Surf Fishing in Costa Rica when the Local POLICE showed up

- Surf fishing in Costa Rica can be amazing, it takes very little special tackle and just some patience. In this video we walked the beaches of Playa Tamarindo surf fishing for Jacks and other local fishes.
The surf fishing here can be amazing, Jacks, Blue Runners, Roosterfish, Mackerel and even Snappers can be caught on artificial or the abundant live bait that can be found near the beach. We were surf fishing using 3/4oz kastmaster spoons and YOZURI suspended twitch baits.
We walked the beach looking for signs of bait then made the best cast we could. Working your lures as quickly as possible for the Jacks really seemed to work the best.
We also encountered the local Costa Rican Police in this video, when they came over to check our catch and say Hi. We let them take the fish with them for Dinner.
Hope you enjoy this amazing SURF FISHING vid from Tamarindo and we'll
SEE YOU OUT THERE

One of my favorite days ever in Costa Rica. Hope y'all enjoy this amazing video.
Love seeing great people living it up brother 👊
@@Try2KeepUpK Thank you!!!
Great video! I'm in tamarindo where is this beach?
@@danielmedeiros6761 it's the main beach straight out from the Diria
Stumbled on this video. Respect for how quickly you unhooked the jack. Smart and generous to give the fish away. A few thoughts, 2 years ago we took our 9 year old grandson to Costa Rica. Our grandson is soccer obsessed. In the jungles around the volcanos he was bored and had me try to play soccer with him. At age 73 with arthritis I wasn't much fun for my grandson. A tall policeman appeared. For over an hour he taught our grandson to do various drills to better control the ball. The people there trust their government. At the time citizens were told to wear masks because of lingering covid. In remote areas we saw people wear masks.
Once in Morocco I used a fly rod and successfully caught fish on a jetty that was on the Atlantic ocean side people were upset that I released fish. A high school aged boy explained in English the people around me were desperate to catch fish to eat. Caught some more and gave them away but stopped fishing .
I will subscribe and hope to see you get into fly fishing. Thanks
Was just in CR also last week. Great vid and so cool showing the interaction with the locals. I do the same. Offer my fish to locals as appreciation for letting me fish in their beautiful country. I just subscribed. Hope to see more great stuff from you guys!
Awesome, thank you so much!!! We love CR and plan to retire there. Such a special and amazing place
What a great advert for Costa Rica fishing and Costa Rica. Great fun
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!!
Happy Birthday, Corey !
Y'all are very fortunate to spend some time in beautiful Tamarindo; Costa Rica is such a beautiful country full of wonderful people, and the fishing is so great, too
It really is!
Wow so cool! Thank you so much for sharing your travel adventure. Once again y’all have inspired me to get “out there!” Happy birthday
Yeeaaahhhh!!!! Thank you so much
Thank you!!!!
Awsome fun!
Thank you so much!!! Headed back in May, hopefully the bite is good!
@@see_you_out_there cool u should think about keeping some of ur catch and take it to a restaurant and have a chef work his magic!
@@kevinleach9631 weve done that in the past and it's always amazing!!!
I lived in Pavones for a few years and fished quite a bit, and the cops never bothered me. They're usually pretty cool down there as long as you're cool. I'm going to visit my son there in February and plan to fish in Lake Arenal and somewhere around Nicoya.
The police there do their own cooking in the station (la delegación) and I'm sure they appreciated the jack. I don't like to eat them, too bloody. But Ticos don't mind and I gave them jacks too. We caught some bruisers trolling for mahi and tuna in El Golfo Dulce. Big mackerel too.
I love Costa Rica and I hope I can figure out how to live there permanently. I have a son there so I have the right to be there. It's a beautiful country with mostly great people.
I love how you think you’re leaving and then you’re on again! 😂Pura vida
Epic video! You guys definitely laid into the jacks!!! Yewww! Thanks for the shout out 🙏 Definitely reach out next time you come and visit CR!
We will for sure!!!

