FAD Fishing in Costa Rica

offshore world championshipA lot of people are interested in FAD fishing when they come to Costa Rica nowadays. This is a tactic that has long been used in the commercial sector, however, it is fairly recent when it comes to sports fishing.

FAD stands for ‘fish aggregating device’. It is essentially an object that is used to attract ocean going pelagic fish, such as Mahi-Mahi, Yellowfin Tuna, Skipjack Tuna, Mackerel, Wahoo, Dorado, Bigeye Tuna, and, of course, Marlin. The Blue Marlin, in particular, is considered a real prize for those enjoying Quepos fishing FADs.

These buoys come in various sizes and shapes, which is why they are able to attract a huge number of fish, with different species being attracted for different reasons. For example, large predators, like Tuna and Marlin, congregate around FADs to feed, whereas small bait fish are naturally attracted to these devices and often find refuge around them. The fish won’t remain stationary; they will move around the device in differing orbits.

Fishing FADs in Quepos, Costa Rica, is popular because it means that anglers can expect to hook ten or more Marlin per trip, and that’s at a minimum! There are plenty of stories about anglers raising more than 30 Marlin and releasing half of them in just one day, and they are certainly not myths. Quepos FAD fishing is particularly popular because of the sheer diversity of fish that are found in the waters here.
