Where Legends are born.
February 19th-21st, 2026 | Quepos, Costa Rica
JOIN us in Quepos, Costa Rica, for the Pescadora Billfish Championship, the Women’s World Championship of fishing and the world’s most unique ladies' billfishing event. This ground-breaking tournament brings together women of all nationalities and experience levels to share their love of the ocean and fishing in a fun, competitive, champagne-filled weekend designed by women, for women. Compete for the title of World’s Top Lady Anglers with two top awards: one for Hook & Hand and another for Hook Your Own (per IGFA rules), along with overall team awards.
This event encourages you to step out of your comfort zone and improve your skills, whether it’s catching your first billfish, learning to use different tackle, or mastering catch and release in stand-up gear. Held at the prestigious Marina Pez Vela, the two-day tournament donates a portion of all proceeds to local Costa Rican organizations each year. Register now for an unforgettable experience!
