Sport Fishing Costa Rica Offshore - Inshore - Kayak - and Surf
fishing
For that we practiced the sport fishing in the coasts, coastal
estuaries, rocky mouths of rivers and projections in many occasions we
will have the opportunity of which a species of fish enlists to us,
great power and delicious meat, to our hooks with bait or sport fishing lures.
This species snapper is known him commonly as and belong to an immense
called family Lutjanidae.
By the importance that it has this species in which to fishing economy
it also talks about and by the importance in the sport fishing, is that
the present writing has the purpose of presenting the habits, customs
and techniques of fishing to obtain the effectiveness in the capture of
this species.
However, by means of the writing the representative sorts but at level
of Latin American area will be analyzed, giving special emphasis to the
eleven sorts that more commonly are in America.
 The analysis will
appear to way of fishing guide and he himself will be based on the
experience of fishing of the author and also he will be based on the
interchange of opinions with recognized
Costa Rica fishermen.
It is important to stress that throughout the writing one will make
reference to marks and specific models of sport fishing lures, without special
preference by some of them exists, but as it said in the previous
paragraph, the writing is based on the experience and of her it is that
they have determined certain sport fishing lures that have demonstrated devastating
attraction for the species that is incumbent on to us.

KNOWING snapper
1. GREAT FAMILY LUTJANIDAE The snapper belongs to the great Lutjanidae
family and this one as well conforms more than 350 species, divided in
practically 17 sorts, being most representative at world-wide level
Lutjanus.
This species this distributed in the Indian Ocean, Atlantic and Pacific
from the south of California, where it is known like Network Snapper
until Corozal, Colombia. Existing registries of captures non confirmed
until the North zone of Peru.
The fossil registries of the snapper, indicate us that this species dates
from the Tertiary one, Eocene, reason why it is a fact that this
population has managed to evolve until the point to become a species
absolutely adapted to the present conditions in the Tropical and
Subtropics of the planet, where the temperatures oscillate between 25°C
and 37°C. Its distribution includes practically the totality of the
existing marine biotopes in the coastal zone, including mangles,
reefs, coastal lagoons, estuaries and areas with fresh water with
salinities until of 50 ppm (parts by million).
In all these areas, we can find them from the 30 centimeters of depth to
the 125 meters or more.
The Lutjanidae family can be divided in four great subfamilies, that is
to say:
* The Subfamily Etilanae, who includes five sorts as well: Aphareuis,
Apricon, Etilis, Pritipomoides and Randallichthys.
All of them characterize for being fish elongated with fin of great
volume strongly branched off and rays of more well-known extended the
later dorsal fin and anal fin.
* Subfamily Apsilinae, composed by four sorts that are: Apsilus,
Lipocheiluus, Paracaesio and Parapristipomoides, being all of them less
elongados than the previous ones and with the last ray of shorter the
dorsal and anal fin. The most excellent characteristics of this
family are that they have a high body with the fin of great volume
marginalized and very little branched off. The grudges in the base of
the dorsal and anal fin are inlaid to the skin. They are characterized
not to have vomerinos teeth and in addition in certain smooth dorsal
fins and annals are filamentous prolongations.
* The subfamily Lutjaninae who this conformed by six sorts, that is to
say the Hoplopagrus, Macolor, Ocyurus, Pinjalo, Rhomboplites and
Lutjanus.
The body of them is extended, with its strongly branched off fin of
great volume truncated and. It presents/displays grudges in the base of
the dorsal fin and in the fin of great volume inlaid in the skin and all
they have its characteristic vomeridos teeth. |
