LIGHT-TACKLE PARADISE IN GUATEMALA

Hooking billfish is very much like a sweet golf swing. It takes practice and a fair amount of repetition to be able to hit that little white ball straight down the fairway, and it's the same with fishing: You need to get the shots if you hope to improve your bite-to-hookup ratio.

Few places on the planet are better suited for this than the Pacific coast of Guatemala. For decades, this region has been attracting anglers thanks to incredible numbers of billfish, especially sailfish. No matter if you're an experienced angler looking to put a fine edge on your skills or a relative newcomer to the sport interested in learning more, this is without a doubt the place to be.
