Atrapasueños Sportfishing Costa Rica 

Make some memories in Quepos and go fishing with Atrapasueños Sportfishing. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Butch knows them forwards and back.

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Mahi Mahi, Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Striped Marlin, Roosterfish, Sailfish, Cubera Snapper, Snook, Yellowfin Tuna, and anything else that bites. You’ll target your catch by spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Butch also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.

If you’re traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board.

Your fishing machine for the day is a 30’ offshore sport fishing vessel that can carry up to 5 passengers. It has outriggers and all the essentials. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Butch will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 10–20% tip is customary.

You will need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks provided on board.

Now, come aboard with Atrapasueños Sportfishing and get hooked!
