The SILVER Kings /// We smacked'em! In 20 years of fishing for tarpon in Costa Rica, this has to rank as one of our best trips. Fishing two days with our dear friend Primo, we enjoyed calm seas and BIG, hungry tarpon:

Day 1 - Released 5 tarpon, jumped 2 others, and released 2 big jacks

Day 2 - Released 3 tarpon, jumped 3 more, and released 1 jack.

On Day 2 we didn't see a tarpon that was under 120 lbs. Both Dakota (est 150 lbs) and I (est 220 lbs) broke our personal bests.

All that action, and each day we missed several more bites. If you want to catch triple digit sized tarpon without other boats around or the fear of getting sharked, send us a message or give us a call.

“Hey Chris, The Westin was nice. We were wiped out so we didn’t do much but eat & sleep. It poured down rain the whole time so it didn’t matter.

As you already know Primo is top notch and I consider him a friend now. Fishing was tough and very slow. It was 3.5 days before we hooked the first fish, but what a fish. Then hooked two more the last day.

Holy Moly those are big fish. It’s hard to call what I did truly ‘fly fishing’. The only casting we did was the first one while drifting back from the mouth of the river, but fighting those fish on a 12 weight is unbelievable. Each fish fights a little differently. The team work it takes between the fisherman & the boat captain. The biggest one just lined out, after the first big jump & run at the boat, then pulled & pulled for a good 2 miles! No way I could have stopped it without catching up with the boat. Then it laid on its side and it was over. The second tarpon, which was half the size, made multiple runs then would run right back at the boat and dive under each side. Primo was constantly busy backing up and positioning the boat while I had the rod straight down weaving back and forth in front of the boat. It just did not want to give up…….

The third & probably the largest tarpon hit hard behind the boat, then ran straight at the boat before dodging sideways to the other side right behind the motor. I was on my tippy toes with the rod up trying to clear the motor and the cab of the boat while Primo was reeling his line in. All this happening in mere seconds... It made a short leap out of the water then dove down and came out along the boat some 30 yards out at least 10 feet in the air. I will never forget that visual. It snapped that 150lb leader while shaking its head at the peak of that jump. Unfrigginbelievable. What a fish.”
