We do fishing charters for Full-day, 3/4-day, and half-day, our fishing excursion starts in the morning at 7:30 am; our Captains and mates have vast experience, and different methods in Deep sea and inshore fishing to put you on fish. Our fishing techniques are Troulling for Sailfish, marlin, mahi-mahi, wahoo and yellowfin tuna; on inshore, we do Rooster fishing, bottom fishing, jigging, bait casting and spinning with light tackle. Also, we do afternoon fishing charters, and can pick you up at your hotel beach starting at 1:00pm, or, earlier if that is possible! You might also bring your own fishing tackle as well!

    Great time

    Full Day Trip • 3 adults

    Captain Genaro and his deck hand Jeremy were fantastic. They totally added to our experience. They spoke great english which is a huge plus for us. The Captain asked what kind of fishing experience we were looking for and we told him that “we wanted each of us (three) to catch any kind of fish to knock catching a fish in Costa Rica off our bucket list. From there we would like to catch some big open water fish.” The captain took us out for about an hour and put us on 5 big Mahi Mahi in the first three hours of us fishing. Not only was the fishing everything we could have asked for, Genaro was very personable and had lots of local knowledge about the fishing and history of Costa Rica. On our trip we also were lucky enough to see humpback whales, sea turtles, dolphins, flying fish, rays, and a few sail fish jumping out of the water. I will definitely book with them again and tell anyone who is looking for a good crew to fish with in Costa Rica to use Papagayo Fishing.

Šta se peca sa Papagayo Fishing – ‘Bahamas Boat’ u Coco

Kako kišna sezona prestaje, ribolov krupne ribe se takođe usporava. I dalje možete uloviti dosta Yellowfin Tuna i Mahi Mahi u dubini, tako da nije sve izgubljeno. I ne zaboravite, priobalni i blizinski ribolov su odlični.
