My relatives, the Wolin family of Plymouth/Jackson, CA, has a place in Los Barriles.
Heard they caught a few more Big Bulls today. My buddy fished in the "Dorado shoot out" out of Los Barriles yesterday and took third place with a 47lb 6oz bull Dorado. The winning fish was 53lb. First place was $250,000 plus a new Ford truck.
That is about $300,000 plus winnings? Wow......

I heard some time ago that while teasing up sailfish off of Costa Rica they catch large Dorado.
