Super Exciting Gamefish, average catch around 90- 110 pounds, found in quantity from November-May, but caught frequently year round. You need a picture of yourself with one of these for your desk or home! Always released, but still can be made into mounts just using the picture. Quepos is one of the best places in the world to hook one!

February-April 2011-2012

Billfish season is here! January through April is when all the sailfish and Marlin come out and we are so looking forward to some awesome billfish action! This year we have tons of new tricks in addition to the old ones so we should have some great numbers! In addition to the Top of the line Furuno Sonar, and all new Penn Reels, I just got some High Powered stabilized binoculars. These are the ones that can spot birds at 5-6 miles, and if you shake them, the picture in them doesn't move. They look like something out of a Star Wars Movie and I expect to find lots of birds, floating debris and most importantly FINS! We also installed about 8000 dollars in sound and vibration reducing equipment and this should be our best year yet! We should really start seeing some good Dorado action from October to January, landing quite a few of the big bulls. We'll have the spinning gear ready for those fisherman who are really looking for a crazy fight. For those of you who like pulling up big fish from way down below, the bottom fishing should stay really awesome as well with quite a few Amberjacks and Snapper coming out each trip. With the new gear, we should also be able to spot Yellow Fins from way off, so I expect to be getting quite a bit more Tuna Action! Inshore we now will use a smaller boat with captain Jerry. last year in high season, Jerry really cleaned up the Roosterfish with his largest being 80 pounds and his most released were 11 large ones. In addition, we have quite a few areas that will be great to throw poppers to hit those snappes on top! Inshore should also come with the occasional Jack, Spanish Mackeral and Barracuda bite. High season is finally here, and we are already 50% booked so make sure to reserve your days quick before we fill up!

From hotels to transport, we find you the best places and the best deals. I work here full time searching for the nicest hotels and the lowest prices. Also, Costa Rica is the safest country in Latin America, and with us guiding your vacation, you can experience the very best parts of this amazing country. Costa Rica is more than just pretty beaches and year round summer! After you have been out on the cobalt blue pacific in my 32 foot Ocean Master catching huge fish, you should explore the rest of this country. There is an awesome beach only 5 minutes from the boat dock called Manuel Anotnio beach and it's amazing! Also, there are active volcanoes with hot water parks, cloud forests, ATV rides, zip line tours, white water rafting, and awesome hiking and horseback trails scattered all over this sportsmans paradise. With so much to do, there will never be a dull moment. Even if you can't fish, I love to answer any questions you have at all about the country. I have been to just about everywhere there is to go here, and I'd love to share what I loved. But a bit of warning, after my first trip here, I was hooked, so be careful or we just might become neighbors :)

Costa Rica Fishing
Costa Rica is one of the premier places in the world not only to fish but to vacation. Boasting Several different climate types from cloud forests, volcanoes, and many tropical beaches, there is something for everyone here. On the Pacific side, there are an abundance of Marlin and Sailfish. On the Atlantic side there are tons of Tarpon. We are located and focus on the Marlin Sportfishing on the Pacific side of the country.
Quepos Fishing
Quepos is one of the premier fishing spots in Costa Rica. Located in the dead center of the Pacific coast, it gives us access to fish various fishing grounds, including the same fishing grounds fished by Los Suenos and Dominical. Also protected by two large peninsulas, The water in front of Quepos is also the calmest water in Costa RIca, with wave heights rarely measuring over 3 feet. Great for first time fisherman, or fisherman who don't like to go home with bruises:)
Quepos Sportfishing / Charter Boats
Quepos has a pretty nice charter fleet. There are about 35 charter boats that are fishing in Quepos, about half of those are well maintained with good captains. If you are looking for a smaller or bigger boat, I am friends with almost everybody here and I can give you my discounted "agency" price on any charter boat fishing in Quepos. That price is usually similar to the price I offer the public on personal charter boat (for a simliar sized boat).
Manuel Anotnio Hotels
Quepos is the town that is located next to Manuel Anotnio park and beaches, which are the most sought after beaches in Cosat Rica. Low currents, clear water, great fishing, and cliff dwelling-ocean view hotels make this an unforgettable place to stay. Hotel prices are on par or lower than most average American hotels, but with a much nicer views!
Costa Rica Sportfishing
Costa Rica doesn't have fishing seasons and limits like the US, but that doesn't mean we can kill everything we hook. We release all billfish unless they come in dead (1 per year), that includes releasing both sailfish and Marlin.We are allowed to keep other gamefish though, and finding either a Mahi, Yellow Fin Tuna, Amberjack or Snapper for dinner is almost always a possibility.
About Quepos Fishing Adventures
Unlike most websites in Google, we are not a booking agency. I own and drive the boat, so you are communicating directly with the captain of the trip, not someone upselling a friends boat to make a quick buck. Even if you don't book here, always book directly with the boat owner to get the best prices. Ask the person you talk with if they will be driving the boat. If they say no, they probably don't own it.
