About
A sportfishing charter out of the Puerto Jiménez public dock run by Chris, who is named in nearly every review — for putting guests on fish, patiently coaching first-timers through big-fish tackle, and answering a barrage of pre-trip questions. Guests report inshore days on the gulf and offshore runs landing sailfish, tuna and mahi-mahi, with fresh sandwiches and cold drinks included. The boat is described as spotless and well equipped, with gear in good, if not brand-new, condition. Complete novices have called it the best day of their Costa Rica trip, and some clients return across multiple years to fish with him again.

My wife and I had a great day fishing offshore with Chris. He is a very experienced fisherman and a very competent captain. Neither my wife or I had fished for fish of this size before and he made sure that we were comfortable with the tackle and how to use it. Fresh sandwiches and cold drinks were provided and he went the extra mile to try and find us some different fish to the ones we had already caught. Would thoroughly recommend him.
I went on an inshore fishing tour with Chris. He performed perfectly and we managed to hook up with some really nice fish. Chris took perfect care of us with nice drinks and sandwiches. The boat is great and well equipped with everything you need. Also the tackle is okay, not the newest stuff but everything is in good condition. Would definitely recommend going with him 😊 Thank you for the amazing trip Chris!
This was the best day in our trip to Costa Rica and not something we have ever done before or had planned on doing. I spoke with other tourists who said the fishing was good and thought we would try to find someone who would happily take novices. We had a fabulous day fishing with Chris who took great care of us. Caught loads of huge fish: sailfish, tuna, mahi-mahi. Couldn’t have asked for a better day out. Have told all my friends and wish it was easier to get to PJ again in the future as I’d love to go again. Defiantly recommend.
