Trip Summary

Another epic day offshore! Allen and Christy were with us today from New York. They’re here fishing four days on a few different boats. Allen had a Black last year and caught a Stripe earlier in the week. He had one request for the day and that was to find a Blue and that’s exactly what we did. We raised one within the first hour that just seemed more interested in looking at the teaser than anything else before fading off. At that point I was hoping we didn’t just miss our shot. We trolled on for a couple hours circling what I believe were fish, but never raised one. Flaco went they his routine of switching out lures and found the right one. I don’t think it was in the water 30 seconds and it got piled on. About an hour later Allen released the Blue he was looking for. Not far from the release we found a school of spinner dolphin loaded with tuna. We Popeyes with them for a while keeping our limit of five and they were both smoked by this point. Allen was about ready to wrap it up, so I suggested we put a marlin spread out and just move back in the direction of the marina. Right about the time he finished talking about how wore out he was another marlin came to the teaser and Flaco made a perfect pitch with a Bonita and the gluten for punishment began. After another hour or so of rod passing and beer breaks, marlin number two was released and I was told “don’t put another damn thing in the water” … mission accomplished. Tally for the day 2/3 Blue Marlin 5 Tuna #quepossportfishing #manuelantonio #marinapezvela#fishingcostarica #travelcostarica #fishing #billfish #squidnation #quepostackleshop #bigluresmatter
