What an incredible day on the water. This trip exceeded all of my expectations and I got everything I could have asked for out of it. My goal coming into the trip was to catch a tuna on the fly and hopefully get a shot at a sailfish, and we were able to make both happen. Catching a tuna on the fly and raising multiple sailfish made for a truly unforgettable experience. The captain and crew worked hard all day and did an outstanding job putting us on fish. They were professional, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. You could tell they were just as excited about our success as we were. From start to finish, everything was top-notch. If I ever make it back to Quepos, this will be my first call for another day on the water.
Thank you so much for the great review Breaden and we arw so pleased that you had a great day and got that Tuna on the Fly you were looking for!! Thanks again for fishing with us! Benn
What an amazing day with Jackpot Sport Fishing! Captain Manuel and his mate, Pepe, were fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and had us catching fish within minutes of getting our lines in the water. We caught tons of fish, enjoyed great music, and had an absolute blast the entire trip. A huge bonus was being able to take mahi to a marina restaurant they recommended and have it prepared fresh. Owner Benn was also great—very personable, communicative, and easy to work with. Overall, one of the best fishing trips we've ever been on. Highly recommend Jackpot Sport Fishing!
Thank you so much for fishing with us Corrina and for the wonderful review. We are so pleased that you both enjoyed and hope to see you again soon! All the Best, Benn
Really good experience with Captain and deckhand. Boat and equipment were top notch. Even in a slow season, we were able to hook a few good size fish. A diverse supply of Bonita, Mahi, Snapper, and Grouper. Very family friendly, as everyone caught at least one fish, so kiddos were happy and that's what matters the most. We'll try to make it back for better fishing in the future.
We booked a 1/2 day offshore as the weather was not looking great. Met the Captain at the Marina and we were off exactly on time. The first mate, Jackson was very helpful with my 10yoa son . We danced around storms all day but were still able to catch several Mahi and Tuna. Great Experience!!
Great to have you both aboard Mickey! Thank you for fishing with us & for the great review!
The crew worked there tales off and we caught fish all day!! Unbelievable experience and a great time had by all! Pepe and Manual are top notch! Even had a great lunch and everything was exactly as described! would recommend to anyone!
Hi Matthew Thank you so much for fishing with us and really appreciate the great review. We're so pleased that everyone had a blast! Hope to see you again soon. All the best Benn
