Here is the email John sent us after the trip:
Hi Craig!
Finally back in country and wanted to thank you for a great trip.
My wife and her friend Mary had never caught a billfish and on the Wanderer, caught four each in two days including a double hook-up. They were thrilled and will be talking about that for a long time.
I caught a nice 38 pound rooster and my friend Jim caught a nice Cuberra snapper while fishing the last two days with Captain Carlos on the Discoverer. Although we only fished a half day on our last day, our group total for the four days of fishing came to 13 sails, 6 tuna, 1 rooster and 1 snapper.
You guys have an excellent operation and we had an awesome trip! Your staff are incredible at their jobs and your facility offers world class fishing! It was great to get to spend a little time with you and we are really appreciative of an awesome trip. Will continue to spread the word (and pictures).
Pura Vida!

On December 22, Jacksonville angler Randy Reep nagged a bucket-list caliber Rooster Fish release with Captain Carlos on the Discoverer.
The resilient Ed Parker had to wait out a freak wind storm in mid-December. On his rescheduled trip Captain David hunted down this excellent Rooster Fish release.
Great work by the switchblade Adventurer.
The Adventurer has been on a tear in the first month of the season, and Captain David’s performance on the 21st was truly exceptional.
The 23-foot inshore assassin has released only a few Sailfish in her 8 year career. To add to the scorecard was this epic Rooster Fish.
For the dinner table they scored a nice Dorado.
Proof again that you don’t need a big boat to catch big fish in Costa Rica.
Captain Fico stayed inshore today with angler Moses Homer reporting an excellent Rooster Fish release. They backed up that catch with a football-sized Yellowfin Tuna for the dinner table.
The Adventurer led the pack on the 18th with a crazy day of action that included BIG Dorados and Yellowfin Tunas.
They even scored a Rooster fish release at the end of the trip.
Amazing action by the very busy Captain David.
The Discoverer scored this beautiful Rooster Fish release on August 26 with angler Keith McMahon.
For the dinner table they nagged this Cubera Snapper and a Yellowfin Tuna.
