In Costa Rica Sailfish is the primary attraction with Marlin also being a big draw. Primary offshore targets include Sailfish, Blue, Black and Striped Marlin, Dorado, Tuna, and Wahoo. All billfish are released only and should be kept in the water when taking photos. Circle hooks must also be used for all live bait.
