Tamarindo has a fish with your name on it, so let Pichel Fishing Tour help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Eymhus is prepared to put you on fish.

These waters are known for Amberjack, African Pompano Jack, Mackerel, Jack Crevalle, Roosterfish, Sailfish, Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Blacktip Shark, Cubera Snapper, Dogtooth Tuna, Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna, and more – with any luck, you'll hook into a few! On the day of your trip, you're likely to troll and bottom fish.

You'll be casting lines from a 21' Astillero Chomes panga that holds up to 2 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures.

Before coming aboard, you'll need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

It's never a bad idea to bring sunblock (non-spray), a hat, and sunglasses. Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Unforgettable Day on the Water with Eymhus!
Full Day on July 27, 20262 adults

Our fishing trip with Eymhus was absolutely incredible! From the moment we headed out, he worked hard to get us on the fish and made the entire experience fun and memorable. We caught 2 yellowfin tuna and 2 mahi-mahi, which was beyond what we hoped for! The wildlife made the trip even more special. We saw multiple sea turtles, a dolphin, flying fish, and lots of yellow-bellied sea snake 😳 it felt like a National Geographic adventure. Eymhus was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly knows these waters. Whether you’re an experienced angler or it’s your first time fishing, I highly recommend booking a trip with him! This was one of the highlights of our Costa Rica vacation, and we’d gladly fish with him again. Thank you for an unforgettable day! 🤙🏿

Fantastisk tur fra start til slut!
Half Day Trip (AM) on May 23, 20262 adults

Vi startede med at fange nogle skipjack tun, og senere fik vi et par hug, men derefter blev det lidt stille. Vi prøvede derfor at jigge lidt, og da vi havde omkring 20 minutter tilbage, valgte vi at begynde at trolle igen. Kort efter huggede en yellowfin tun. Selvom tiden egentlig var gået, ville kaptajnen gerne hjælpe mig med at fange en sailfish, så vi fortsatte med at trolle på vej ind mod land. Det endte med, at vi fangede en stor sailfish — en perfekt afslutning på turen! Besætningen var utrolig hjælpsomme, især med at guide min partner og vise hende, hvordan man gjorde. Vi havde begge en helt fantastisk oplevelse og kan varmt anbefale denne chartertur!

Awesome morning with an awesome captain!
Half Day Trip (AM) on August 6, 20262 adults

Had a great day on the water with Eymhus! Even though the fish weren’t biting much, he worked hard to keep us on fish. I got to reel in a blackfin tuna, which was an awesome experience! It was a smaller fish, so we used it as fresh bait to try for something bigger. Fishing is never guaranteed, but Eymhus made the trip fun, was knowledgeable, and put in the effort all day. I’d definitely recommend booking a trip with him!

Way beyond what i had imagined
Half Day Trip (AM) on May 3, 20261 adult

Caught a sailfish right off the bat. Fought another for a while but it came off. Had several others hit including a marlin. Eymhus is awesome and apparently very knowledgeable in the billfish category because that was a lot of action in a short period time. We pretty much sold out on billfish, but slid in for a little jigging action and a battle with a shark to finish the trip. Had a blast fishing with Eymhus's young son too. If i come back to costa rica, my boys are definitely going to be on this trip. I just cant get over what he can accomplish from that little boat. Great work crew! God bless you guys.

Half Day Trip (AM) on April 11, 20262 adults

We were informed in the morning that Capt. Eymus had a boat issue and his brother Henry " the kingfisher" would be taking us out on his boat. Not a problem as Henry showed us a good trip even though the weather was not so good. Henry worked his tail off trying to get fish to bite despite the rouge sea. We could see fish stacked up on the graph at his favorite spot but could not get them to cooperate for us. He changed lures, colors and speed but no luck. We moved to a new area and Henry put on his "lucky" lure and we started catching fish. He showed great determination in getting fish on the line.