What a luvly beach. Jacks from the shore is such fun. Happy B'day Cory and congrats on the fish. My wife is now determined to get one on our hols. Shes had a big one (her 1st fish in Texas) from the South Jetty but shes hungry for more seeing yours.
Awesome good luck to your wife!!!;
Awesome vid!! Stoked to be headed down there this weekend and hopefully do some shore pounding! Congrats on a good morning of catching!
Awesome hope yall catch em up!!!! We will be back down the week after!!1 YEEWWWWWW
Looks like a blast. Happy birthday Corey !!
Thank you so much!!
It aint a party till the cops show up man!
That's a fact!!!
Nice catches! I'm hoping to do a little surf fishing if I can find some gear down there. Maybe just for rent. Seems a lot cheaper than doing a charter.
Nice way to celebrate a birthday 🎂 happy birthday !
Yes it was, thank you so much!!
Thank you Jesus!
Great video and fishing. Happy birthday Corey, making the TAMUG family proud! Did y'all get a chance to surf? God bless and keep up the great videos.
I am from Costa Rica. Cop's got there first so let them have it. They going to eat a good meal.
Happy birthday Ms. C enjoy your day
Thank you
Thank you!!!!!
Nice job Brad! Happy Birthday Cory!
Thank you so much
Thank you!!!!
Going to Ocotal in July it’s a little further to the north. Just wondering if you have any idea if I would be able to do the same kind of fishing from that beach as well? What kinda rod and reel were you using? Any other tips would be greatly appreciated! Great Vid!
Happy Birthday Corey!!!
Thank you Mark!!!!
We are heading to Costa Rica in May. Hope to have some good luck. Happy birthday.
Hope you guys have great luck!! What part of Costa will you be in?
@@see_you_out_there Del CoCo beach area.
@@legendaryfishing4362 ok awesome area!!! Super jealous and hope y'all find a great bite!!
Good Luck!!!!
Amazing and happy birthday Corey :)
I'm going to Costa Rica next year and your vid is inspiring.
I was wondering what's a standard fishing gear (rod & reel) for a beginner I can put in my luggage to fish from the beach ?
Happy late Birthday to the wife congratulations on the pomp !!!
Thank you so much
Happy birthday little bit!!
Thank you SO much!
Man im in coco right now, been trying to catch anything but no luck. I even threw squid out there on the bottom and nothing?
Wow!! Man sorry to hear that, I'd look for rocks and some strong current or wave action!!
I can’t wait to see their faces when they taste that Jack!
We actually did a taste on a Jack and it was way way better than I thought it would be

Happy Birthday !!!!
Thank you so much
Thank you!!!!
what kind of pole do you use for surf fishing? I want to take a pole next time I go down to Tamarindo but I've never rigged for salt water and I need a pole that I can fly with. Cheers.
@@larsendrake I actually have a video on that specific rod. It's called the best travel rod

