Pichel Fishing Tour
Pichel Fishing Tour
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.

Famous Eymhus!!
If you're looking for an unforgettable fishing trip, go with Captain Eymhus — seriously. My girlfriend and I went out with him from 11–5, and it was the highlight of our trip. We trolled and jigged our way to three yellowfin tunas and a massive amberjack, and the whole experience was nonstop excitement. Eymhus isn't just a great captain — he's the kind of guy who makes you feel like you're fishing with an old friend. Super knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about what he does. We learned a ton, laughed a lot, and made memories we'll never forget

Authentic Costa Rican Fishing Adventure
Absolutely unforgettable fishing experience with Eyhmus with Pachel Fishing Tours. My son and I had the privilege of joining an authentic fishing charter that exceeded our expectations. The staff were incredibly sincere, hardworking, and passionate about what they do. They went above and beyond to ensure we landed a variety of fish. Their knowledge of the waters, fish behavior, and fishing techniques was impressive. They worked tirelessly to help us reel in some nice catches. They also took the time to teach us new skills and offered words of encouragement. Another area that made this trip special was the way the crew shared their love for the local culture, stories, and science giving us a deeper appreciation for the waters we were fishing. The memories made on this trip will last a lifetime, and we couldn't recommend Eyhmus more highly. If you're looking for an authentic, action-packed fishing adventure that also immerses you in local culture and science, look no further.

Great trip
We had an absolutely amazing time on this fishing charter in Costa Rica! From start to finish, the experience was top-notch. The captain was incredibly patient and kind, especially with our young children. One of our kids asked what felt like 10,000 questions, and the captain answered every single one with enthusiasm and care. It was clear he's a father himself – he took the time to explain everything in a way that made it fun and educational. We were lucky enough to hook a huge sailfish and also caught several tuna, mahi-mahi, and jacks. The action was non-stop and thrilling for all of us! The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable – and we always felt safe and well taken care of. This was more than just a fishing trip – it was a memory our family will treasure forever. Highly recommend this charter, especially for families with kids. We can't wait to come back!

My husband and I visited Costa Rica for our honeymoon and he really wanted a fishing excursion so I was so excited to find Pichel! Eymhus was so much fun and we caught so many fish. He definitely knew how to get us on the fish. I would recommend booking with Pichel over booking any large fishing excursions, as the locals really know best!! 10/10 will be booking again when we're back in Tamarindo. You won't regret it!
