Fishing times — what to expect in this country

In Costa Rica, anglers most often target Sailfish, Blue Marlin and Yellowfin Tuna. Across North America's vast climate range, from ice-covered lakes to tropical coastlines, solunar major periods reliably overlap with tide changes on both coasts. For solunar trip planning, focus on the days around the new and full moon — major periods on these days overlap most often with sunrise and sunset, the natural feeding peaks.

How it works

The Solunar calendar uses sun and moon data to predict when fish are most active. Major periods (about 2 hours) surround the moon transits; minor periods (about 1 hour) surround moonrise and moonset. The 1-to-5 star rating factors in moon phase and overlap with sunrise and sunset. New and full moon days deliver the strongest action.

Calculated using Solunar theory for the country's population-weighted center. Times shown in the country's primary timezone. For multi-timezone countries (USA, Russia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico) state/region-level pages are more accurate where available. Free, no account needed.
