Tarpon Fishing Costa Rica Path: Home > Fly Fishing - Destinations > Costa Rica Fishing - Costa Rica Destinations World-Class Tarpon & Snook Fishing Tarpon Fishing Costa Rica - The Silver King Lodge has emerged as a premier fishing resort for world-class tarpon and snook. The lodge is located in the lush tropical environment on the banks of the Rio Colorado at the northeastern point of Costa Rica. Average size of the tarpon taken at the Silver King Lodge is around 80 pounds and fish to 207 pounds have been brought to gaff. Set the hook hard when they strike, then watch the water erupt as they head for the stratosphere, leaping and twisting clear of the water eight or twelve times! For snook you will troll along the banks of the quiet jungle river or drift silently into a likely lagoon, plugging toward the brush. There are also tranquil lagoons and major rivers offering light-tackle action for guapote (black bass), machaca (shad like), and exotically covered mojarra (sunfish). Silver King Lodge has 10 new deep V center console boats to fish the open waters. These boats are 23' with an out bracket holding 150 horse power 1996 Yamaha outboards. The lodge has an enclosed Jacuzzi where hors d'oeuvres and drinks are served poolside. Spacious duplex cabins have attractive rooms, each with 2 full-size beds, ceiling fans, reading lamps, and tiled bathroom with hot shower.
