Crocodile Bay Fishing Report for April, 2024
February is the official start of the sailfish season at Crocodile Bay, and it got off to a great start. Sailfish are one of the fastest swimmers in the ocean reaching speeds of up to 85mph and can travel long distances in one day. These fish are incredibly acrobatic and can put on a great show jumping and flipping in the air when caught. Watching them swim into our spread is always an adrenaline rush. Our anglers had the opportunity to hook up and land multiple sailfish this past month, using dead rigged balihoo, live baits and artificial lures. If you want to hook your own sailfish – right now is the time! With the guidance of our experienced crews, it will be very easy for you to catch your dream sailfish.

Crocodile Bay Fishing Report for January 2024
January brought some serious fishing mojo to our waters! We’re talking about guests reeling in 60+ lbs cubera snappers and massive roosterfish ranging from 40 to 65 lbs. Our inshore action has been off the charts, and we’ve been mixing it up with different techniques like drifting live baits, vertical jigging, slow pitch, fast pitch, and even topwater action with plugs, poppers, and semi-sinking minnows. Seriously, watching those fish blast your lure is an adrenaline rush like no other!
Crocodile Bay Fishing Report for December 2023
As we close the year of 2023, I would like to start by saying thank you to all of our anglers for a spectacular year, and a huge thank you for making us one of the best sportfishing destinations in the world. Our home on the Osa Peninsula is well known for the biodiversity of its rainforests and for its abundant sea life (and amazing fishing), which keeps getting healthier due to Costa Rica’s great marine life protection laws.
Crocodile Bay Fishing Report for November 2023
Greetings from the stunning Osa Peninsula, home to Crocodile Bay and Botánika Resort! The fishing really delivered last month. November flew by and we are already in the holiday spirit here at Crocodile Bay.
While October usually steals the show for dorado, November treated us to double-digit catches almost every day. Dorado (Mahi-Mahi) are swift and can snap up your bait in a flash. And, of course, they’re not just great for the thrill of the catch, but also for a delicious dinner – a win-win for anglers!
