About Your Trip

Head out with Captain William to enjoy the perfect pacific breeze and hook up on some of Costa Rica's legendary sportfish! You'll be hunting for aggressive pelagic predators such as Marlin, Pacific Sailfish, Yellowfin Tuna, and more alongside one of Herradura's most experienced and successful charter crews.

Captain Brian and his crew utilize a range of techniques to bring in the big ones. Expect to troll extensively while hunting for fast fish such as Marlin
and Sailfish, and once your fish is hooked, get ready to to play him with big rods and heavy tackle.

Because this is an offshore trip, aiming for some of the widest-ranging pelagic fish, expect to steam out to at least five miles offshore before you start to hook up. On the day of the trip, you'll be heading out on Captain Brian's 32' Maverick. She's equipped with state-of-the-art fishing gear, and is an extremely comfortable ride as well.

Captain Brian will provide all the necessary gear, including rods, tackle, and bait. To maximize your experience on the water, bring along a pair of Polarized Sunglasses, Weather-appropriate Clothing, Sunscreen, and your Fishing License. Get ready to have a blast!
