Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM) on July 4, 20243 adults
Amber, at Amberjack Tours, is super easy to deal with and accommodating. Willy was a great boat captain with tons of local knowledge. Three sailfish within the first hour, including an unheard of double, was more than anyone could ask for. If English is important Amberjack Tours is a great option.

Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM) on August 13, 20242 adults
Nice crew. Nice equipment. Live bait. Didn't taget tuna or rooster or Jacks. Bottom fished first in very deep water (250+ft) w/ 22 oz sinkers. A tug and then a strenuous 5-7minute reel up (the groupers give up after about 2 seconds) then it's just a chore getting them up. Trawled for the last 90 min. Caught 2 needle fish (about the weakest fighitng fish ever). Boats all around us were on the tuna bite. Nice grouper/tile fish meal after.
Reported Catch:
Red Grouper

John - Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're glad to hear you found our crew, equipment, and the live bait to your liking, and that you enjoyed a nice meal of grouper and tilefish afterward. We're sorry to hear that the trip didn't meet your expectations in terms of the species you caught. The decision to bottom fish in deeper waters and the timing of our trolling efforts are often influenced by a variety of factors, including length of the trip you booked, weather conditions and the behavior of the fish on any given day. However, we understand that targeting specific species is important, and we'll be sure to take your feedback into account as we plan future trips. Tight lines, Amber Mesfin (partner/founder) Amberjack Tours Costa Rica
