Member since July 2016 Playa Flamingo, Costa Rica
Background
Fishing has been my passion since I was small. I love the ocean and have lived and worked by the ocean my entire life. I love to surf and fish, so I made this my everyday hobby and job.The ocean is my office. Pura Vida!
Techniques
When I go fishing inshore I like to start trolling around 5 to 6 knots looking for live bait around the Islands. Then I go and use my down rigger between 10 and 30 + ft deep and look for roosters, amber jacks you know 'big boys". When I go offshore I use Ballyhoo as bait, and I head out for sailfish, marlin, mahi mahi and yellow fin tuna.
