A very interesting fishing article, "Summertime Sails, Even during the rainy season, Flamingo, Costa Rica provides excellent billfishing opportunities." - Story and Photography by Mark B. Hatter.
 Quoting Mark,
"I fired off an e-mail to Capt. Bubba Carter, an expert Atlantic captain with whom I’d fished for Atlantic blues, for a Pacific-coast recommendation. His response was quick and succinct: “You want Capt. Richard Chellemi on the Gamefisher II. He is the best captain I know and operates out of Flamingo, Costa Rica, which is a great spot for fly-size blues.” You can read the entire article in PDF format by clicking here

When the BBC made their epic and award winning series "The Blue Planet" they filmed a lot of the series from Gamefisher2. They worked with Us to find the fish and get the best shots possible.
