Gavin LokeRepeat angler5.0VerifiedFun and enjoyable fishing trip.
Half Day (AM) Fishing Trip on July 9, 2026 • 2 adultsTried trolling for Mahi Mahi but unfortunately no bites & was told today no boats caught anything. Switched to bottom fishing & caught 15 Red Snapers & 2 Groupers which are great eating. Was told that other boats didn't catch anything, even bottom fishing. I brought my own fishing gear & had years of experience bottom fishing at 180 to 200 ft water, wondered if that made the difference or was it pure luck 😬??
Christopher BauerRepeat angler4.7VerifiedGreat trip in Tamarindo
3/4 Day Fishing Trip on June 29, 2026 • 4 adultsBoat was great for 4 people. plenty of room to fish and get out of ghe sun. Our captain asked us what we wanted to catch and he put us and we caught 3 of the 6 fish we asked to cstch. We caught tuna, grouper and snapper. Wind was moderate and this boat handled it fine for those in my familytgat get seasick. Location was super convenient and we were fishing 15 minutes after we headed out. id recommend this charter.

Half Day (AM) Fishing Trip on December 25, 2025 • 1 adultSuch an awesome Christmas morning outing… Captain Novel was well prepared, the boat was immaculate, and 10 bonitos later - I felt like a champ!! A couple of big ones (for real) got away too!! I highly recommend an adventure with them. Novel even scooped my hat out of the water when it blew off. :)) unrelated to fishing, but worth mentioning is the fresh pineapple was the sweetest most delicious I’ve ever had. Get out and catch a big one!
Rachel RobertsRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat time in Tamarindo!
Half Day (AM) Fishing Trip on June 18, 2026 • 4 adultsNobel and Pablo were great guides for our group. We enjoyed a half day trip with them. We were out right on time and they stayed at it right to the end. Good snacks, good shade available. We caught multiple tuna then hooked a big sail fish right before lines were up.
