Captain
José Miranda

Member since August 2019 Puerto Jiménez, Costa Rica

Background: Jose has over 15 years of experience fishing the local waters. Two years ago he decided to turn his hobby into a profession and start guiding trips and showing guests how beautiful and rewarding of an experience the local fishing grounds can provide. Jose speaks very basic English, but when he has English-speaking customers he hires a guide that speaks English fluently. The favorite part of his job is seeing customers get the fish they’ve been targeting for a long time.
Techniques: Trolling, casting, jigging, anchoring. We use live bait and a variety of lures.

All day fishing

Apr 5, 2025 Puerto Jiménez

My friend was very happy because it was his first yellowfin tuna, a large tuna with a lot of strength, but we managed to get it out.

A full day of fishing

Apr 5, 2025 Puerto Jiménez

Kasey and her husband are happy enjoying a delicious suchimi, carpacho, with the yellowfin tuna that her husband caught, and she was very happy because she had a large and beautiful roosterfish caught as a catch.

6 Hour Trip (Medio Dia)

Extremely Personable and Salt of the Earth

VERIFIED

Extreme wealth of knowledge obviously goes without saying. What stood out the most was the hospitality and simple kindness. Captain Miranda and his 1st mate could not do enough to make this a special day including the food and beverages they brought. Captain Miranda spoke very, very little English and I speak no Spanish. But we made it work and had an absolute blast. He put us on my bucket list fish (Rooster). He even sat time aside to allow me to use some of my own equipment. Great guy, great... More

Our trip fishing with these guys was absolutely first class from start to finish. The Captain and mate Eric were friendly and accomodating and truly knew fishing. Commucation from start to finish was key in the organization of this great trip. The boar is spotless clean in perfect condition and very well stocked. We fished for Mahi being one of the best times in December and the guys did not dissapoint. We caught 11 mahis and had a very large tuna throw the hook... More

Best fishing trip ever! Captain Jose was outstanding! He put us on the fish we wanted to catch and was very helpful throughout the trip. If you want to fish in the area Captain Jose is the one to use.
