I wanted to live the offshore fishing experience with my 9 and 11 yo boys. Everything, but everything was perfect… weather, music, captain and assistant smile and skills, the fruits, the beverages, the snacks, the lunch, dolphins, turtles, birds and of course fish. Around 15 catches, 4 different spiecies, around 3 kg of meat that we’ve braught back to the hôtel for the chef to cook for us :) We’ve even caught 3 fish at the same time… no kidding! Oh, Even the Price is good ;) Mucho Gracias Hermanos!

We met Captain Melvin and Cheetah Man in the morning and they were very professional. We soon motored off and picked up some sardines and we were off to the races. We opted for offshore fishing and the captain recommended Tuna. We were down!
We went 30 miles out and saw incredible marine creatures. We saw a shark breach several times and literally hundreds of spinner dolphins swimming in schools, jumping, frolicking and doing crazy spins. Captain Melvin found a fishing spot we hooked an 80 lb tuna in 5 min! Then we fought it for an hour. We had sashimi boat side while we saw whales breaching nearby. We continued on and caught after several attempts landed another 60 lb tuba. It was absolutely incredible. Splash in some swimming and drinking and it was a perfect day.

It was a wet and rainy day which we knew could be a possibility. That’s what you sign up for when you go fishing. But Wahoo didn’t disappoint. The captain and deck hand were knowledgeable, courteous, and great hosts always offering food and drinks. And they delivered on the fish! My 12-year old son and I both caught larger sail fish - a first for both of us! And they both hit at the same time which was a unique experience. Such a great trip!

We had lots of fun fishing inshore! We booked a half day trip and we ran out of bait we had so much action. Caught multiple species including Jack, rainbow, blue runner, red snapper and big eye jack. Definitely recommend! We sure wish we booked a full day, as it was incredible! The captain was lighthearted, easy going and knew where all the action was. We easily caught 15-20 inshore fish in the matter of 2 hours. Overall, an awesome trip!

I had a great, fun time with Captain Melvin, aka Tony.  Took along my 10wt and some flies I hoped would work.  “This fly will hook a fish on first cast,” he said, and it happened.  Tony worked previously with a strictly fly only fisherman, so his “good cast” was informed praise.  He doesn’t carry his own fly tackle, but knows how to help a fly guy catch fish in his territory .  We also caught fish on chunk bait (big, very strong jacks) after other fish had broken off the best flies (we learned a lot, quickly), then rounded out the morning fly casting again, this time to monster milkfish—they didn’t like my fly, but just seeing them busting on top was a treat.  Tony is friendly, flexible, knows the water and where to find fish based on 10 years’ experience fishing out of Quepos.  Boat is clean and comfortable.  Captain always happy, encouraging, upbeat. English pretty good— gaps bridged with smiles and love of fishing.
