Spearfishing Success In Costa Rica
Just got back from a trip spearfishing in Costa Rica for the first time. It was really fun and we shot some great fish. Anyone been there and know of any good places and best time of year where the water has the best clarity? Here is a youtube video of our trip shooting large cubera snapper, red snapper, spanish mackeral, Jacks, and pamano:

Nice fish, were did you launch from? we dive and spear alot around Playa Herradura and what is known simply as La Isla which is nearby, many spots near that area hold cuber, mero and other species. I live in Heredia but travel to the beach every weekend.

Nice video! The first fish is either a cubera or a dog snapper, though. Looked a little dark for a cubera, but I couldn't see the white spot that dogs have up front.
