Any recommendation for Costa Rica Charter boats? Any feedback? Results?

Lookin to go to Costa Rica in Januarary and I am trying to get some direction on who to use or not use. There are so many boast to use! I want to fish on the west side for billfish for two day and then go inshore for two days. Thanks for the info

I highly recomend my good friend Dave Dobbins:

If he aint availble, Captain Tucker, don't know what boat he is running this year, but we fished with him a couple years ago on the top gun.

both out of quepos.

I fished last Dec with costaricasportfishing. He is a member of this site. I had the best trip of my life (ask him)!! His name is Dave and is based out of Los Suenos. Send him a PM with your dates and info.

He will also help you find the best places to eat and get into trouble if you like! Good Luck

I will second Capt. Dave on the Miss behavin (Costaricasportfishing on this site) I have been with him 2 years in a row, and it is a cool laid back approach, Tucker does a hell of a job too, he is out of Los Suenos now.

quepos- i would def recomend dave on la manta. one thing that is cool with him is he lets you fish how you want.. this year we wanted to try some bottom fishing( dropping live baits down to a rock pile... can hook many different kinds of snapper, aj's, and blue or black marlin.)and he was totally cool with it. dave is setup for any kind of fishing you can think of.. from trolling, fly fishing, bottom fishing, tuna fishing, snook fishing etc... brad and i have been fishing with dave for the last 5 years. great captain.

los suenos- i would recomend cpt. tucker.. not sure what boat he is running but i thinks it starts out with "dream". also a good captain.

hope this helps... good luck

Several good boats here in Los Suenos Marina. The inshore fishing in the Gulf is really good and the sail fish and marlin are here in very, very large numbers this time of year. Give me a shout if you looking for a larger boat or even a small outboard to fish inshore or check out some of the other charter boats . The guys on the Los Suenos charter dock fish hard and fish almost every day. Whatever you do just get down here and fish hard.
