In the beginning



I have been fly fishing the waters of Costa Rica for over 10 years.  In that time, I have had opportunity to visit many areas of the  country; with fly rod in hand.  I get to speak to the locals and inquire on the fishing ("hay pez?").  The local fisherman are eager to share their knowledge of the local waters, and I in turn, will share with you. There are many exotic species in our country that beckon an adventurous  spirit with a fly rod.

Fly fishing in Costa Rica is relatively unknown. There are no fly shops and no "Orvis authorized"  anything. Don't get me wrong, I am not the first to throw a fly out down here, but I have  blazed some new trails. I have learned and fished with some of  the best fly fishermen in country,  and in doing so, have learned much.  From the northern waters of giant tarpon country to the mountain trout streams, Costa Rica offers a  fly fishing experience unique to this part of the world.

In the future I will endeavor to enlighten and entertain those of you taken with this inglorious past time; come back and take a look
