Overall

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

Jose and his mate worked there tale off to find the fish and they did. Would definitely book them again and recommend anyone coming to Puerto Jimenez to book this duo.

We did a full day trip offshore, and through the persistence of captain Jose and crew, both my brother and I boated very nice pacific sailfish. The captain extended our 8 hour trip to 10 hours to get the job done. Thank-you Jose!
