I am a marine biologist from the University of Norway with a Masters degree in Sharks. I have always loved fishing since I was young. We had a boat on the fjord and I would go out as much as possible. In fact, I was inspired by Hooper in 'Jaws' to become a marine biologist. I just feel relaxed on the water and am fascinated by marine life.
In 2006 I bought a boat and started charters on the Oslofjord. In 2007 I moved to Costa Rica and my wife and I started Bahia Rica Adventures. We now have 3 boats and run fishing tours as well as other water-based tours.

R Oyoung5.0VerifiedMost fun adventure in Costa Rica
Half Day Trip (AM) • 4 adultsAmazing! We took the half day AM fishing tour and Chato and Stephan exceeded our expectations! We caught a total of over 12 fish in the short period of time from red snapper, to pompano, to mackerel and more, ending with the highlight of a rooster fish that took 20-30 minutes to bring in. Chato and Stephan knew where to go and utilized their technology. Chato is a local and has over 30 years of experience. He frequently kept us informed and considered our objectives. Thank you for a memorable experience!
Response from Charter operatorWe love fishing and taking our clients to enjoy the same. The fishing has been good with many different species and constant action. We are so happy you enjoyed the trip with us and it was a beast of a roosterfish to end the day!
Jody PylesRepeat angler5.0VerifiedA jack of all trades
Half Day Trip (PM) • 2 adultsAs always, had a great fishing trip/time with Captain Thomas and Cato. I only caught two Jacks but one of them was over 35 pounds and took 25 minutes to bring in. Missed four or five from losing bait or missing the poppers/jigs. Alot of action and minimal boat travel to fishing locations. This was my second time with this captain and first mate and there will be a third one in the future.

Response from Charter operatorWe had a blas even thought it was a little rough. We got 2 really big jacks One well over 30lbs and had quite few bites more. 2 big fish also missed the topwater. I look forward to some revenge.

Full Day Trip • 2 adultsMy son (19yo) and I love to fish and have used fishing booker with varied results in the past. Thomas and his mate were experienced, friendly, professional - and most importlantly put us on the fish. Our second fish was a 35-40lb rooster. we caught 30+ fish of varied species. The scenery is stunning, beautiful water, good food, and a comfortable boat. I highly recommend this charter.

Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adultsThomas and his crew managed to orientate our outing in the best way possible, targeting the best places to optimise our chances to encounter the various fish. We managed to catch a lot, got well acquainted with the pelicans, sardines and foaming waters breaking on dark rocks … Wonderful memories in store ! Thank you Vigdis and Thomas

Nice variety on 1/2 day inshore
sep 30, 2026 • Paquera
Super fun day on the water with good action for many different species and good sized fish. Amberjack, yellowtail snapper, african pompano, golden trevally and jacks were on the scoreboard today. All released minus the pompano because it had a hook nick a gill and it kept floating up so it became dinner.

Big tuna!

We went out in search of some offshore action. The billfiish were not present but we found the tunas and had our hands full with a big one that the clients had to tag team. After 1 hr and 15 min we could land this beautiful yellowfin tuna.

We started the day with a massive rooster. Then it totally died down until we found the good spot where we caught lots of good sized jacks, several big rose spotted snappers, 4 moray eels and a few other smaller fish. We had mahis chasing on top but they wouldn't commit.
