    Pablo knows

    5 hours Sierpe estuary Trip • 1 adult

    I tried to snag a rooster on fly heavy. They were there but it just wasn’t my day. We ended with catching some snapper to eat for couple days. I’m a fishing captain in South Carolina and I would recommend this charter.

    Thanks for fishing with me and for take time to wrote a review. Was very existing to watch those roosters chasing mullet fish just next to the boat. I'm sure next time you will catch them.

    Sierpe-Fishing was an awesome fishing charter. Going into the ocean from the river was a unique experience. We caught 5 tuna’s, 2 wahoo’s, and 1 barracuda. We also got to see several whales while fishing around Cano Island. Thank you Pablo for the great experience. Would definitely recommend this charter..

    8 hour trip with Captain Pablo from Sierpe Fishing

    Nearshore Fishing (MAX 4) • 3 adults

    We travel to Costa Rica once a year. Every time we go I must go fishing at least once if not more. I am a Captain from the United States so I have certain expectations when I hire a charter. Captain Pablo from Sierpe Fishing came through with flying colors. I requested to jig fish and then try popping. Captain Pablo hade great equipment (which isn’t always common in Costa Rica) all Shimano rods and reels. With an impressive selection of jigs and poppers. After the beautiful ride down the Sierpe river, we reached the ocean. Our trip started off slow, as the jig bite wasn’t too hot. I did manage an African Pompono. With the tide fading, he switched us up to a troll for a little while with smaller diving swimmers. Within about 15 seconds we had our first yellowfin tuna. We ended up with 5 in the boat and releasing 3 before switching over to popping. We went around Caño Island and found some birds working. My crew of three all casted our plugs out and had tuna almost immediately. We played with them for a while before taking a break to try another jigging spot. All in all, our experience was awesome and I would recommend it to all.

    Response from Captain

    Thanks Jeremy, I really enjoyed fishing with all of you. Looking foward to fish with you again next year. Regards

    A day to always remember with Captain Pablo.

    I can't say enough about our trip with Sierpe Fishing. Captian Pablo is a true sportsman. His vast knowledge of fishing, boatsmanship, and the waters of Costa Rica is astounding!! Top notch equipment. Multiple fishing styles from trolling, to casting and jigging. Catching a variety of species was remarkable. Can't wait to return for another amazing adventure with Captain Pablo.

    Response from Captain

    Dear Michael, thanks for the review. For me was a pleasure fish with you and your wife. Hope to fish with you in the future again Very best
