Fly Fishing The Tropics Offers The Adventurous Lure Of Landing Some Monsters
Copyright (c) 2011 Gerry Stringer
When it's cold outside in Colorado, or how the winter of 2010-2011 is shaping up for Colorado's mountains - epic snowfall - fly fishing in the state's wonderful rivers and streams is difficult, at best. Anglers used to landing trout up high in the Rockies often turn their attention to a new experience: tropical fly fishing.
Tropical fly fishing can be quite different than mountain fishing, but the lure is irresistible. The weather is warm, of course, and from Key West down through the Caribbean rim countries, there is outstanding salt water fishing and inland freshwater venues, and the challenges, not to mention the memories, are outstanding. Look for such monsters as barracuda, bonefish, cobia, grouper, kingfish, marlin, permit, sailfish, shark, snapper, tarpon, tuna, sea bass, dorado, snook and wahoo in the saltwater flats. To find exotic catches like mojarra, bobo, machin, tepe, guapote and machaca, go inland on the rivers and streams.
Renowned fishing spots populate the Caribbean from the Keys to the Yucatan Peninsula, the Caymans, the Bahamas and St. Lucia, St. Thomas, Turks & Caicos, Puerto Rica, and in the coastal waters and inland streams of such countries as Belize, Costa Rica, Honduras. Tropical fishing is also great in Cuba, however the trip can be challenging considering all of the travel restrictions.
The help of an experienced local fishing guide is recommended for Colorado anglers who are unfamiliar with tropical fly fishing, especially where the catch can be many and quite sizable. They usually can be found through most fly fishing shops around the country which offer destination travel options, and of course searching the web is helpful as well. These in-country guides know the waters, are familiar with the various species in their area and when they run, and they also are equipped with the proper fly fishing gear appropriate for the task(s) at hand.
For instance, a guide in Costa Rica recently posted an article on the web that indicated finding tarpon in freshwater lagoons in that country which were plentiful up to 200 pounds. To reel in a giant like that, no less than a #10 rod is required. He brought along both floating line, for when the fish are striking at the surface, and sinking line for those days when the fish tend to hug the bottom of these relatively shallow (up to 20-feet deep) lagoons.
The next Google search turned up an 8-day fly fishing excursion in Honduras. For $1700 for the week, all inclusive, this outfitter was offering 5 days in that country's Bay Islands looking for permit fish, bonefish, snook, snappers, jacks and more, with travel and sightseeing days wrapping around. There are, of course, tropical fly fishing opportunities worldwide, with such popular destinations as Hawaii, Fiji and Tahiti high on the list of the most desirable. However, the Caribbean basin offers the widest set of options for both salt water and freshwater adventures.S. making these areas easy to get to from any place in the country.
Tropical fishing and deep-sea fishing are memorable experiences in any context, but adding in the romance and challenge of fly fishing for some of the most fierce fighting fish in the world is an experience of a lifetime, say those who have been there. However, they warn nearly every tropical fishing novice who is familiar with Rocky Mountain streams will want to return to the tropics annually for their winter trip. Be prepared to be hooked.

What kind of lure should I use when trolling for Dorado? (AKA Dolphinfish or Pandawan)?
This is my first time to try trolling for game fish. Since I've never tried it before, can anyone give me tips on what kind of lure to use, and how far behind to tow it? How about trolling speed?
The area is also good for Black Marlin, or so I've been told.
I would recommend rigged ballyhoo with blue or green skirts. Lures work too though. Mahi Mahi (Dorado) will eat pretty much anything, they are not picky. But they do eat their young so green/yellow lures and blue/white lures will work best. About 5knotts is a good speed but a few knotts wont make a difference. Also I've had them hit lines about 20 yards off the boat and about 200 yards off the boat, so I like to put 2 out long (100 yards or so) and 2 short ( about 50 yards). Cedar plus, Dolphin delight lures, anything will work. But I'd stick to green/yellow and blue/white lures.
As for black marlin, they will hit just about anything too, but they tend to hit larger lures, troll some big dark colored lures way back at about 6 or 7 knots.
If you want to target both species at once then troll a dark big heavy lure about 100 yards behind the boat and another lure thats smaller green/ yellow about 100 yards as well, then get 2 blue/white lures and troll them short at about 50 yards. troll 6knotts.
Once you get a fish if its a marlin, switch everything to dark big lures and troll about 7knotts with your lines way back. If its a dolphin switch everythign to green/yellow and blue/white and troll about 5knotts, with the lines varrying in distance.
