Herradura, PU, Costa Rica

Sportfishing on the Predator is your ticket to a memorable angling experience in Costa Rica! Located at the world-famous Los Sueños Marina in Herradura, the Predator and its bilingual crew will show you where to find the best fishing spots around.

The boat is a 28’ Shamrock Express that runs on a single 275 HP Cummins engine. It has the necessary safety gear and navigation electronics to ensure you have a safe and productive day on the water. There’s room on the boat for up to 4 anglers, so be sure to bring some friends along for the ride.

The available trip options will allow you to enjoy the amazing fishing accessible from Herradura Bay. This will usually start with targeting Roosterfish inshore, and then moving further out after Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Tuna, and even the area’s most sought-after game fish, the Blue Marlin.

If this isn’t enough, you can also try bottom fishing for tasty Snapper, Grouper, and anything else you might find in the deep waters.

All the necessary rods, reels, and terminal tackle will come included in the price of any given trip. With snacks and drinks also included on board, this is the place to come to enjoy an all-inclusive sportfishing vacation in the sun!

Join Sportfishing on the Predator and experience fishing in some of the most beautiful waters off the coast of Costa Rica!

Awesome day with friends and Sail's

VERIFIED

Had the best day on the Predator! No one was finding any Mahi or Tuna this week which was a disappointment. The Sail Fish decided to show up and out for us! We started with one right as they put the rods in the water. Then came another followed by a double with only one making it to the boat. We caught a total of 10 with 8 making it to the boat and two sets of doubles. Do not let the size of this boat stop you from booking! We had the best trip today on this boat the captain and mate worked hard for us today and we so appreciated the chance to catch the magnificent Sails that we did. Give Predator a try for your next fishing adventure!

Deb and I had an amazing day on the water! Captain Chris kept us hooked on fish, landing 13 sailfish by noon. Our mate Umberto was excellent, and the team constantly switched up the chuggers to keep the fish up. We had non-stop action with three doubles and two triples, missing only one fish on a triple. In between, we managed quick snacks of pineapple, melon, and sandwiches before getting back to fishing. The day ended with some relaxing bottom fishing, and we quickly caught our dinner. It was chaotic, yet paradise!
