Best Trip Ever!!
9 Hour Trip – Inshore Fishing on June 6, 20262 adults

We had an amazing day fishing with Noah. My boyfriend's goal was to catch a roosterfish, and he came so close! Even though it got away, the day was a huge success. He caught several mahi mahi, and being able to take some back and cook it was one of the highlights of our trip. Noah knew exactly where to go, kept us on fish, and made the whole experience fun and enjoyable. The day itself was beautiful. Noah provided drinks, a delicious lunch, and fresh pineapple, and we even got to jump in the water for a bit. It was the perfect mix of fishing, relaxing, and enjoying being on the water in Costa Rica. When we make it back to Costa Rica to try for that roosterfish again, we'll definitely be booking with Noah. Highly recommend!

Small boat, HUGE adventure
5 Hour Trip – Inshore Fishing (AM) on January 22, 20261 adult

Captain Noah and First Mate Charlie are the best of the best. While the boat is small and can only accommodate two anglers comfortably, what the boat lacks in size Charlie and Noah more than make up for in their knowledge and work ethic. We trolled nearly 34 miles on an inshore charter, using live sardines and rapala lures. Within the first 5 minutes we boated our first of FIVE Rooster fish caught on the morning, including THREE ROOSERS AT ONE TIME, with Captain, Charlie, and myself all fighting fish simultaneously. What an unbelievable experience. In all, we also landed Spanish mackerel, Jack Crevalle, and needlefish, with a total catch of 12 for the morning. One of the finer experiences I have had on the water.

Noah and his crew take your fishing experience to the next level! Communication is there from day of booking until you get to the boat. Noah and the crew cater to your desires and really makes it a personalized fishing experience. Provided drinks and snacks throughout our 5 hour trip and took us to multiple fishing spots. Was patient and friendly when teaching us the fundamentals. We caught a barracuda and they made fresh sashimi right on the boat while we were still fishing. Unforgettable experience in Costa Rica and can't wait to visit Captain Noah again.

All I can say is wow!
5 Hour Trip – Inshore Fishing (AM) on January 14, 20262 adults

This was our first ocean fishing experience and it was incredible. If your looking for the most affordable option for a couple or small group this is it! our captain did a great job putting us on the fish. We caught 2 Rooster fish, a needle fish, a red snapper, and a snook! I could tell the effort they put in was above and beyond based in seeing other boats. they cleaned our catches wonderfully. Drinks and snacks were included as well. I would recommend Noah and tbis charter to anyone I see!

Reported catch:

Red Snapper

5 Hour Trip – Inshore Fishing (AM) on May 16, 20262 adults

my wife and i went on a charter with noah and charlie from fish happens and had an awesome time! very kind and helpful captain and first mate and seemed like they enjoyed the trip as much as we did. they provided food, drinks, fruit and even some beers. we caught a bunch of fish and went straight from the boat to a restaraunt at the drop off point and had the best fish tacos ive ever had with the fish we had just caught. Great trip would do it again 🤙
