Nicaragua -June 2002
This was my first fishing trip to Nicaragua. I was lucky to have booked with
Philippe Tisseaux and his company
San
Carlos Sports Fishing.
They are very well known and respected in Nicaragua. His
guides know where the big fish are and how to hook them. On this trip
we stayed at different places each night while we
fished the islands in Southern Lake Nicaragua and then up and down the Rio San Juan.
We caught lots of fish, Tarpon, Big Snook,
Rainbow Bass and many others. All the places we ate and stayed were
were basic but clean. Every meal was a treat. We ate fresh fish
daily along with many interesting and delicious local meals.
The boat crew and all local people everywhere
we went were kind, friendly,
helpful and honest. It truly is a new frontier for the adventuress fishermen.
