Join the crew for a unique experience. Whether you are after big numbers or big fish, there is a trip for you. Everyone is welcome to join in the adventure.

The crew will guide you through the basics before you make your first cast and show you the ropes. The boat is a 35' Cabo Express. She comes powered by two 420 HP engines and has plenty of fishing space for up to 6 anglers. The boat is rigged with a GPS, a fishfinder, and two VHF radios, radar, as well as outriggers, electric reels for dredges, and safety equipment with a life raft for a professional fishing experience.

Enjoy a morning out on the water or check the bite later in the afternoon. Stay for the whole day and explore those productive waters and all the fish species that reside up to 26 miles out. Test yourself in light tackle trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, popping, and deep sea fishing for whatever is biting. Your potential catch can include Skipjack and Yellowfin Tuna, Black and Blue Marlin, Wahoo, Spanish Mackerel, Red Snapper, Sailfish, Roosterfish, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, and who knows what else?

All trips aboard are all-inclusive. You will only need to bring your desire to have fun. Half day adventures include chips, fruit, water, beer, soda, and juices, while full day trips come with a light lunch.

Jon e sua moglie si sono trasferiti a Tamarindo dalla città nel 2006. Tamarindo è una località di surf e allora il capitano ha capito che il surf non fa per lui. Invece, si è subito innamorato della pesca. Il Capitano Jon ha pescato l'intera costa del Pacifico del Costa Rica da allora, da Golfito (vicino a Panama) alle Isole Bat (vicino al Nicaragua). Ha sviluppato molte amicizie attraverso questo meraviglioso sport e ha incontrato grandi capitani su ogni località di pesca sulla costa del Pacifico. Ora, il capitano gestisce un'operazione di pesca di successo basata a Tamarindo rappresentando alcuni dei migliori capitani e equipaggi sulle migliori località di pesca del Costa Rica.
