Have you ever tried saltwater fishing during your holidays in Cuba, Mexico or Costa Rica? The Cuban Cayos — Ensenachos, Santa Maria, Guillermo, Coco, Paredon — offer outstanding DIY shore and boat fishing. For a more intense experience, Mexico (Playa del Carmen) and Costa Rica are top destinations for Speed Jigging, Slow Pitch Jigging and Popping, targeting large pelagic species.
You will find below our fishing experiences in Mexico, Costa Rica and Cuba — pictures, videos, gear tips, knots and fish identification. You will also find a section on our friends. The Silver King (tarpon) is my favorite fish. I refine my skills after each trip, testing gear matched to the target species. Cross swords with a Sabalo (tarpon), Cubera, Jiguagua (jack crevalle), Picua (barracuda) or Pargo snapper — these fish will fuel your passion for saltwater fishing.
Slow Pitch Jigging — a Japanese technique by Norihiro Sato — uses 150–300 g jigs worked with slow lifts and free-fall pauses, imitating a wounded baitfish. Giant amberjacks, tuna, grouper, snapper: a whole new world. Night popping for large trevally is simply stunning.
