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.

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.

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!

Of all the fishing excursions I have done this was a top notch experience, best value for the money. Eyhmus and Juan were extremely knowledgeable and made the day so fun! We caught about a dozen fish; yellow fin tunas and a yellow fin snapper. We also saw many schools of dolphins and sea turtles. A truly magical experience and day, thank you! We will be back!

It was a great trip with the Captain Eymhus and his mate Juan - we caught 3 fish and almost a large sailfish. They work very hard to make the experience successful, tirelessly chasing the action. Captain gave us extra time on our way back to test out more shallow waters to see if we can catch anything else. Recommend for anyone who wants a very hands on fishing experience!

We had a great time! We caught 4 fish and ended up keeping 2 fish: a tuna and a rainbow runner (the two other were very high in mercury). The captain was super knowledgeable and very entertaining. Would definitely recommend gravel to anyone that is not used to boating out in the sea as the sea sickness can hit you hard! Thanks again :)
