Pacific Kayak Fishing 

Ryan was a great guide, extremely knowledgeable fisherman with a true respect for the fish. Ryan was very quick to react when the situation called for it and got me on fish right away, had 3 fish landed within the first 2 hours one of which was a big rooster and then had several other bites throughout the trip. If i come back to costa rica ill be contacting him again and would highly recommend this trip to anyone that wants a true fishing experience.

The weather was not the best on our trip, but the crew did their absolute best to get us into fish! When the waves became too choppy to safely fish from a Kayak, we were allowed to beach fish and we even saw monkeys while we were beach fishing! Definitely recommend these guys.

Kayaking with Ryan is a great experience and a must do on the. fishing bucket list. He did a great job instructing and guiding and is a very helpful cool guy. Totally recommend him and this trip. However something to be aware of that I wish I had know beforehand: fishing Booker says this is in Heredura and Meetup for it's it a beach around 25-40 minutes north off it so it was around 45 minutes to an hour from Jaco... It is a few miles on dirt road not very accessible after the main road.... great beach BUT Ubers and Taxis don't want to go there .... and you will not find transport at 5am to there in CR..... and so if you don't have your own car I highly recommend pre arranging private transportation both To and From this beach or else you will get struck.

Absolutely incredible trip. Ryan put me on the fish and left it up to me to bring home the dinner. It was incredible to actually handle the rod the whole time, unlike deep see fishing were you just get to reel in the fish. I got to do it all. Two remarkable fish in the first hour. Will be back for sure. That was truly fantastic!! PURA VIDA!!

Ryan’s experience pays off, landed a 10 lb Rooster before 6:30am. Hooked up to several big fish including a 18 lb Jack Crevalle, unbelievable fight in the kayak! 10 out of 10 experience, you’re fishing immediately, no long waits/rides and you are as close to the fish as you can get outside of spear fishing.

Ryan provided us with a very enjoyable morning of kayak fishing, with a combination of trolling live bait, casting hard baits and deep jigging. The Hobie kayaks were very stable and well maintained. Ryan was very enthusiastic and gave lots of instruction on techniques to use. He even took videos when we were bringing fish in. I was happy that each kayak was equipped with a sonar - so that each of us could monitor depth, navigate to waypoints and mark fish.

First time for me on a kayak for fishing. Also the first time for me to fish in salt water. It was really fun, the captain was very supportive, the equipment worked nicely and I could get in to it really quick. Cought a nice rooster fish.

This was a great day! It's not every day you get to be guided by a member of the US national kayak fishing team who is a true expert at his craft. Ryan knows what he is doing and he is a good teacher. We caught a bunch of large Jacks and an eel. Need to come back for a rooster thought :)

Trying to find a flyfishing trip on the central coast of Costa Rica proved a difficult challenge. Despite having no experience guiding for flyfishing, Captain Ryan agreed to give it a go. He gave it a good try and given favorable winds and tide it could have been successful. But the weather gods were against us.

Highly recommend! Ryan was very helpful, knowledgeable, and we tried various methods to catch a Rooster.
