Sport Fishing Herradura welcomes you aboard for a day exploring the area's top spots for some delicious and hard-fighting fish. Captain Randy Delgado builds every trip around what you want to do, making your fun and safety the number one priorities so you can relax and enjoy the fishing.

You will be fishing aboard the Los Cielos, a 31' Aquasport center console. The boat has great all-round fishing space and a covered top to keep off the hot tropical sun. She also has a portable toilet for extra comfort on longer trips, and snorkeling equipment for if you want to spend your time in the water as well as on it.

The Los Cielos is rigged and ready to take on even the fiercest of big game species, with a mix of light and heavy tackle and a ton of great equipment and tech. GPS and fishfinder get you on the best catches, while the boat's outriggers and downriggers let you properly target every habitat and species.

To tempt in the fish, you will be given a livewell full of fresh live bait. The boat also has tuna tubes to let you troll live Bonito and Skipjack and lure in some real prize-worthy sea monsters. On top of this, you will have a range of colorful lures to fill out your spread or change things up.

Half day trips will see you bringing in tasty Snapper and Grouper, as well as some huge Roosterfish, Jacks, and Barracuda for some serious inshore battles. Book in for the whole day, and you can get offshore in search of massive Marlin, huge Sailfish, and a rich variety of other big game pelagics.

No matter what you do, you will be in for an awesome day with an experienced local guide and a great, modern boat. So climb aboard and get ready to make some memories!

Fish on indeed
Full Day Trip - Offshore on June 5, 20264 adults

I've been fishing several times but never had this much success (and fun!) catching fish. Once we got out to depth, we were consistently on fish, sometimes with two reels at the same time. In the end, We caught several mahi mahi, yellowfin tuna, and a couple of trophy sized snappers. One was about 40 lbs and the other was 25 or so. We even hooked a shark that was at least 100 lbs and fought with it for 45 minutes be fore it broke the reel just as we got it right up along side the boat. The captain that day (no Randy) and First mate David worked their tails off and were really cool to talk to. I appreciate them making this our best fishing experience

Reported catch:

Amazing day
Full Day Trip - Offshore on March 4, 20262 adults

We are from Alaska and fish a lot. so coming to Costa Rica this was new. Randy and his Deckhand David got us on fish right away. 2 sailfish hooked but we didnt get them to the boat. Sure was cool to see them jump though. Them we found huge schools of Yellow Fin Tuna. Fish on. Man do they fight. David kept us busy swapping lures to keep the bite going. We are taking home more fish than we ever expected. If we come back to this area again, we will definitley be fishing with Randy again. We had an amazing time.

Memorable and Productive Day on the Water
Half Day Trip (AM) on May 25, 20263 adults

Captain Randy and his crew were friendly, professional and the best at what they do! We had a great time on their clean and comfortable boat! They were determined to make our entire trip successful and fun and they achieved that and then some! They took the utmost care in catching and cleaning the fish and were cautious when releasing the ones we couldn't keep. Lunch was simple and delicious, too! Some of the fish we caught on our 5 hour trip were Mahi Mahi (various sizes), Spanish Mackerel, Sailfish, Black Tuna.

Reported catch:
Spanish Mackerel

ROOOSTER FISH BABY !
Half Day Trip (AM) on May 23, 20261 adult

I was super impressed by the Captain. We had an incredible day. I hired at the night before and explained to him. I wanted to catch some rooster fish. When we got on board, he explained to me what we were going to do and that was our target and we ended up packing our car. It was an incredible time super knowledgeable. I would recommend to anyone they fit me give me beers, water and sandwich sandwiches. It was just a great overall experience. I will definitely be back Captain Randy and his mate.

Sailfish Galore!
Full Day Trip - Offshore on March 25, 20264 adults1 child

Captain Randy and deck hand David worked so hard to get us on the fish. We caught 4 sailfish on our trip. 2 of them were 9 feet long! We chased tuna but it wasnt meant to be that day. Lunch was delicious as well as the snacks. The cooler was well stocked with beer, pop and water. The boat is not huge but it was perfect for our family of 5. As a bonus we saw about 100 dolphins and 5 sea turtles! Overall it was a great experience and I highly recommend Randy and David for your fishing trip.
