Where should I start? We met at an ill-defined meeting place, and the "captain" didn't appear. We found a local who knew him, and called him for us. I was handed the phone. The "captain" said he couldn't contact us the day before, and assumed the day was off. Well, I came from Ecuador, and naturally was incommunicado - my cell-phone wasn't set up for Costa Rica. The "captain's" phone number was nowhere on my paperwork, nor was the phone number of anybody else. He said we could go that afternoon, or the next day. I wanted to go at the appointed hour, since all our time was booked, and he said he would be there in half an hour. Promptly an hour and a quarter later, we got in the boat. There were issues. They had three fishing poles for four fishermen. THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY BAIT! Didn't they know fishing works better with bait? We went to buy bait from some guy floating in the bay, but he had none. So for an hour and a half - no exaggeration - we watched the "captain" try to catch some little fish for bait in a dirty little backwater. He finally caught one. We then went fishing. With plugs. We trolled around for the rest of our morning, with absolutely no bites. I, the person without a pole, was to fish after one of the others caught a fish, so I never touched a pole. And that bait fish? It was still in the live well when we left. Some extras were that there was no protection from the sun, and my vertebral column is about an inch shorter after being smashed into a big wave before we learned we had to support ourselves with our butts off the boat seat at speed. We sat in the front, the driver was standing in the back, where the smashing didn't occur. In time, my back should heal. You could say the whole day sucked. There is nothing positive to say about it. You do yourselves a disfavor by listing him.
