Sailfish on Booby Trap II

The crew aboard Booby Trap II was surprised when they caught a sailfish along the rocks in Los Sueños, Costa Rica.

Capt. Brett Holden aboard Booby Trapp II sent in a picture of a sailfish they hooked just outside of the marina in Los Sueños, Costa Rica. He reports, “We took my son, brother in law and nephew roosterfishing a couple of hours this evening just outside the marina. After getting my nephew, Mario Lerma ll, a nice rooster, his dad, Mario Lerma, caught this sailfish on a live runner. The bite has been close for us this week. Yesterday we went four for 7 on sails just six miles out of the marina in two hours. We are loving it here!”
