BigGrin Going for the deep ones in Quepos Costa Rica





Nobody really does deep dropping here in Quepos, so i thought we'd be the first ones to try and man we had some pristine fishing. Every drop was something, if we sent down three hooks, we had three fish, amazing day out here deep drop fishing! These were all caught at around 400 ft (I know this isn't super deep dropping) but there are just a ton of rocks I always marked and knew there were fish down there. We are going to ramp up the bait size on the next couple of deep drop trips and i bet soon we'll start seeing the 100+ pound groupers. Right now we are fishing a simple 3 drop chicken rig with dead squid, these guys said they just wanted action. We filled the cooler getting a couple of grouper from each spot of the 50sh spots that I have marked while I was billfishing! These were all done on my 28 foot panga at around 18 miles out (that trip runs 600 a day). Great deep drop fishing, I WISH MORE PEOLE ASKED FOR IT, lots of fun nailing the big ones here in Quepos Costa Rica!!!

Man, the hard part about fishing in Costa Rica is that everything here is just called grouper in Spanish. I think so, but I'm not really sure. I know where they live, and what they eat, but I haven't taken the time to go get a book and figure out what they are exactly I figured somebody on here might know???
