A great day had by all!!
Full Day trip – Inshore on November 12, 20252 adults

Oscar and crew took fantastic care of us on our full day offshore fishing trip! They went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. They didn't waste time with rigging that did not catch fish and changed up the baits often. My wife was a bit inexperienced, and Oscar took the extra time to teach her how to properly use the equipment and reel in a fish. We caught two yellow tail tuna and hooked up on a real nice Billfish. On the way back to the marina I mentioned I would love to catch a rooster fish so Oscar spent some extra time trying to make that happen. Although unsuccessful, the effort was extremely appreciated. We would highly recommend Oscar for your next fishing adventure in Costa Rica!

The BEST!
3 Hours inshore fishing on March 6, 20262 adults

These guys were so awesome! We could only do a 4hr trip, so the morning started with catching bait, then we went to go get the big guys- really wish we booked a half day!! We caught a red snapper and a rock bass. We were going to grill them at our air bnb but the crew offered to fry it up FOR us!! We came back for dinner and it was the best food our whole trip by far! They then offered us to go to a rodeo with them afterwards, and that was a whole adventure in itself! So kind and hospitable, cannot recommend enough!! 10/10!!!

Great day with great guide
Half Day Trip – Inshore Fishing AM on March 27, 20264 adults1 child

I would highly recommend and will be going again next time we are in town. We were on fish quick and constantly. The deck hand damian was on top of everything and captain was very kind and knowledgeable. They also allowed for time swimming. Pointed out dolphins sea turtles and of course the big sail fish! Fully stocked cooler no complaints. Made life time memories.

Amazing day!
3/4 Day trip -Offshore on March 24, 20262 adults

The crew were amazing! They worked hard to make sure we had a great day. The captain even jumped in the ocean to untangle my fish from the prop. Three sailfish in 45 minutes, could not have asked for a better experience. We will back with friends and family. Thank you Osmak Fishing!

Half Day Trip – Inshore Fishing AM on March 17, 20262 adults2 children

Captain tried several spots, even took us out further than "inshore" to catch fish. I lost track of how many Mahi Mahi we caught, we kept 6 and released the rest. They were delicious! His crew was great helping us first timers.

Captain Oscar has lived in Quepos since he was 4 years old and was raised by his father Walter Ulate, a fisherman who would leave at dawn in search of means to support the family. At age 10, he went with his father to fish all night on the high seas to chase Barracuda, Snapper, and whatever came out, making his life surrounded by fishermen. His brothers are also experienced anglers who spend a month off the coast. Like many people who are surrounded by this sport, the captain always wants to get ahead and that is why, at the age of 29, he's the owner of Osmak Fishing. What does the name mean? Because they are a united family, each letter represents the initials of his children's and wife's names. Captain Oscar decided to be a captain because the lifestyle of always being by the sea suits him the best.
