Giving serious consideration for the wife and I to visit next year. Curious if anyone here has any firsthand experiences with the lodge. If we go, we will be pursuing inshore species and not Marlin or sailfish

Love the place but if I was going there for the first time, I would sample the offshore fishing for sure.

Already did the Marlin and sailfish thing in Costa Rica.

Went there last year (July) - my daughter is my youngest and will probably not hunt but is obsessed with fishing. Had a blast, but outside of the Gulf of Mexico, I have nothing to compare it to. She caught 5 blue marlin, 5 sails, 4 rooster fish, several YF tuna and some monster dorados. We fished 6 days, but only one inshore. The inshore day we caught 5 roosters, 1 cubera, 2 dorado, 1 almaco jack, and a few other species. It pissed rain that entire day, but we still had a blast. Like anything else, I'm sure pressure from the 8 billion people in this world has diminished the bounty that place once had, but it remains secluded, and the facility and service is outstanding. They have your name memorized before you arrive, the entire staff, and it is first class service from arrival to departure. We booked again for this year - same time - at DSC.
