Jennifer Heinz-zahnerMaryland, US•Member since 20264.7VerifiedWonderful Day on the Pacific
Full Day • 4 adultsOur family of four had a wonderful day on the water. We didn’t catch any fish while trolling, but neither did other boats in the area. The two mates really put in the effort while trolling, by trying endless lures and fresh bait. The fish just weren’t biting. We requested to use our last 1-2 hours to bottom fish. That’s when the action began! We landed numerous Grouper, 2 beautiful Snapper, and others. The only glitch was the requested gluten free lunch of chicken and rice, turned into sandwiches. The person in our group with Celiac made a lettuce and turkey wrap. So it all worked out in the end.

Full Day • 2 adultsMy husband and I are avid angles off the West Coast of British Columbia and Washington State. Fishing in Costa Rica was nothing short of hot!!! Weather and fishing wise. Our First Mate Bryan worked his butt off getting us on the fish. He didn't give up!! He continously checked to make sure we were dragging bait and when fishing turned off he changed things up trying different lures. Captain Hansel put in a shift too. It had to be over 35 degrees the day we went out and both Captain and First Mate kept up the same energy for bringing to end of the Charter. We will have some new fish tails to tell when we get home.

¾ day Offshore • 5 adultsWe had a great trip aboard Papi Chulo with Captain Hansel and crew. Everyone in our group caught fish. First mate Daniel made superb ceviche (the best we’ve ever tasted!) from the catch and we still had plenty to take home for dinner. We’d definitely recommend this boat and crew!
