By Richard McColl

Every June and July enthusiast fishermen descend onto the murky pacific waters in Bahia Solano, Cupica and Tribuga in order to participate in catch and release tournaments. The prize is not the money offered as these fishermen well know, but to snare a marlin, measure it and release it - after a photo of course - for bragging rights. Along with marlin people haul in tuna, barracuda and sharks.

Getting There
To get to Bahia Solano catch a flight from Medellin. Satena has frequent flights.
