs for Snapper. Conservation is prioritized, with stringent catch-and-release practices for Tarpon and careful management of vulnerable species.

From the volcanic Pacific coast to the remote Rio San Juan rainforests, Nicaragua delivers adventures beyond fishing—exploring pristine beaches, jungles, and coral reefs. Whether casting in freshwater lakes or battling deep-sea trophies, the country’s unspoiled ecosystems promise unforgettable angling. Local captains, equipped with expert knowledge and top-tier gear, ensure rich experiences tailored to every passion and skill level.

Nicaragua Fishing Seasons

January

January is one of the slowest months for sport fishing in Nicaragua. Few species are at their peak, but you can find relatively good action anywhere close to shore. 

February

Cast a line on the inshore flats or near the mouth of the San Juan River for Snook, Tarpon, Jacks, and more. The peak season for deep sea fishing is still months away. 

March

The waters offshore are starting to look a little more lively! Your chances of landing a Sailfish, Tuna, or Marlin are good, while you can expect to catch Roosterfish inshore.

April

The height of Nicaragua’s deep sea fishing is finally kicking in, with loads of big game trophies to be found offshore. Wahoo, Marlin, Mahi Mahi, and Tuna are all biting!

May

Even more big game fish are showing up off the coast of Nicaragua, making May a great time to try your luck offshore, in the jungle streams, or anywhere in between!

June

Sailfish and Yellowfin Tuna are at their peak, joining scores of other big game fish who have come to feast on baitfish on the west coast. Inshore, you can catch anything from Tarpon to Roosterfish.

July

You’re likely to see a slight drop in Snook fishing this month, but rest assured this fish will be at its peak again soon. Offshore, literally every big game fish in Nicaragua is available.

August

The best of Nicaragua’s sportfishing continues this month. Come catch anything from Snook, Roosterfish, and Tarpon to Marlin and Sailfish.

September

Snook are at their peak again, adding to the inshore action. Head to the San Juan River for a chance to land a Tarpon well over 100 lbs.

October

As the season changes, anglers will spend less time offshore and more time testing the waters close to home. For now, you can still expect good fishing for Sailfish, Marlin, and more.

November

The action offshore will be significantly slower in November, but determined anglers can still have good luck fishing for big game trophies. Inshore, it’s all about Tarpon, Snook, and Snapper.

December

There won’t be much reason to head out to sea this month. So why not take some time to explore the flats and streams? You could catch Bonefish, Snook, Jacks, Tarpon and much more.
