The right choice when you want to catch the fish of your dreams. Join Captain Luis and target monster pelagic species all day long. Your guide is a pro when it comes to offshore fishing and has a successful career in Quepos.

You'll be fishing on a 28' boat, named Cocodrilo XVII. This Mako center console was custom-built and restored in 2019. She features enough space for 4 anglers to fish in comfort. The boat is powered by a 300 HP Suzuki engine and reaches the speed of 25 knots. Besides navigational electronics, the boat also has a private toilet, a livewell full of fresh bait for inshore fishing, and Tuna tubes for anglers with bigger fish to fry.

During the summer months, it's great to start an inshore trip. This is where you get to target Cubera Snapper, Jack Crevalle, Roosterfish, and other tasty species. But if you're ready for something more challenging, take an offshore trip and target big game species, such as Black, Blue, and Striped Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Sailfish, and Tuna.

You can choose between light and heavy tackle, depending on your targets. All fishing equipment you'll need for the day is included in the price. Fly anglers are also welcome to bring their favorite fly fishing gear. Your snacks and drinks are also covered.

Half Day Trip on June 3, 20263 adults

Crew was great. They worked hard to find us fish. Started out catching bait and that went very well. then tried to catch mahi mahi with no luck. moved to find fish using live bait with no luck. then moved again and found fish using live bait. caught 5 yellow fin snapper in an hour. boys were happy because they each caught 2 fish.

Reported catch:
Bohar Snapper

Response from Captain

Hi Jason, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and for the kind words about our crew. We truly appreciate it. Fishing can be unpredictable at times, and while the mahi-mahi weren't cooperating that day, we're glad the team stayed committed, kept moving, and ultimately found action on the live bait. Catching 5 yellowfin snapper and seeing the boys enjoy landing fish of their own is what it's all about! It was a pleasure having your family aboard, and we hope to welcome you back to Costa Rica for another adventure. Next time, we'll be ready to chase even bigger fish together. Tight lines and safe travels! Captain Oscar & The Sushi Hunter Team 🎣🐟🌊

Great half day inshore fishing trip with Pica & Junior
Quick Catch 3 Hour Fishing Blast on December 5, 20254 adults1 child

Amazing half day inshore fishing trip with family ! Captain and crew were very nice, experienced and helpful. We caught triple tails and macarela surrunded by multile dolphins swimming around us, they knew exactly where to go and we did the best out of the time we had ! They were very nice to our little 10yo girl that was able to catch a great fish ! Absolutely incredible tour, 100% recommended !

50lbs mahi-mahi!
3/4 Day Trip Inshore on April 14, 20264 adults

We had a great experience! We would definitely repeat and recommend it. The initial idea was to catch some tuna, but the plan changed and we ended up catching two sailfish and a 50 lb mahi-mahi. The crew members were very knowledgeable about fishing spots for live bait and the small details of the area.

Luis Gatgens Ortega
Response from Captain

Hi Ariel, Thank you so much for your amazing review! 🙌 We're thrilled to hear you had such a great experience with us. It sounds like the ocean had an even better plan that day,landing two sailfish and a 50 lb mahi-mahi is definitely something special! 🎣🔥 Our crew takes a lot of pride in knowing the waters, the bait, and all those small details that make a big difference, so it really means a lot to hear that reflected in your experience. We truly appreciate your recommendation and we would love to have you back on board anytime for another unforgettable day out on the water. Pura vida! 🌊 The Sushi Hunter Team

Fishing with Sushi Hunter
Full Day Trip Offshore on January 14, 20262 adults

We boarded the boat at 7am, Pika, the captain, introduced us to his deckhand, Steven. Very nice, polite and helpful guys. We caught AND released a big roosterfish and a 120# sailfish. We had enough bait for both species and the gear was great as well. The guys were very professional, easy to talk to and know these waters. BOOK THEM! You wont be disappointed!

Some days I have the pleasure of taking people out to the ocean for their first time ever. Those trips have been some of the most memorable. I fish with anglers of all skill sets, and often times our goal is catching a personal best, Sailfish, Dorado, Marlin, and other big game fish, as well as inshore species such as Roosterfish and Snook.
