Flamingo, Costa Rica, is one of sportfishing’s most legendary destinations, an idyllic laid-back beach community located in the Central American nation’s northern Pacific coast. A short run to the fishing grounds brings excellent opportunities for all three species of marlin (blue, black, and striped) as well as sailfish, tuna, wahoo, and mahi-mahi, called dorado locally. Back inshore there are roosterfish, jacks, grouper, and snapper.

Based on this excellent fishing as well as a desire to get back to the basics with a fun tournament.
