3/4 Day Trip on January 19, 2024

Carlos knew exactly where to take us for our 3/4day trip. We're were catching fish 45 min after taking off and fishing was steady all day. By the end we had 2 yellow fin and 2 Mahi in the boat(lost a couple others, also caught 3 sailfish and had a marlin on. Amazing experience!

Didn’t really get to fish

3/4 Day Trip on March 29, 2022

Obviously the captain and crew can’t control whether or not you get any bites, but we literally didn’t get to touch a single piece of equipment. They set all the lines, changed the lures, everything. We just sat there, and in the whole 6 hours didn’t do a single bit of fishing. We ended up seeing some tuna jumping but never got a bite, so who knows how much of the actual reeling in we would have gotten to do. The crew was nice enough, captain was completely different than who we were told it would be but he was also nice and I do believe they were trying their best, just disappointed that we basically sat there and did nothing for 6 hours. At least we got to see dolphins jumping, but I wouldn’t call it a fishing trip by any stretch of the imagination. It was a very expensive boat ride.

Jon and his wife moved to Tamarindo from the city in 2006. Tamarindo is a surfing town and back then the captain realized that surfing is not his thing. Instead, he instantly fell in love with fishing. Capt. Jon has fished the entire Pacific coast of Costa Rica since then, from Golfito (near Panama) to the Bat Islands (near Nicaragua). He has developed many friendships through this wonderful sport and has met great captains on each fishing location on the amazing Pacific coast. Now, the captain runs a successful fishing operation based in Tamarindo representing some of the best captains and crews on the best fishing locations of Costa Rica.
