Central America--first timer
Looking for a new adventure as a change from my Africa and Argentina/Uruguay hunting trips. Considering a fishing trip to Central America.
What type of week-long, multi-species itinerary would you guys suggest for a first timer?
Where, and what time of year? Outfitter suggestions? Pricing?
I've talked to a few of the outfitters at SCI and frankly, I was turned off by the high-pressure, obviously high-volume sales pitches.
I'm open to a dedicated lodge, a hotel or even a mother ship type operation, although I think I'd prefer the lodge / hotel thing.
Any insight to get me started will be greatly appreciated.
Best to you all.......TWL

L. David KeithCosta Rica has outstanding seasonal fishing for Sailfish, Striped, blue and black Marlin, Dorado, Tuna and Wahoo. Good accommodations, food and charter boats.
Inshore sport fishing in Costa Rica’s Golfo Dulce for Roosterfish, Cubera Snapper, Jack Crevalle, Bluefin Trevally, Sierra Mackerel, Tripletail, and Grouper is excellent throughout the year.
I have contacts to DIY or full package fishing trips if your interested in CR.

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......
"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
