There's a fish with your name on it in Herradura and R Sport Fishing will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Rocha is prepared to put you on fish.

These waters are known for Blue Marlin, White Marlin, Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Striped Marlin, Cubera Snapper, Sailfish, Red Snapper, Snook, Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, Roosterfish, Snowy Grouper, and more – with any luck, it won't be long before "Fish on!"

On these trips, it’s common to troll.

You'll find yourself aboard a 28' Center console with space for 5 passengers. It has outriggers, and everything else you need for a productive day on the water.

Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

A few items to bring include a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks provided on board.

If there's more you'd like to know about fishing with R Sport Fishing, feel free to send Capt. Rocha a message down below.

Happy on the High Seas

5 Hour Trip – Half Day (AM) on January 11, 2026 • 4 adults

Entire trip was tip top. We had a first timer with us, She caught, we all caught. Yellow fin were biting, landed 6. We really appreciated all that the crew did. They busted their tails to get us on fish, spent more time than they needed to and made this a very productive and enjoyable experience. They had some snacks, but not a lot. Sodas and water, some local beer, not enough for a party but good enough. There is storage so bring more beer and sandwiches if you think you will need them. I f you want, grab a lunch bag or three to hand out to the crew. If I ever roll back into Jaco, I will definitely get ahold of these cats again!!

Great Day on the Ocean blue

8 Hour Trip – Full Day (AM) on September 29, 2025 • 2 adults

The captain and mates were super friendly. We went on an all day trip. They worked the entire time to help us catch something. It was a slow day at sea with all the boats out there catching nothing. The water was super clear and flat so I assume the tuna were easily spooked. The crew never gave up though. They took us bottom fishing in 400 foot water and we landed a couple of Groupers. We were very happy with the effort and the experience they provided. They were a local captain and mates. The captain suggested a place to cook our catch. It was called The Hook Up. Wow ! We had them cook the grouper in blackened bites with a mango salsa. Delish!!!! It was a perfect end to a great day. Thank you all!

Great day out at sea!

5 Hour Trip – Half Day (AM) on April 24, 2025 • 2 adults

We had a great trip with R Sport Fishing! We we conveniently booked through the app and were picked up on the beach in front of our hotel. The captain and first mate weee kind, personable and did everything to make us comfortable. The boat was clean, provided shelter from the sun and came stocked with drinks. Once we hit our first fishing spot, we caught a small mahi. Sadly that’s where our luck ended, but the crew was relentless in their hunt and we eventually caught some small bottom feeding fish. They did all they could to help us catch something big but it just wasn’t in the cards for the day. Maybe because we brought a banana on board?! Overall we were pleased with price, accommodations and crew-would def book again!

Excellent afternoon of fishing

Half day after noon on March 4, 2025 • 4 adults

We had an outstanding afternoon with RSport Fishing. We met up with Captain Rocha and his mate a little early, and we were ready to head out in no time. Captain Rocha gave us a few options for the day, and we decided to go offshore in hopes of landing some bigger fish. This was our first time fishing like this, and Captain Rocha was excellent at explaining the setup, answering all our questions. We were fortunate enough to catch a mahi mahi, and the crew even filleted it for us to take back to our condo. We cooked it up, and it was absolutely delicious! We also hooked up on a couple of sailfish, which was an added bonus to an already incredible day on the water. I highly recommend RSport Fishing—it’s an experience you won’t want to miss!

Five star service

5 Hour Trip – Half Day (AM) on October 9, 2025 • 3 adults

We had an amazing time. The Captain and Crew were very friendly and kind. We caught Mahi and Yellowfin tuna. We were blessed to see many dolphins, some turtles and lots of birds. By the end of the trip we booked for the next day to enjoy Tortuga isal for a day trip. You could tell they love sharing their love for fishing with anyone who steps on board. They made everything so easy. Thank you so much for all the great memories!
