[quote]Was looking at flying down to SJO, driving over to Jaco and staying Jaco for a few nights.[/quote] Keep driving, a little further, unless you're there for "partying". [quote]Jaco near the beach?[/quote] The beaches there suck. Manuel Antonio is not much further and has great beaches...

[quote]What's the typical inch to weight ratio for trout? I have never carried a scale. My biggest is 27"[/quote] The USM GCRL over here created a chart for this. Obviously, not always correct, but a good rule of thumb. [link=(https://www.nola.com/outdoors/2014/03/chart_shows_length-weight_re...

SOB! I've been looking for a trout like that my whole life and this guy happens on one while fishing for reds with shrimp. :banghead: Seriously though, congrats to him on an awesome fish....

[quote]I have caught 20lb bull reds on my trout rod before[/quote] This was my first thought. Just work that drag and have a good hold (or tied off) to your gear. Worst case, you break off a few fish and head to the nearest tackle shop and pick up a new rig or two on your vacation. I think mos...

Yeah, it's easy to do some dumb crap at the crack of dawn with a little hangover. I always use the E brake as well. ...

Picked up a few fatties real quick this morning in possibly the dirtiest water I've ever fished here. [img]https://i.postimg.cc/0yDxyp0d/02639591-1685-4319-848-D-5-D23-C54-E8466.jpg[/img]...

[quote] Amsterdam is a great example. Flown through it many times. Never got to see the country or the city. Would like to visit the Netherlands for a day or two at least on the next layover.[/quote] I'm currently trying to make this happen for myself on a trip to UAE. It looks really easy to ...

Haven't been out there yet, since the fill. That looks weird as hell!...

[quote]We have heard that the transfers average 1.5 hours and are along a shitty 3 lane dirt road without much in the way of traffic laws.[/quote] Not even remotely true. The main highway from SJO to Jaco and then to Quepos is better than a majority of the shitty highways in LA/MS. I was shocke...

[quote]Is Gulfport far enough east? [/quote] Lot of trout been caught over there lately. [quote]Would I be wasting my time fishing Waveland area?[/quote] I wouldn't say that, but you may have to change tactics a bit, especially if wadefishinf and can't bounce around. ...

It's been real dirty since the first opening and will only get worse now. That said, there are still fish to be caught, especially reds, but can still catch plenty trout in this slop. Best options for trout though are to go further east or south and east. ...

Absolutely nothing is hard to understand about it and I don't blame the guy a bit (I'm actually a bit jealous that I didn't do it first). I'm laughing about all the "he's just doing us good and not making a dime" comments when everyone freaked out about him being banned from here. ...
