El Parque Nacional Corcovado es hogar del mas grande y único bosque lluvioso tropical primario del mundo, ubicado en tierras bajas además alberga una plétora de especies de animales y plantas en peligro.

El Parque Nacional Corcovado fue creado en 1975 para proteger esta gloriosa región de los buscadores de oro y logging y es hoy uno de los destinos ecoturtisticos más populares. Debido a que es un poco aislado y difícil de acceder es un parque que poco se ha tocado.

Es hogar de la rara Ardilla Mico Harbor y del Águila Feliz, El Parque Corcovado es también un gran lugar para observar el venenoso sapo flecha, gatos salvajes indígenas, cocodrilos, pumas y jaguares lo mismo que cuatro especies de tortugas marinas.

El parque es extremadamente caliente, húmedo y con mucha lluvia casi todo el año, pero es muy divertido hacer caminatas a lo largo de esta densa vegetación que se abre a unas maravillosas playas. Con su belleza natural virgen este parque le permite experimentar la naturaleza en lo más fino y promete una increíble aventura para aquellos que se atreven a abrir camino a lo largo de esta sorprendente región. Es muy popular hacer excursiones aquí y se encuentra cuatro estaciones de guardabosques, estratégicamente ubicados la una de la otra. Tomar un tour guiado es la mejor forma para observar el parque ya que hay muchos animales salvajes que merodean por todas partes. Contrate un guía en la Bahía Drake o en Puerto Jiménez y tendrá las vacaciones perfectas, llenas de aventura.

Usted puede llegar al Parque Nacional Corcovado vía Puerto Jiménez o la Bahía Drake. Estos dos pueblos son la principal puerta de entrada al parque. Para llegar a Puerto Jiménez puede tomar un vuelo directamente de San José, mientras que para llegar a la Bahía Drake usted puede volar a Sierpe y de ahí coger un bote a este pequeño pueblo.

Sport Fishing Costa Rica Mahi Mahi

The Dolphin, also known as Mahi Mahi or Dorado, is one of the most exciting offshore gamefish to catch and see in the open ocean. This beautifully colored fish can be found in all tropical and warm temperate seas of the world. When hooked these fish "light up" with almost neon colors and put up an exciting, high jumping, tail walking fight.

Dolphin are prolific breeders, rapid growing and short lived which make them an excellent choice as a gamefish because they can sustain recreational catch efforts without fear of overfishing.
A dolphin can grow to a weight of about 80 pounds and live only about five years. The dolphin’s coloring can range from a dark blue along its back and changes laterally through a green – gold – yellow color spectrum as look from their back to their belly. Mature males or bulls are easily distinguished by their high flat forehead and are usually larger than the females or cows. Smaller fish travel in schools (schoolies) which can range from a few fish to several dozen. Larger bulls and cows travel alone or in pairs.
These fish are commonly found near floating objects and Sargassum weed lines and patches. They feed on the sea life which seek shelter near and in the floating structures, such as flying fish, squid and sea horses. Dolphin like warm water, generally greater than 68^oF, 78^o – 85^oF is preferred.

Fishing Basics

Trolling is one of the most productive and my favorite method of catching dolphin.
My tackle choice is a 20# - 30# lever drag reel, a matched 5-1/2’ – 6’ stand-up rod and 20# – 30# mono line.

I like to troll natural baits such as ballyhoo rigged on #7 or #8 coffee colored stainless steel wire. One end of the wire will have a haywire twist to attach to the fishing line via snap swivel and the other end will have 7/0 or 8/0 hook attached using a haywire twist and pin rig. The ballyhoo may be trolled naked or with a skirt or skirted lure over its head. Trolling speed is a matter of how the baits look in the water. I have found that trolling 6 to 8 knots is best. In heavier seas travel down seas so the baits stay in the water better.

They can also be readily caught on artificial lures, feathers, spoons, etc.
Once a school dolphin is hooked and brought to the boat, leave it in the water. The rest of the school will usually follow and stay nearby. Chum with cut bait or glass minnows will bring them in close and put them in a frenzy, For a wild and exciting experience start casting your spinning rods/fly rods with yellow or white bucktail jigs/flys . Usually they will hit so fast you just have time to set the hook as it hits the water. Wow!!

Costa Rica’s Pacific coast. Sport Fishing Tirsio Hidalgo

More than 40 fishing world records have been registered along the central and southern portions of Costa Rica’s Pacific coast. With offshore waters that boast fish weighing between 4 and 400 pounds – including sailfish, marlin, yellowfin tuna, wahoo, snapper and more – it’s little surprise that the fishing here is so good. As such, sport fishing tours are a wonderful way for both beginners and experts alike to get their hands wet while reeling in a whopper. The tours, which employ well-equipped fishing boats, can be as short as a half day or as long as seven days. Certain seasons are better for certain types of fish, and some of the best fishing spots in the country are Manual Antonio, Playa Ocotal, and Uvita.
