    3 great Sailfish! Bucket list trip!

    Full Day Trip • 2 adults

    I brought my dad down to Costa Rica to go after his first billfish. We booked 2 full day trips with different captains in January which is supposed to be great fishing. On our first day out with a different boat, we spent 9 hours on the water and didn't have a single bite...never touched the pole. The Dreamworks Crew worked tirelessly to put us on the fish and it was a really special moment for us getting to see my dad reel in a 90 inch sailfish. Not 5 minutes later, we had another good sized sail on the line which I got to fight to the boat. And another my dad and I teamed up on about 30 minutes later. What a great experience! We had an absolute blast and Nono, David and Bernie went out of their way to ensure we not just caught fish but had a great experience on the boat. Highly recommend the trip, the boat and the crew!

    Fantastic Boat & Crew

    Full Day Trip • 4 adults

    This was our last fishing trip we made on our vacation to Los Suenos and I knew this boat would deliver. The guys on the DreamWork were not only fun to fish with, but they made it look easy! It is a single screw boat (1 engine) which is great for raising billfish cause it has a clean propwash. We went 3/4 on Sailfish and got a bonus Dorado. My dad, gf, and I could not have asked for a better trip! Highly recommend the Dream Work and next time we are at Los Suenos we will be fishing with them again!

    Magnificent Crew and Captain

    Full Day Trip • 2 adults

    Came out for Sailfish, fishing was slow for all the boats as we were offseason and overheated Super Nino waters Crew worked their ass off, constantly checking/changing baits, Captain had us on the fish, ended up with a 90+ in sailfish and some Mahi Mahi highly recommend

    Great day of fishing!

    Full Day Trip • 4 adults

    Had a great day with Capt. "No No" and crew on the Dreamwork. Raised 18 sailfish and release 12 when other boats were slow! The capt. and mates worked hard all day for the fish. Excellent execution. Big Plus++ not only were they good at finding the fish, they were super friendly and fun to hang out with like old good friends. Definitely recommend them.

    Thanks for the kind words Marc! We look forward to fishing with you again at Dreamwork Sportfishing!

    4 sailfish & 2 mahis

    Full Day Trip • 6 adults

    Our trip was outstanding. Went with my son and grandson - first time. We were lucky in two respects. First we caught 4 sailfish ( atch and release) and 2 mahis made dinner for 5 adults for 3 nights. Second we happened on a wonderful crew David, Bernie and Capt B. The crew went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and help us with the fish. Highly recommended

    The DreamWorks boat is top notch and the crew amazing. We went out on a very slow day. They kept after it and we finally landed a 100” sail in the last 30 min of the day. Only negative I can say is the boat says it has AC but it doesn’t. We brought wives that weren’t thrilled about that. Other than that it was great.

    The crew were great! The equipment was very good. But for the price paid, I was not too happy. We caught one sailfish, but thats not why I was unimpressed. For paying $1800 for a 5 hour trip, I expected to have a better experience. They did not discuss what fish we wanted to go for, they just assumed we wanted sailfish and took us accordingly. The boat was nice, but I saw much nicer boats around that I think charged less. Plus with that price and the owner puts a sign on the boat that most of the crew’s pay comes from tips and 20% is standard… pay your staff more and dont make us feel guilty. We paid a lot for the trip, so pay the crew who make the experience happen.

    Had a blast with the crew of Dream Work. Arms are tired. Captain Nono, David, and Bernie are the absolute BEST at raising billfish!! Great preparation and teamwork — and a passion for fishing —- makes this charter truly special. Thanks for a great couple days on the water.

What's biting with DreamWork Sportfishing in Jaco

The rainy season is finally over, and Billfish fishing gets serious once again. Look for Blue and Black Marlin as well as Costa Rica's specialty – the Sailfish in the deep waters of the Pacific.
