Couldn’t have asked for a better time aboard the Good Day with Ben (boat owner). He really loves what he does and it shows when he takes you fishing and you learn all he has to share. We went offshore and hooked up to more than a few sails and even got to tag and name them for research. If that wasn’t enough when we headed in we did a quick inshore troll around a few rocks after giant rooster and hooked up to an even more rare catch, a giant cubera snapper! It’s no wonder he is known world wide and from what I can tell the most popular captain in Quepos maybe Costa Rica!

Captain Benn and his co captain were terrific. It was the first charter of this type for me and my 17 yo son and my buddy and his two boys. Captain Benn was very detailed with all of us on the rigging, how we were going to attract the fish, and what to do once we hooked one. When we first arrived he asked what fish we might be targeting and I said Mahi. Captain Benn cautioned that due to the recent change in water temperature, the weren’t biting that great. Well, being the pro’s that they are, they found a dead tree floating 25 miles off shore and sure enough, the Mahi were there. Between the five of us, we landed nine large Mahi and lost a few others. The whole experience was amazing, but nothing tops the the joy in my son’s face after reeling in a 57 inch bull Mahi Mahi. If you’re going to be in the area definitely book them. I can’t recommend them enough.

We were renting a villa for the week so we wanted to get fish for meals. Ben and Captain Manuel made it happen!!
The fishing was slow but their persistence really paid off!!
We ended up with more filets than our group could possibly eat for the week.
Boat was clean, tackle was top notch and Ben was a pleasure to fish with.
Highly recommend the Good Day charter!

I cannot express enough how fantastic this fishing trip experience was for us!  Ben and Manuel were both amazing!  Anyone that has anxiety or fears of going miles out fishing, I promise this pair will make you feel at ease.  We had an amazing time, caught a lot of fish.  This is definitely not like our Florida fishing!  It is entirely different experience.  I would highly recommend Jackpot Sport Fishing to anyone out there looking to book a charter! Hands down, one of the best times, best experiences of our lives!

We fished with our six year old twins. Benn and Manuel were great. They engaged adults and kids, we caught a few roosters, and we all had fun. They are serious fisherman and made the kids feel like part of the crew.
