I left my life in the United States and moved here to chase trophy fish — and that’s exactly how I run my charters, with that same passion behind every trip. I’m not the cheapest boat, and that’s intentional. You’re paying for quality gear, an experienced crew, and a captain who’s willing to run to where the fish are. If the bite isn’t happening, we move. My goal isn’t to save fuel — it’s to get you on trophy fish and give you a real fishing day.

I take a lot of pride in the way I run my trips — quality gear, a solid crew, and the freedom to run where the fish are. We run good equipment, keep our gear dialed in, and we’re not afraid to burn fuel to find fish. I’m not here to sit in one spot and hope. I’m here to hunt fish.

Every trip is different, but the standard stays the same: we fish hard and we give you a real shot at quality fish — not excuses.

Whether you want to stay close to shore or get far offshore, every trip is run with the same mindset: fish hard, fish smart, and don’t cut corners.

3/4 Day Offshore on June 11, 20254 adults
We had an amazing time with Josh and Dani today. Had to make a hard run to get to the tuna but had a fantastic day. These guys were prepared, experienced, a lot of fun and extremely kind and patient with my 3 teenage kids. I was very impressed with the preparation and effort and beyond pleased with the results. Highly recommend these guys. And the absence of any language barrier is a bonus. Can't complain about Spanish in Costa Rica but English speaking captain and mate makes things so much easier.

Great captain and mate!
HALF DAY BILLFISH (PM) on May 18, 20254 adults
It was a tough day on the water, but Josh and his mate worked their asses off to find fish, but the fish just didn't want to cooperate. I did the 4 hours trip, so there really wasn't a lot of time to troll, and it appeared other charters had a slow day too. They did drop a jig before we left the reef and we were able to pull up a bonito. I've fished my whole life and been on a lot of charters. The lack of fish wasn't from a lack of trying. It just wasn't our day. Captain and crew were great!