We were down again, we try to make it down twice a year. Thank you so much for watching
@@see_you_out_there Y’all are livin right! Got any tips for your subs on how to do it on a budget and still get the most out of a trip? 🤷🏼♂️🍻
@@IWillNotArgueWithMorons man that could be a really good vid. Let me see if I can put one together
Thank you!!! N
Happy Birthday!
Thank you
Thank you ❤️
What did you change with the leader? Excited to try out the Yo-Zuri
It's a great lure!! That large spoon was a killer too
@@see_you_out_there what size on thoe Yo-Zuris? 3 1/2 in or 4 3/8? Thanks in advance
@@JusQQQ personally I'd choose the 3 1/2"
Any advice on plugs, spoons or other lures to use down there? Going to tamarindo for three months soon and planning on bringing some fishing gear for the surf.
Yes sir!! Talk about other lures to take in this video!!th-cam.com/video/vmhshpXT1Pw/w-d-xo.html
Happy Birthday Cory
Thank you so much
Thank you ❤️
What hotel is on that beach, and what month were the jacks there?
@@geoffreymorales6690 the Diria and all Rainy season
Great vids 👍. What size rod is that btw
It's an 8ft. We have a vid specifically on that rod!!
We're headed down to Tamarindo in 2 weeks! Would love to get your feedback about fishing the area and any more tips you might have. I'm planning to bring a flyrod but am toying with bringing some spinning gear just in case I need the reach. Super stoked!
Awesome you will love it. We will actually be back there in 3 weeks!!! There are fly fishing opportunities in both near by rivers. The one at Tama and around the corner to South in Playa Langosta.
Hey I’m headed to CR for honeymoon in a few months. Did you end up taking fly gear? Would love to pick your brain
Happy Birthday.
Thank you
Thank you!!!!!
Where are os that? Pura Vida!!
Tama
sent you a like and a huge HBD!!!!
Thank you so much!!!!
Dude we went out with a captain and the coast guard rolled up on us. Now I know why we were catching fish while other boats weren't We were fishing inside of a national park, have to be off by a mile or so maybe 3. Come to find out the captain was already on probation for doing the same thing, we had no clue what the rules were but he did ... was just trying to get us on some fish. Many talk about what is going to happen now. Thought they were going to take our gear and gopros , our fish at a minimum at least! We had cooler with tails sticking out but the captain positioned the boat so they couldn't see it. Everything worked out and we were just 'bird watching', that's what the captain told the CG anyways.
Cool, man!!! Breaking the law in a foreign country while killing wildlife in a protected area an being proud of it!! You americans really do us all a favour by disappering off the face of Earth.
Hello! We are going next month to Jacò…are we able to surf fish on Playa Hermosa beach? I believe it’s a big surfing spot.
As long as the waves aren't huge you should easily be able surf fish. There are some points and rocks around there that should protect it a bit
@@see_you_out_there awesome! Thank you!
What rod/reel combo were you using?
th-cam.com/video/MqPPKoTsNSs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=lq9xhgnXK41obELJ
Great video!!! Can you tell me about your rod and reel setup??? Gracias!!!🤙
We have a separate vid on the rod I am sure you will enjoy. The reel is a Penn 4000 battle dx. It is a great and very affordable reel. We will be doing a full video review of it in the coming weeks
We are going to Jaco, Costa Rica I'm March. Have you fished the surf on that beach?
No I have not fished the beach there, fished a boat out of there and had a great trip though. search our vids for a Massive Wahoo video!!!! Good luck on your trip
hey folks ill be there next week. my question is.. do i need a fishing lizens??
No license required when surf fishing
Great Video but l struggled to hear the Howler Monkey s for the Yankees why are you so loud?
Lol, this guy!!
Happy Birthday
Thank you so much
Thank you Kevin!!!!
hey how was the process for bringing tackle onto the flights? im heading to costa rica this week and was going to bring a few rods and was planning to bring some lures. what was the process of bring lures, hooks and terminal tackle through? what lures did you manage to bring?
I was able to bring a ton of tackle. I loaded up 3 Plano boxed with every spoon, lure, bucktail jig I could ever want and then put that into my check baggage. The three oeoce rod was easy as well because I always travel to CR with a few surfboards. The travel rod fit easily into my board bag.
what pole andsize tess line?
Goture Travel rod - Med/Hvy with 20lb Braid
Did you a travel rod on this trip , we are planning a trip in 2024 .
Yes I took a travel rod with us, I did a separate vid on that rod. Good luck on your trip, where are you headed too?
Not sure yet , because we have a large group and some of kids are still in university. As long as I can get some surf fishing first thing in the morning iam all good . Just got back from Cuba and caught a 55lbs tarpon on a inlet using a musky bait , and a few jack fish .
OK the wife asked exactly where you stayed, sounds like this trip might come together thanks again.
Do you know if you are allowed to fish at playa tulemar?
Sorry not familiar with that beach
Is it goture fishing rod that you are using it on your review lately?
Thank you for watching
May I ask which resort you stayed at? Thank you.
The Diria
What hotel is this??
The Diria

Thank you!!
Looked like a foul hook
Okie dokie
What rod and reel were you using?
Penn Battle DX and a GOTURE travel rod. I have vid on both of them on the channel

Can you eat a jack ?
Yes you can, we actually have a video from Key West where we taste tested one for the first time.
What part of Costa Rica is are ya fishing?

Are you still using this rod
Yes I am!! Still really happy with it
@@see_you_out_there do you think this rod is durable
@@truongtintrung8092 I hate to say this soon, I have several more trips planned this year with it. I'm gonna do an update video on it for sure
What rod are you using? I'm headed down in October. Got myself a couple Slammer reels, but need a good travel rod.
The next vid on our channel is all about it!!! It's the GOTURE travel rod
@@see_you_out_there Awesome I actually just found it thank you!
