Inshore Fishing
When Inshore Fishing for Roosterfish in the Gulf of Papagayo, our priority is to focus on Rooster Fishing. We use live bait trolling in shallow water. While Rooster fishing, there are opportunities to catch other species such as Dorado (mahimahi) and yellowfin tuna through trolling, as well as snapper and amberjack by jigging on Bottom.
You can also bring your own Fishing tackle to try fishing while we catch your Rooster fish as well!
Roosterfish are usually found in very shallow water, around 20 feet or deeper. They typically weigh between 40 to 50 pounds, but some can reach up to 70 pounds. These fish are robust and put up a good fight, which can last up to 45 minutes depending on their size. While they are not typically considered an edible species, Roosterfish are highly sought after by anglers who enjoy Inshore Fishing in the Gulf of Papagayo and appreciate a good fight.
On our Roosterfish Fishing Trips, we also offer trolling for Mahi-Mahi and Yellowfin Tuna. We do efficient Bottom Fishing and jigging to catch Red and Cubera Snapper.
We can pick you up at your hotel beach for your fishing charter at 1:00 pm, or earlier if that works better for you.
Please let us know your preference.
