“It was a pleasure to be a part of the 1st Annual Jungle’s Edge Tarpon Tournament in Manzanillo, Costa Rica!” – Capt. Jesse Males

The Jungle’s Edge Tarpon Tournament was put on by Tarponville Fishing Lodge down on Costa Rica’s beautiful caribbean coast. I am happy to say that Backwater Fly Fishing was able to be one of the many sponsors for this wonderful event.

Tarponville Fishing Lodge is located on an amazing tarpon fishery that is truly world class. Despite the bad weather during the tournament anglers did manage to put a few hooks in some tarpon and tackle a few jacks as well.

On the last day of fishing, Brooke was able to qualify for one of our Custom Wooden Tarpon Boxes that we were giving away as a prize.

I must say, I am very pleased to be able to hand off this wonderful gift to such a great angler!
