THE
CARIBSEA CREW
The Fishing Charter, CARIBSEA, and her crew
have established four IGFA tippet class billfish records since
1990, and there's nobody better qualified to introduce the
first-time angler to the sport or help veteran fly fishermen
chase down a record or two on their own. If you are
looking for the best fishing in Costa Rica, you've found your
boat!
