Join Captain Jason “Butterfly” Coffin and first mate Jorge for an unforgettable fishing adventure off Costa Rica’s Pacific coast with Mr. Trigger Big Game Fishing!

Capt. Coffin knows the waters around Flamingo and Tamarindo exceptionally well. During 11 years of guiding in the region, he earned an impressive reputation as a big game specialist, including three offshore world records - two Sailfish and one Marlin - as well as an exceptional Roosterfish catch.

After retiring from guiding in 2017, he continued to expand his experience around the world, fishing in Hawaii, Fiji, and the Bahamas and learning from some of the sport’s most respected captains. Among his most meaningful partnerships was his friendship and mentorship with the late Capt. Bart Miller of Black Bart Lures, with whom he even won a marlin tournament.

Now back in Costa Rica, Capt. Coffin brings decades of experience, international knowledge, and a genuine passion for fishing to Mr. Trigger Big Game Fishing. Depending on the season and conditions, you can target Marlin, Sailfish, Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, Roosterfish, Amberjack, and other exciting Pacific species.

You'll fish fully equipped for offshore and inshore fishing with quality rods, reels, tackle, navigation and safety equipment. The boat accommodates up to 4 anglers and is operated by an experienced crew who know these fishing grounds inside out.

Fishing gear, tackle, and bait are provided. We recommend bringing sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat, comfortable clothing, non-slip shoes, a camera, and any snacks or drinks you'd like for the trip. A light change of clothes is also a good idea!

Come aboard and let Capt. Coffin and Jorge put you on the fish!
We can’t wait to take you fishing!

Captain Jason 'Butterfly' Coffrin is no stranger to the waters of Flamingo and Carrillo, Costa Rica. After spending 11 years guiding in the region before retiring in 2017, he continued to expand his expertise across the globe, fishing the Pacific waters of Hawaii alongside Capt. Russel Tanaka of Magic Sportfishing, exploring Fiji with Capt. Mike Hennessey, and fishing the Bahamian islands aboard multiple vessels. With three offshore world records to his name—including two sailfish and one marlin—as well as an unofficial 157 lb roosterfish and two marlin weighing over 500 lb, one blue and one black, Capt. Coffrin has established a strong reputation as a big-game fishing expert. His achievements also include releasing 65 blue marlin, 17 black marlin, 39 striped marlin, and over 1,000 sailfish. He also released three IGFA billfish in the Royal Slam, achieving the fastest time ever recorded. Among his most meaningful experiences was his friendship and mentorship with the late Capt. Bart Miller of Black Bart Lures. Together, they fished the Bahamas and West Palm Beach and won Capt. Miller's final marlin tournament. From casual bass trips to conversations over burgers and beers, Capt. Coffrin gained valuable knowledge that continues to shape his approach to fishing. His experience has also been featured in Fish Monster Magazine for four years, as well as on Got Fish Got Rum Radio and NBC Sports Radio. Now back in Costa Rica, Capt. Coffrin brings his passion, knowledge, and dedication to Mr. Trigger Sportfishing. Alongside first mate Jorge, he looks forward to sharing his expertise and creating memorable fishing experiences for every guest. Mr. Trigger Big Game — Can't Wait to Take You Fishing!
